Vitamin D3 in a powerful dose, dissolved in cold-pressed coconut oil for optimal absorption.

Vitamin D is essential for various functions in the body. We get very little sunshine and a typical diet contains almost no vitamin D, resulting in a host of inadequate levels and deficiencies.

Calcium absorption and bone maintenance
One of the most important functions of vitamin D is the hormonal role it plays in regulating blood levels of calcium and phosphorus. Vitamin D regulates the absorption of calcium in the intestines and the release of calcium from the bones to ensure constant calcium levels in the blood.
Insufficient vitamin D can lead to rickets in children, where the bones remain soft, or to osteomalacia in adults, where the bones are not built up enough and can break.*

Immune system
Vitamin D receptors are present in many cell types, including several immune cells, whose main job is to defend the body. Vitamin D helps regulate your immune system and there is a link between lower vitamin D levels and an increased prevalence of infections.*

Muscle function
Vitamin D receptors, which bind to vitamin D, are found in the muscles, where it activates the synthesis of proteins to maintain and build muscle. Vitamin D also plays a role in muscle contraction.*
