Vitamin D intake, when combined with sufficient calcium, a healthy diet and regular exercise may reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis in people with vitamin D deficiency
In a base of medium chain triglycerides for maximum absorption
Most people today spend far less time outdoors than before, and modern lifestyles often limit daily sun exposure. Because of this, vitamin D deficiency has become extremely common—studies show that 1 in 3 Canadians is deficient, and 2 in 3 have vitamin D levels below the recommended range. Low vitamin D may lead to symptoms such as reduced immune function, fatigue, muscle weakness, mood imbalances, and, in older adults, osteoporosis.
This supplement uses vitamin D3, the most natural and easily absorbed form of vitamin D.
Each softgel provides a daily dose of 2500 IU of vitamin D3, delivered in a base of organic coconut oil to support better absorption.
