What is Vitamin D3?

In summer and winter, the need for vitamin D is often much higher than previously thought. Researchers now know that previous recommendations for optimal levels of vitamin D were far too low. Vitamin D not only helps strengthen bones; it protects against dementia, depression, diabetes, obesity, certain cancers and multiple sclerosis.

Vitamin D deficiency can also be induced by drugs. Medications that can reduce vitamin D levels in the body include: antacids, anticonvulsants, bile acid sequestrants (to lower cholesterol), mineral oil, Orlistat – (a drug to lose weight), H2 blockers and proton pump inhibitors (to reduce stomach acidity in cases of gastritis).

Vitamin D3 plays an important role in the assimilation of calcium and phosphorus as well as in their fixation in bones and teeth. This vitamin prevents the installation of rickets, hence the name of anti-rickets vitamin. Vitamin D3 also has a role in the metabolism of magnesium, iron and carbohydrates, as well as in maintaining an optimal ratio between calcium and phosphorus. For children, depending on age, the daily requirement of vitamin D is 400-1,000 U.I. However, the need for vitamin D increases in case of rickets, tetany, spasmophilia, osteomalacia and osteoporosis, tooth decay, fractures, infectious diseases and skin tuberculosis. In children, vitamin D3 is essential for the proper development of bones and teeth
