Vitamin D3, or cholecalciferol, is one of the two main variants of vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin now available to buy at Supersmart. It is present in nutritional supplements in the forms D2 (ergocalicferol) and D3. In the liver, both are converted into 25-hydroxy-vitamin D, or 25(OH)D. Over the last 10 years, research has demonstrated that vitamin D may offer a number of additional health benefits when given at the right dose.
What are the benefits associated with Vitamin D3 1000 UI?
- The role of vitamin D in bone health is long-established. One of its principal biological roles is to maintain normal calcium and phosphorus levels in the blood. By promoting calcium absorption, it helps to form and maintain strong bones.
- One scientific article hypothesized that seasonal infections such as influenza, could be due to the lower vitamin D levels typically seen during winter months, and not to an increase in viral activity.
- Low levels of 25(OH)D are associated with a higher incidence of hypertension, diabetes, obesity and elevated blood levels of triglycerides. In patients suffering from congestive cardiac insufficiency, daily administration of 2000 IU vitamin D combined with 500 mg calcium reduced levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines partly responsible for their condition.
- Has an immunomodulatory effect.
- Reduces predisposition to diabetes in elderly people, by slowing down insulin sensitivity.
- Significantly reduces the risk of falls in elderly people.
Vitamin D3 is generally well-tolerated in adults at daily doses up to 2000 IU. Several studies suggest it may be safe even at doses up to 10,000 IU/day, although health authorities have set the safe upper limit at 1000 IU/day. Scientists, however, believe a healthy adult needs close to 1000 IU/day. This dosage is available to buy at Supersmart.
