VITABIOTICS Ultra Vitamin D3 1000iu Vegan 50 Gummies

Ultra Vitamin D gummies offer an enjoyable way to achieve optimal strength (1000IU) of Vitamin D in a single vegan gummy. Vitamin D plays a crucial role in overall well-being and contributes to the normal function of the immune system. Due to the numerous benefits of this key nutrient, many national governments now recommend Vitamin D supplementation for the entire population, especially during the autumn and winter months.

Vitamin D is naturally synthesized by the body upon exposure to sunlight. However, insufficient sunlight in many areas and the choice to limit sun exposure due to the negative health effects of UV rays have resulted in widespread Vitamin D deficiency globally.

What is Vitamin D?

Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin found in foods like mushrooms, oily fish, butter, and egg yolk, boasts functions and benefits that extend beyond bone health. Recent global research has unveiled the wide-ranging health benefits of this nutrient, including its contribution to:

• Normal function of the immune system
• Maintenance of normal bones and teeth
• Normal absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus
• Normal muscle function
• Normal blood calcium levels
• The process of cell division

For individuals aged 60 and above, a daily Vitamin D intake of 20µg or more from all sources has been shown to reduce the risk of falling associated with postural instability and muscle weakness. Falling is a risk factor for bone fractures among individuals aged 60 and older.

D3, the Preferred Bioactive Form Ultra Vitamin D provides effective levels of the preferred form of Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). D3 is ideal as it is the specific form produced in the human body, making it more effective than D2 found in some supplements.

Vitamin D – The Sunshine Vitamin While the body naturally manufactures Vitamin D upon exposure to sunlight, weak sunlight during winter months in many countries makes dietary supplements the best way to ensure adequate Vitamin D intake. Additionally, the body does not generate Vitamin D when behind a glass window, and sunscreens, even weak ones, can affect the body’s ability to generate vital Vitamin D.

Vitamin D in the Diet and Health Benefits Vitamin D is naturally present in some foods and fortified in others. A diet providing 3-4 µg of Vitamin D per day in the UK may not be sufficient, especially considering factors such as:

• More time spent indoors, particularly in autumn and winter.
• Increased focus on Vitamin D and its emerging role in supporting the normal immune system function.
• Government health advice to reduce sun exposure, resulting in less natural production of Vitamin D.
• Reduced sun exposure in certain population groups, such as older individuals, those who cover their skin, specific occupations, medical reasons, and individuals with darker skin tones.
• Increased dietary intolerances or allergies, including lactose and dairy restrictions, and those on specific diets.

Ultra Vitamin D provides D3, the preferred form of Vitamin D.
