- Corrects widespread deficiency in vitamin D.
- Promotes good cardiovascular health.
- Strengthens bones, optimising of bone health.
Bone Health is a 100% natural supplement aimed at strengthening the bones. It contains four plant extracts in vegetarian capsules, traditionally used for their benefits in combatting bone loss: Astragalus membranaceus root, Cuscuta chinensis seeds, Eucommia ulmoides leaves and Rehmannia glutinosa root standardised to 2% flavonoids.
Research has shown that these four plants naturally help reduce the activity of osteoclasts (the bone resorption phase) and support that of osteoblasts (the bone formation phase).
Bone Health is the perfect complement to the bone function formulation Super Bone formula, which contains vitamins and minerals.
Bone Health is recommended for the following groups of people:
Daily dose: 2 vegetarian capsules Number of doses per pot: 30 |
Amount per dose |
Osteosine™, a patented blend of extracts of Astragalus membranaceus root, Cuscuta chinensis seeds, Eucommia ulmoides leaves, Rehmannia glutinosa root standardised to 2% flavonoids. | 250 mg |

Vitamin D3 5000 IU is an exceptional supplement containing 5000IU of vitamin D3 (the most bioavailable form) per softgel. It is enriched with sunflower oil to maximise its absorption.
Daily or twice a week supplementation with Vitamin D3 5000 IU produces a rapid increase in circulating levels of the vitamin, as confirmed by blood tests, and has a positive effect on cardiovascular, endocrine, nervous system, immune and cognitive function.
The latest studies show that between the months of October and April, almost everyone (1-4) living at a high latitude has an inadequate level of vitamin D (5-6). March sees levels reach their lowest point (7-8).
Vitamin D3 5000 IU is thus aimed at anyone living in France, Italy, Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal, Poland, the UK, Canada and the United States throughout autumn and winter.
Vitamin D is produced by the body on exposure of the skin to the sun’s ultra-violet rays (UVB). However, in temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, the conditions are not conducive to this process, both because of the sun’s angle of elevation and the weather during these seasons, as well as urban lifestyles: at this time of year, we tend to stay indoors and cover ourselves up too much to maintain adequate vitamin D production. Peak production rapidly plummets from November onwards and reserves are quickly exhausted.
Vitamin D3 5000 IU can also be used in the spring and summer by many groups of people (40% of individuals have inadequate levels even during these periods):
For all these groups of people, Vitamin D3 5000IU is often the safest way of quickly increasing their levels of vitamin D and of maintaining them throughout the year, now available to buy at Supersmart.
Vitamin D is not really a vitamin: it should actually be thought of as a hormone. It performs many functions in the body, the best-known of which are its key roles in the intestinal absorption and binding to bones of dietary calcium, in muscle function, in maintaining cognitive function, in supporting the immune system and in tissue cell renewal.
The effects of a lack of vitamin D may go unnoticed for years but in the long term, they can be serious: softening of bones (osteomalacia), osteoporosis, bone pain, muscle weakness, joint pain (particularly in the wrists, ankles and shoulders), migraines, increased risk of depression, insomnia, hair loss (10) …
Conversely, optimal vitamin D levels bring numerous benefits for our health:
Daily dose : 1 softgel Number of doses per box : 60 |

Vitamin D3 | 5000 IU |
