Vitamin D appears in two units on labels, and the conversion is simple once you know it.

Two units

International units (IU) and micrograms (mcg). 40IU equals 1mcg, so 200IU is 5mcg. Newer labels often show both.

On the Punchies panel

The panel lists vitamin D at 200IU per five-gummy serving, with 20 percent of the daily value, alongside vitamin C at 30mg.

Compare carefully

Compare the same unit and the same serving size. A bag with a larger serving may look higher without being better. The panel is posted at punchiesprotein.com.

Ask before adding

Do not add vitamin D products without checking with your pediatrician, especially if your child already takes a supplement. Related reading: Vitamin gummies versus protein gummies on vitamin-gummies.com.
