Description
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin existing in two forms main, with very similar biological activity: cholecalciferol (D3) deriving from cholesterol and synthesized by animal organisms, and ergocalciferol (D2) deriving from ergosterol present in plants. The main function of vitamin D is to regulate calcium metabolism by promoting intestinal absorption; it also contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. Exposure to sunlight should be sufficient to cover the body’s demands, also in the summer months the endogenous overproduction of vitamin D allows its accumulation for the winter months. However, in some conditions a vitamin D supplementation may be useful: for individuals who do not expose themselves sufficiently to sunlight such as the elderly in retirement homes, night shift workers, for those suffering from intestinal, kidney or liver diseases.
Vitamin D drops by Jamieson is formulated with Quali® -D , vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) natural and pure, no GMO, produced without the use of animal tests. It is the same form of vitamin D synthesized by our body when exposed to sunlight. Quali® -D derives from lanolin , an abundant and renewable source of vitamin D. Lanolin is extracted from the wool of sheep raised in New Zealand and North Australia where they graze outdoors and in sunlight.
Vitamin D drops of Jamieson is ideal for those who do not like to ingest tablets or capsules. The product is practical and easy to take : just put a drop on the tongue, or on food (eg yogurt) or in drinks.
