Nutri Advanced's 30ml D3 with K2 drops combines vitamin K2 with D3, which contributes to maintaining healthy bones. It easily absorbs, because it's in drop form. Take once or twice daily by applying three drops directly to the tongue or in water. Our tester comments: "The most common consensus I have had from the consultations is that drops are the best way to absorb vitamin D and that the supplement should contain a D3 K2 combination."

One thing to note is that these D3 drops contain Cholecalciferol which is usually derived from sheep's wool, so it may not be suitable for vegans.

Our tester was impressed by the results of taking this vitamin D supplement. She comments: "I believe it has really increased my energy levels and strengthened my immune system." In addition, it tastes pleasantly of oranges; just take three drops on the tongue daily.

Viridian's reputation as one of the cleanest supplements on the market. Their D3 and K2 supplement offers a balanced blend of two essential nutrients that helps support your bone health, the immune system and so much more. A customer comments: "Long use by date, and I am very pleased with that."

A real bonus is that their vitamin D3 is plant-sourced, and the K2 is derived from fermented natto cultures – making it a good choice for those with a vegan lifestyle.

The great benefits lie in the combination and natural sourcing of the D3 and K2 vitamins – making it an excellent pick in liquid drops and spray form.

Customers comment that this is a very effective supplement. And like our tester, they thought the packaging was top-notch, with a classy glass jar and minimalist style, that makes it an elegant gift idea.

If you have difficulty swallowing pills, these Diso Dissolvable Vitamin Strips are a tasty alternative.

Natalie found them especially useful as an afternoon pick-me-up while working from home and not getting nearly enough sunshine.

Of all the products we tested, this one is the most creative. The little box of strips came in a package filled with colourful paper shreds. Also, there was a well-designed and informative booklet. You get one month's supply per box. It's convenient to pop the individually wrapped strips in your bag for when you're on the go – it makes a nice sweet treat that's calorie free too.
