Life Extension Vitamin D3 1000 IU 90 softgels LP-0142607

Vitamin D3 may support healthy bone density, promote healthy cell differentiation and immune function, and support adequate vitamin D levels during the winter. Even if we are able to make a certain amount of vitamin D in our bodies, we often need additional amounts of vitamin D to maintain adequate levels. This extra amount of vitamin D can come from our diet, sunshine, or supplements. When vitamin D is ingested in the diet or produced in the skin, the liver and kidneys convert vitamin D into its active form known as 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D or vitamin D3. Virtually every type of tissue in your body has receptors for vitamin D, which means they all require vitamin D for proper function. It is recommended to take 1 softgel daily with food, or as recommended by a healthcare professional. People consuming more than 2,000 IU/day of vitamin D (from diet and supplements) should periodically obtain a serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D measurement. Do not exceed 10,000 IU per day unless recommended by your doctor. Vitamin D supplementation is not recommended for people with high blood calcium levels. Keep out of the reach of children. Do not exceed recommended dose. Do not buy if the outer seal is broken or damaged. If you are being treated for a medical condition or if you are pregnant or lactating, please consult your physician first. A food supplement should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place.
