/// PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Vitamin D is often called the “sunshine vitamin”, because the body produces Vitamin D naturally when the skin is directly exposed to sunlight. An estimated 50% of the people worldwide is affected by Vitamin D insufficiency, and it’s common across all ethnicities and age groups.⁽¹⁾ Different factors determine if a person has a Vitamin D deficiency. Examples are: the season of the year, lifestyle (indoor or outdoor activities), latitude and/or location where one lives, skin colour, age, sunscreen use etc. Very few foods contain Vitamin D and therefore supplementation can be recommended.

 

The general advantages of Vitamin D:

  - Contributes to optimal bone health⁽²⁾⁽³⁾⁽⁴⁾⁽⁵⁾⁽⁶⁾

  - Contributes to the immune system⁽⁷⁾⁽⁸⁾

  - Contributes to the maintenance of normal teeth⁽⁹⁾

  - Good for your general health⁽¹⁰⁾⁽¹¹⁾

 

The advantages of Vitamin D for athletes:

  - Contributes to the muscle function and muscle strength⁽¹²⁾⁽¹³⁾⁽¹⁴⁾⁽¹⁵⁾⁽¹⁶⁾

  - Increases the size and number of Type II (fast twitch) muscle fibers⁽¹⁷⁾

  - May improve athletic performance⁽¹⁷⁾⁽¹⁸⁾

  - Reduces the risk of stress fractures⁽¹⁹⁾⁽²⁰⁾

  - Reduces the risk of inflammation⁽²¹⁾⁽²²⁾

  - Reduces respiratory problems in athletes⁽²³⁾⁽²⁴⁾

Vitamin D3

Vitamin D is often called the “sunshine vitamin”, because the body produces Vitamin D naturally when the skin is directly exposed to sunlight. The sun’s ultraviolet B rays are absorbed by the cholesterol in the skin, which will rapidly convert to vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). Vitamin D3 is then transported to the liver and converted into calcifediol (25(OH)D). The 25(OH)D serum levels in the blood are measured to determine a person’s vitamin D status. Each serving contains 3000 IU / 75µg.
