Vegetable Vitamin D3 20 ml

Nicknamed the "sunshine vitamin," vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that primarily comes from cutaneous biosynthesis under the influence of ultraviolet radiation. Only 10 to 20% of vitamin D comes from an exogenous source, via the absorption of vitamin D-rich foods. This cutaneous synthesis depends, among other things, on skin pigmentation, the use of sunscreen, the season, and latitude. Currently, due to urbanization, a sedentary lifestyle, and recommendations on sun exposure, cutaneous vitamin D production is decreasing.

Vitamin D has many properties. It is a major component of phosphocalcic metabolism and is involved in bone mineralization and the maintenance of adequate serum calcium levels. It also contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and the maintenance of normal muscle function.

There are two forms of dietary vitamin D: vitamin D2 or ergocalciferol synthesized by plants, and vitamin D3 or cholecalciferol, mainly of animal origin, which is more effective than vitamin D2.

Our plant-based vitamin D3, derived from algae, is a natural and innovative alternative that is easily assimilated by the body (solubilized in rapeseed oil to guarantee optimal bioavailability).
