Vitamin D3

SKU: FSV12

Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin that we can produce within the body and source it from our diet and from exposure to direct sunlight, or when an ultraviolet light source hits the skin and triggers vitamin D synthesis.


    Vitamin D:

  • - Helps in the maintenance of normal teeth
  • - Helps in the maintenance of bones
  • - Helps in the maintenance of muscle function
  • - It supports the normal function of the immune system
  • - It plays a role in the process of cell division

Product Benefits:

  • Contributes to the normal function of the immune system
  • Helps to maintain normal bones, teeth and muscle function
  • It has a role in the process of cell division

Biological facts: We need vitamin D to absorb calcium because, with an insufficient supply of it, we cannot form the “active” form of vitamin D” which then leads to insufficient calcium absorption from our diet. If we don’t eat plentiful supplies of calcium-rich food, we will leach calcium from the body’s own reserves in the skeleton. This causes a weakening of existing bone and prevents the formation of strong, new bone. People deficient in vitamin D and calcium are at higher risk of bone mass loss, and osteoporosis

Why Foodstate Vitamin D? Our Foodstate vitamin D supplement benefits from having active metabolites which are necessary to activate vitamin D function

INGREDIENTS Mineral enhanced yeast providing vitamin D3; vegetable magnesium stearate

Energy, protein, carbohydrate and fat content negligible. Suitable for Vegetarians. Oriental and Western guarantee this product FREE FROM: wheat; starch; gluten; milk products (lactose); added sugars; colourings; flavourings and preservatives. Contains no live yeast at time of manufacture.

Q: Why are foodstate supplements in lower dosage?

Ans: It’s because they are much better absorbed used and retained than ordinary supplements. Our Calcium for example is 30mg whereas most inorganic forms are up to 1000mg. Human adults need 30mg per day of food calcium so that is what we provide, rather than 1000mg of inorganic calcium that is very difficult to absorb

 

Q: Can I take foodstate supplements if I am yeast intolerant?

Ans. Absolutely. We use nutritional yeast as a growing medium for several of our products because it is such an effective, nutritionally complete growing medium. There is no hint whatsoever of yeast in the finished product, it is completely removed during manufacture and is entirely safe even for people who are highly yeast intolerant
