Vita-D 200,000IU

Vitamin D is a crucial fat-soluble vitamin that plays a key role in maintaining overall health, particularly in regulating calcium and phosphate levels in the body. These minerals are vital for maintaining healthy bones, teeth, and muscles.

There are two main forms of Vitamin D:

1. Vitamin D2 (Ergocalciferol):
   This form of Vitamin D is typically derived from plants, such as fungi (mushrooms) and yeast. It is often found in fortified foods and is available as a supplement.

2. Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol):
   Vitamin D3 is synthesized naturally in the skin when exposed to sunlight (UVB rays). It can also be consumed through certain foods or supplements. This form of Vitamin D is considered more effective at raising Vitamin D levels in the blood compared to D2.

Both forms of Vitamin D play an important role in ensuring proper calcium absorption in the intestines, promoting bone health, and supporting immune function. It is essential for people to maintain adequate Vitamin D levels, particularly in areas with limited sunlight or for individuals who may not get enough through diet or sun exposure.
