Vitamin D & Boron Complex
This Swanson Ultra Vitamin D & Boron Complex is a basic vitamin and mineral supplement containing two active ingredients. It provides 10,000 mcg of Vitamin D and 6,000 mg of Boron. However, research suggests the Vitamin D dosage in this product may be significantly underdosed for many common applications, impacting its overall efficacy. The product received an N+ Score of 41, earning an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average quality assessment from Nutrienting.com. While it boasts 100% label transparency, its primary weakness lies in ingredient adequacy, as indicated by the underdosed Vitamin D. This product might be considered by individuals seeking a simple, transparent supplement, though potential users should carefully evaluate the provided dosages against their specific needs.
