Is Thorne vitamin D NSF certified?
Our picks, by labeled strength, with a link to buy them: see where to buy. A strength with nothing certified at it has no pick, and is not listed there.
Partly: 2 of the 7 Thorne vitamin D3 packages we track, not all of them. NSF lists a specific package against each certificate, and a certificate is what NSF actually stands behind, so a package the listing does not name is treated as unconfirmed rather than certified. Every row below was read against NSF's own listing, and the listing ID is shown.
One listing names the D-5,000 in its 60 and 120 counts, which are the bottles sold with the NSF mark. The D-1,000, the D-10,000 and the two liquids have no listing.

What the listings say
The records here rest on 1 Certified for Sport listing (1221010). NSF records some brands under more than one spelling, so a search on the brand name alone can miss a listing; ours are found from a full read of the directory, then opened one by one.
5 products here have no NSF Certified for Sport listing. That is an absence in a database, not a failed test: these programs certify what a company submits to them, and NSF Certified for Sport is one program among several. 4 of their labels print NSF's Contents Certified mark, which belongs to a different NSF program, one this page does not read.

Where to buy: the picks, by labeled strength
The pick is the cheapest certified product, at the exact package sold where the certifier names packages, with no adverse finding on record, a price its retailer let us read recently, and no more than a year’s supply at the label’s serving; per delivered dose where the retailer publishes a delivery rate. Where none does, it is the cheapest such product before delivery, and it says how far the order is from free delivery. It is the same pick the category page shows.

What this rests on: prices we last recorded at the retailer named on each product page, which go stale, and each page says when it was checked; the products we track, not every product sold, and Amazon and Walmart are not among the stores; listings and labels read at the source, each linked from the page.
