Vitamin D, also known as the "sunshine vitamin," is an essential vitamin that plays many important roles in the proper functioning of the body. Though classified as a vitamin, vitamin D functions as a key regulatory hormone for calcium and bone metabolism. Adequate vitamin D status is essential for ensuring normal calcium absorption and maintenance of healthy plasma calcium levels. Beyond bone support, vitamin D has many other roles in the body, including supporting normal cell growth, neuromuscular function, and immune function.
Numerous scientists now recognize that supplementation at levels greater than previously thought necessary may be important for helping maintain healthy bone remodeling and healthy vitamin D plasma levels. This product may be a useful dietary supplement for individuals wishing to support general health or whose requirements for vitamin D cannot be met by lower potency products.
