Vitamin D3 400iu (Cholecalciferol) Tablets - Food Supplement Why Supplement with Vitamin D3?_x000D_Latest government statistics have shown that vitamin D is the nutrient of most concern in Britons. This is due to 29% of adults and 37% of children aged 1118 having levels that indicate a clinical deficiency. Although we can synthesise vitamin D through sunlight, we all appreciate that good weather, even during the summer months is not guaranteed._x000D_Because of this and for the fact that foods containing vitamin D are sparse, the Department of Health recommends that everyone considers a 400iu (10) vitamin D supplement through the months of September to April. ‘At risk groups such as older adults and those with dark skin are encouraged to take a supplement yearround._x000D_Expert Support for Vegans _x000D_Standard vitamin D3 has traditionally been sourced from lanolin, meaning it is suitable for vegetarians but not vegans. Simply Supplements have gone to great lengths to obtain a plantbased source of D3 from lichen, helping to ensure that the hundreds of thousands of vegans in the UK can effortlessly maintain optimum vitamin D levels._x000D_Although vitamin D2 is usually veganfriendly, it is widely accepted to be less effective and bioavailable than D3. The main role of vitamin D in the body is helping the body absorb and utilise calcium. Thus, vitamin D has an important role in bone and muscle function. It is also a key contributor to a healthy immune system, which is an important consideration, especially during the colder, darker months.
