Vitamin D3 Tablets | 400 iu Supplement for Immune & Bone Health | Oxford Vitality (365)

What is Vitamin D3 You may have heard of the Vitamin D deficiency disease before, known as rickets. Rickets was fairly common until around 100 years ago when scientists discovered the prevention factor in 1914: Vitamin D. Rickets is most often found in children and is characterized by bowed legs, brought on by weak leg bones which can’t support the body’s weight. Although rickets is less common nowadays, it still occurs in poorer countries. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that occurs in two main forms: D2 and D3. Recent data has shown that Vitamin D3 has a more beneficial effect on the body. Vitamin D can be synthesized from the action of sunlight on our skin, as UVB rays convert a chemical in the skin to Vitamin D. Although many people don’t favour cod liver oil, this is a great source of Vitamin D as sunlight-converted Vitamin D is stored in the liver of many animals, particularly oily fish. The Vitamin D we have used in our 400iu tablets is cholecalciferol. Benefits of Vitamin D3 Vitamin D3 has numerous health benefits, starting with its contribution to normal immune system function. The vitamin also contributes to the absorption and utilization of Calcium and Phosphorous and normal blood Calcium levels. Vitamin D3 contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and normal teeth. This helps to reduce the risk of falls associated with postural instability and muscle weakness, as falling is commonly seen as a risk factor for fractures amongst men and women over the age of 60. Vitamin D3 also has a role in the process of cell division. If you are interested in bone and cardiovascular health, you may be interested in our combination tablets; Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2-MK4.
