Product Information
Vitamin D3 supplements, Bio-Vitamin D3 from Pharma Nord contains vitamin D3 dissolved in cold-pressed olive oil and encapsulated in small, easy-to-swallow pearls of soft gelatine.
Vitamin D contributes to normal functioning of the immune system, contributes to the maintenance of normal teeth and bones, supports normal muscle functioning, and plays a role in the bodys cell division and specialisation.
When UV rays hit the skin, the active form of vitamin D is formed. The bodys ability to produce vitamin D is reduced with age, however the vitamin D synthesis is inhibited by lack of sunshine or covering up with clothes. Pregnant and breast-feeding mothers, young children, elderly people and those with dark skin may also require supplemental vitamin D due to inadequate UV exposure.
Why Pharma Nord Bio-Vitamin D3:
Manufactured to pharmaceutical standards.
We offer four strengths of Vitamin D3, in oil-based capsule form for enhanced absorption.
Contains a form of vitamin D (cholecalciferol) naturally produced in the skin.
How much should you take?
Pharma Nord recommends the following...
800IU - 1-5 capsules per day, or as recommended by a physician.
Not suitable for vegetarians or vegans.
Short on sunshine? Take action!
The UK government recommends vitamin D3 supplementation for several key groups of people, including all pregnant and breast-feeding mothers, all young children from 6 months to 5 years old, people over 65 years of age and those with low or no exposure to the sun.
