Omega-3 Plus Vitamin D3 Capsules

Because we found a way to make it better.

When we discovered a new refining process that let us concentrate the fish oil without compromising on quality, we decided to upgrade the whole Life & Soul range. Now it's Rise & Shine's turn to shine (sorry). We're always following the latest research, and higher doses of omega-3 have consistently shown to support real health benefits. As a team, we're an ambitious bunch, and we're always looking to make our supplements match the science. Hopefully, this works out well for you, too.

Nope. The amount of Vitamin D is exactly the same. We've only upgraded the fish oil across the range.

You’ll still get a hearty 25µg / 1,000 IU of vitamin D3 per 2 capsules. That’s 500% of your Nutrient Reference Value (NRV).

If you're looking to dose up on vitamin D because you're deficient or feeling like you might need some immune support, Beam & Balance gives you 4,000 IU in 3 sprays. Or try take our Life & Soul Daily capsules or liquid to get the most powerful omega-3 and vitamin D combination.

Fish oils and Vitamin D are naturally meant to be together, they’re perfect partners that nutritionally complement each other.

As a food, oily fish provide us with a rich source of Vitamin D, yet during the gentle and careful extraction of omega-3 oils for nutritional supplements, the Vitamin D gets left behind.

Rise & Shine is simply our way of reuniting these potent and powerful nutrients that play a pivotal role in our health, across all developmental stages and phases of life.

We use Vitamin D3V®, which is Cholecalciferol of 100% plant origin, produced from algae.

Conventional Vitamin D3 is obtained from animal-origins including lanolin (sheep woolgrease) or animal skins. Vitamin D3V® is chemically identical to animal-origin Vitamin D3. As well as being natural rather than animal-origin, it also overcomes concerns about quality and purity. Our process ensures zero residual pesticides or other contaminants.

Vitamin D3V® offers a 100% sustainable and traceable end-to-end supply chain process with complete control on quality and purity. Unlike Sheep’s Wool, our process uses zero pesticides and therefore the chance of residual pesticides is non-existent in Vitamin D3V®.

Yes, Rise & Shine is suitable for pescatarians.

Our Vitamin D source is Vitamin D3V®, which is Cholecalciferol of 100% plant origin, produced from algae.

2 daily Rise & Shine capsules provides a plentiful dose of Vitamin D3 and omega-3: 1,035mg of EPA, 470mg of DHA and 25ug (micrograms) of Vitamin D3 or 1,000iu, the most widely recommended daily dose.

Suitable for adults (including pregnant women) and children over 12.

Children and teens over 12 can take up to two capsules of Rise & Shine.

For children under 12, there isn’t enough specific research to establish safe upper limits of EPA and DHA for children, the EFSA hasn’t set an official daily maximum for children under 12. So, we have created our own recommendations based on research from specialists like Dr Rachel Gow, a nutritional neuroscientist who specialises in omega-3 and child development.

Dr Gow’s findings suggest that daily doses between 500mg and 1,000mg of combined EPA and DHA can be effective for children. Our Action Heroes sits comfortably within this range.

If you still prefer to use Rise & Shine capsules, we recommend sticking to 1 capsule for children under 12, unless advised otherwise by a healthcare professional.

Another thing to consider is that the capsules are full-size and may be tricky for small humans to swallow, so again, you might prefer Action Heroes or Life & Soul Mini Capsules in combination with Beam & Balance, our vitamin D spray. Again, always stick to the recommended dose. It’ll be different for children.

During pregnancy, you can continue taking the full dose of two capsules daily. If you're taking other supplements containing vitamin D, check your total daily intake. Or try our specially formulated pregnancy product Mums & Bumps.

25 micrograms (1,000 iu) of Vitamin D3. The NRV (Nutrient Reference Value) of 10 mcg or 400 IU a day is recommended for healthy individuals.

The carrier oil for the Vitamin D3 raw material is MCT (medium chain triglycerides) oil.

The fish oil in Rise & Shine is the same as the iconic Life & Soul omega-3 with the added benefit of vitamin D3. Rise & Shine contains slightly less EPA and DHA per dose (13% less) compared to our Life & Soul range to make room for the vitamin D3.

You could, but it wouldn't be necessary and would cost you more money.

You'd be better off buying Rise & Shine if you want a maintenance dose of omega-3 and Vitamin D.

If you want more Vitamin D, you should buy Life and Soul and our high strength vitamin D spray Beam & Balance.

Rise & Shine doesn't contain any K2, as the dose of D3 they provide is a maintenance dose and not considered high enough to be crucial to need the two together.

The combination of vitamin D + K2, ensures that all the calcium vitamin D transports, ends up in the bones rather than potentially depositing in the arteries (sometimes the kidneys but this is less common).

You’re not going to be hugely increasing calcium transport with our 1,000 IU. Plus, dietary calcium is not usually seen to cause deposits unless someone is hugely inflamed, or taking poor quality calcium supplements.

Generally, when supplementing with D3, you won't need to consider adding K2 alongside until taking doses of around 3000-5000IU. Although we are all different, so if you're suffering from any health concerns it's best to consult a Nutritional Therapist or your GP.

You can absolutely take a separate K2 alongside Rise & Shine if you'd rather for peace of mind. Or, try our Life & Soul Capsules (our hero omega-3s), with Beam & Balance (our vitamin D + K2 spray) alongside.

Rise & Shine aren't suitable for those with an allergy to fish or coconut.
