D3 - 120 Softgels

Product Description
D3 softgels supply this key vitamin in a highly-absorbable liquid softgel form.
$10.00
Maximum quantity available reached.

D3 softgels supply this key vitamin in a highly-absorbable liquid softgel form.  Vitamin D is normally obtained from the diet or produced by the skin from the ultraviolet energy of the sun.  However, it is not abundant in food.  As more people avoid sun exposure, Vitamin D supplementation becomes even more necessary to ensure that your body receives an adequate supply.



D3 is a Vitamin

An organic substance that is essential in very small amounts in the body, necessary for normal growth and activity.  It is also a pro-hormone:  A precursor to hormones.  Once D3 is in the body, it goes through two conversions -- one in the liver and one in the kidneys.  From these conversions, we get the pro-hormone calcidiol and the steroid hormone called calcitriol.  Together, these two make a very powerful impact on our health.

The body cannot manufacture or synthesize vitamin D on its own.  Although some foods contain vitamin D, the majority of our vitamin D was meant to be derived from drinking up the sun!  Unfortunately, many of us are confined to an office all day, working indoors.  And even if we do get some time outside, a variety of things affect our ability to get quality sun-saturation:  Seasons, geographic latitude, cloud cover, smog, time of day and sunscreen.  (Sunscreen? Yes, sunscreen!)  In these situations, supplementing with vitamin D3 can make all the difference.


How Much Vitamin D is "Natural"?

Research has found that exposing plenty of skin (wearing a swimsuit, for example) to midday sun for about 20 minutes -- or until the skin just turns lightly pink , not burned -- results in the body receiving levels of D3 ranging from 10,000 IU's to 50,000 IU's.  In these natural circumstances, the skin makes far more D3 than the current RDA suggests is necessary for good health.  We would suggest that, while the RDA of vitamin D will keep you alive, a *lot* more might keep you vitally healthy, particularly if you rarely see the sun!


Why so important?

Vitamin D does wonders in the body.  Most know that it plays a key role in regulating calcium in the body, promoting absorption which helps bone mineralization to occur.   Adequate calcium and vitamin D intake, along with a health diet, are essential to reduce osteoporosis risk, but there are also other factors. 

Vitamin D doesn't stop there, however.  It is widely considered to be a powerful immune booster.


Interestingly, if you read through scientific studies, you will find a theme that low vitamin D is common condition among those suffering from a variety of ailments.  That's not to say that vitamin D will prevent all of those ailments, but low D certainly does seem to be a major risk factor. 


Last, but certainly not least, vitamin D3 is an immense contributor to controlling the immune system and helping to stave off "bugs" of all sorts.  Seemingly little attacks on your health can be some of the most draining, often going through the entire family and leaving everyone worn out.  Help minimize the down-time with a "bottle of sunshine"
