Bio-Vitamin D3, D-Pearls 38mcg, 80 capsules
Product name: Bio-Vitamin D3, D-Pearls 38mcg, 80 capsules Product type: dietary supplement Product description: Like other vitamins, vitamin D is essential. There are several types of vitamin D, but the two most important forms are ergocalciferol and cholecalciferol. Vitamin D is synthesized in the skin from cholesterol in response to adequate sunlight (UV radiation). Vitamin D synthesized from sunlight is the most effective source of vitamin D, but it is produced only when the sun is high in the sky. In much of Europe, this only happens during the summer, so only then can we produce sufficient levels of vitamin D. Vitamin D is available only from the diet. It is produced by some fungi and plants only when exposed to UV light. Both vitamin D require subsequent activation in the liver and kidneys to become biologically active. Scientists believe that both forms of vitamin D are equally effective in the body. However, depending on the measurement method used, vitamin D is 56-87% more effective than vitamin D in increasing blood levels of vitamin D. Furthermore, D is stored in adipose tissue three times more efficiently than D. Heaney RP, et al. Vitamin D Is More Potent Than Vitamin D2 in Humans. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2010.
