I've been using the New Road Health Supply Vitamin D3 50,000 IU softgels for about three months now, and I can honestly say they've become a non-negotiable part of my weekly routine. As someone who spends most days indoors working from home, maintaining proper vitamin D levels has always been a challenge.

The convenience factor here is huge - just one tiny softgel every Sunday with breakfast. I love that I don't have to remember daily doses. The capsules are seriously easy to swallow, which matters more than you'd think when you're dealing with supplements long-term.

What surprised me most was the energy boost I noticed after about a month. My afternoon slumps became less intense, and my winter moodiness (which I now realize might have been vitamin D related) improved significantly. My nails also seem stronger - a nice bonus I wasn't expecting!

The packaging is smart too - each capsule comes in its own blister pack with clear weekday markings. This helped me avoid accidentally skipping weeks or doubling up. Though fair warning - like one reviewer mentioned, do check each capsule before taking as I did find one slightly damaged in my batch (but customer service promptly sent a replacement).

As someone who's tried various vitamin D supplements over the years, this high-potency weekly formula feels like it actually works rather than just being another pill to swallow. My recent bloodwork showed my levels are finally in the optimal range after struggling for years!
