I suffer from mood swings along with a low baseline of depression, and a friend suggested Vit. D supplements. It is true that I had avoided the sun for 4 summers straight while on a moderate dose of lithium (NO heat/sun tolerance), so taking vit. D seemed that it might help with that everyday lack of energy/ low mood.
It did! I started taking 2 of these tablets per day about a month ago, and still I do not go a day without taking at least one. Since my mood has improved going OFF of several meds (including lithium), I'm now down to about 1 a day - unless my mood starts to dip. I think this will be a life-saver in the winter. Esp. since I'm mildly lactose intolerant and do not down a whole lot of fortified milk.
Have not experienced any interactions with the anti-depressant or anti-anxiety meds.

    Comments about GNC Vitamin D-3 1000 IU, Tablets, 180 ea:

    I try to be health concious but an not into taking pills for every little thing. After speaking with Dr's and doing my own research I found Omega-3 DHA and Vitamin-D are the only vitamins/suppliments I will take. I like GNC products so I bought this. The pills are small and easy to swallow. Bottom line, I like this and will continue to buy it.

        Pill size 15 times larger than Andrew Weil's Vitamin D. Which indicates to me that GNC has added an excess of fillers.

            Comments about GNC Vitamin D-3 1000 IU, Tablets, 180 ea:

            My doctor told me that people with MS must take this vitamin as we are deficient in it. Also because I have fair skin and can no longer go in the sun, this is the easiest way for my body to get vitamin D.

                Comments about GNC Vitamin D-3 1000 IU, Tablets, 180 ea:

                A rather large round tablet with no enteric coating at all making it very dry and hard to swallow. If you concentrate on where it is in your mouth and have plenty of water, you can be successful, but it would seem a better form could be available to make this useful and effective product easier to take. I hope GNC will consider changing the form.

                        I suffer from mood swings along with a low baseline of depression, and a friend suggested Vit. D supplements. It is true that I had avoided the sun for 4 summers straight while on a moderate dose of lithium (NO heat/sun tolerance), so taking vit. D seemed that it might help with that everyday lack of energy/ low mood.
                        It did! I started taking 2 of these tablets per day about a month ago, and still I do not go a day without taking at least one. Since my mood has improved going OFF of several meds (including lithium), I'm now down to about 1 a day - unless my mood starts to dip. I think this will be a life-saver in the winter. Esp. since I'm mildly lactose intolerant and do not down a whole lot of fortified milk.
                        Have not experienced any interactions with the anti-depressant or anti-anxiety meds.
