Science
D2 and D3 are bioequivalent.
"The two major forms of vitamin D — D2 (ergocalciferol) and D3 (cholecalciferol) — have been reported to exhibit identical responses in the body, so for the purpose of converting from IU to mcg, we consider them to be bioequivalent."
U.S. FDA, Guidance for Industry, August 2019.
Clinical
Respiratory support.
"Meta-analysis of individual participant data from 10,933 participants across 25 randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials — vitamin D2 or D3 supplementation reduced the risk of acute respiratory tract infection among all participants."
