Analysis

Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw D3 2000 IU is primarily designed to deliver Vitamin D3 in a 'raw food' form, which is often favored by consumers seeking more natural nutrient sources. The inclusion of a Raw Probiotic & Enzyme Blend and a Raw Organic Fruit & Vegetable Blend significantly enhances its general health benefits by supporting digestion and providing additional micronutrients. While it includes 'Omega-9 Fatty Acid from Chlorella,' the quantity of 250mg from this source is not substantial enough to be a primary contributor to heart health through Omega-9s when compared to the robust profiles of dedicated Omega 3-6-9 supplements. Online reviews and nutritionist perspectives typically praise Garden of Life for its whole-food approach and clean ingredients, making it a strong choice for a general Vitamin D supplement. However, for specific cardiovascular support via comprehensive fatty acids, it's less competitive.

Pros
  • Provides a good dose of Vitamin D3 (2000 IU) from a whole-food source.
  • Includes a beneficial Raw Probiotic & Enzyme Blend for digestive support.
  • Contains a Raw Organic Fruit & Vegetable Blend, offering additional nutrients and antioxidants.
  • Generally well-regarded by consumers for its clean, 'raw' ingredients.
Cons
  • The Omega-9 fatty acid content from Chlorella is not a significant amount for robust cardiovascular support.
  • Not a comprehensive source of essential fatty acids for heart health compared to Omega 3-6-9 blends.
  • Price per serving is higher for a Vitamin D supplement when not fully leveraging Omega benefits.

Categories
Omega-9 50.0
The Omega-9 fatty acid is sourced from Chlorella, and while present, the quantity of 250mg is not comparable to the higher concentrations found in dedicated Omega-9 rich oils or comprehensive Omega 3-6-9 blends that truly aim to supplement this category.
Goals
General Health 85.0
This product is strong for general health due to its adequate Vitamin D3 dosage, which supports bone and immune health, and the inclusion of a comprehensive probiotic, enzyme, and fruit/vegetable blend that aids digestion and provides broad nutritional support.
Heart Health 60.0
While Vitamin D plays a role in cardiovascular health, the specific contribution of Omega-9 from Chlorella in this product is too low to offer significant direct heart health benefits compared to alternative supplements rich in beneficial Omega-3s and a balanced profile of other fatty acids.
