What is vitamin D3 and what effect does it have?
Vitamin D3 is also known as cholecalciferol. It is one of the most important of the D vitamins. Vitamin D can be produced by the body itself and is actually a (pro-) hormone. Through exposure to sunlight , humans produce vitamin D in the skin and can store it. Vitamin D is converted into the active vitamin D3 in the kidneys and liver[1].
The effect of vitamin D3 is particularly important for bone maintenance. It supports the absorption of calcium from the intestine so that it can be incorporated into the bones[2]. Calcium is particularly needed here as it is crucial for bone density [3].
How can a vitamin D deficiency occur?
Vitamin D production not only requires sufficient contact with sunlight, i.e. UVB rays. Latitude, time spent outdoors, time of year and time of day, weather, clothing, skin type and the use of sunscreen are also decisive factors[4].
If the body's own vitamin D3 production is impaired, a vitamin D deficiency occurs.
How can a vitamin D deficiency be prevented?
To prevent vitamin D deficiency and symptoms of deficiency , it is important to spend enough time outdoors. Vitamin D3 can also be supplied to the body through vitamin D-rich food. Animal foods, such as eggs or oily fish, are particularly good sources of vitamin D .[5]
In addition to a balanced diet, it can be useful to take high-quality vitamin D3 supplements . In addition to Doctor's Best Vitamin D3 Depot 5000 IU with 180 soft capsules, you can find here also Doctor's Best Vitamin D3 Depot 5000 I U with 360 softgels.
