Vitamin D3 High Strength 4000 IU 365 Tablets

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble type of vitamin and its most useful property is the ability to help absorb and regulate the levels of calcium and phosphorus in our bodies - the elements important to keep our bones, muscles, teeth and gums healthy. Vitamin D also plays important role in the maintenance of our immune system. There are 2 types of Vitamin D: D2 and D3 of which D3 is thought to be more effective.

Few foods are naturally rich in Vitamin D, like fatty fish, red meat, liver and egg yolks. There are some types of food like cereals, milk and orange juice that are often fortified with Vitamin D. However, our body usually produces the vitamin it needs with the help of the sun’s ultraviolet rays (hence its nickname: 'the sunshine vitamin') so we have to get exposed to the sun to make sure our level of Vitamin D is ok; there are a few issues with that: it may be not too much sunshine in general in the region we live and, even if there's plenty, we have to remember that excessive exposure to the sun may be harmful to our skin.

Here comes the Vitamin D3 in the form of a dietary supplement: a good extra source of the vitamin when you need it and when you cannot get enough from natural sources. Each tablet contains 100µg (4000 IU) of Vitamin D3: the maximum safe daily intake for children from the age of 11 and adults, as recommended by NHS. Our product is in the form of micro-tablets and one small pack contains 365 tablets - that is your supply for a whole year!
