Now High Potency Vitamin D3 1000IU Softgels, Pack of 180’s

Now High Potency Vitamin D3 1000IU Softgels is a 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. As we age, our bodies may absorb this important nutrient less efficiently. Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to mood disorders, chronic diseases and autoimmune diseases over the years. Vitamin D promotes calcium absorption in the gut and maintains adequate serum calcium and phosphate concentrations to enable normal mineralization of bone and to prevent hypocalcemic tetany. It is also needed for bone growth and bone remodeling by osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Without sufficient Vitamin D, bones can become thin, brittle, or misshapen. Vitamin D is essential in regulating the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, and facilitating normal immune system function. Getting a sufficient amount of vitamin D is important for normal growth and development of bones and teeth, as well as improved resistance against certain diseases. This formulation supports the maintenance of bones and teeth, and supports the health of the immune system, brain, and nervous system.
