Why Supplement with Vitamin D3?
Latest government statistics have shown that vitamin D is the nutrient of most concern in Britons. This is due to 29% of adults and 37% of children aged 11-18 having levels that indicate a clinical deficiency. Although we can synthesise vitamin D through sunlight, we all appreciate that good weather, even during the summer months is not guaranteed.
Because of this and for the fact that foods containing vitamin D are sparse, the Department of Health recommends that everyone considers a 400iu (10µg) vitamin D supplement through the months of September to April. ‘At risk’ groups such as older adults and those with dark skin are encouraged to take a supplement year-round.
Expert Support for Vegans
Standard vitamin D3 has traditionally been sourced from lanolin, meaning it is suitable for vegetarians but not vegans. Simply Supplements have gone to great lengths to obtain a plant-based source of D3 from lichen, helping to ensure that the hundreds of thousands of vegans in the UK can effortlessly maintain optimum vitamin D levels.
Although vitamin D2 is usually vegan-friendly, it is widely accepted to be less effective and bioavailable than D3. The main role of vitamin D in the body is helping the body absorb and utilise calcium. Thus, vitamin D has an important role in bone and muscle function. It is also a key contributor to a healthy immune system, which is an important consideration, especially during the colder, darker months.
* Results may vary from person to person, any and all supplements should be used in conjunction with a balanced and healthy diet. If you are unsure about taking supplements consult a doctor or pharmacist before use.
