Vitamin D3 125 mcg (5000 IU) 100 Rapid Release Softgels

Strong bones and a reliable immune system are desires that lie at the heart of everyone. The dietary supplement Vitamin D3 125 mcg (5000 IU) 100 Rapid Release Softgels from Puritan's Pride is designed to support you in achieving these aspirations! Vitamin D3 plays an extremely important role in our health, supporting a number of processes in the body. Also known as the 'sunshine vitamin', it is mainly synthesised when our skin is exposed to sunlight, making the sun its natural source. During the winter and autumn periods, when the days become shorter and our exposure to sunlight is limited, the risk of vitamin D3 deficiency increases significantly. It is also worth noting that vitamin D3 is fat-soluble, which means that its absorption in the body is supported by the presence of fats in the diet.

Vitamin D3 is particularly valuable for the osteoarticular system, playing a key role in regulating mineral metabolism. It helps to maintain adequate levels of calcium and phosphorus in the body. Calcium is an essential ingredient for building strong bones and vitamin D3 aids its absorption in the gut, resulting in better mineralisation and a reduced risk of osteoporosis. This enables the body to effectively maintain bone density, which is particularly important for middle-aged people and seniors. In the context of the immune system, vitamin D3 plays a fundamental role in supporting the production of immune cells such as T and B lymphocytes. T lymphocytes are responsible for directly fighting pathogens and regulating the immune response, while B lymphocytes produce antibodies that neutralise infections. Adequate levels of these cells in the body are therefore crucial for effective defence against viruses, bacteria and other pathogens.
