120 softgels / 120 servings
- Bone Health
- Inflammation
- Immune Support
Problem:
A large percentage of the global population is insufficient (<30 ng/dl) or deficient (<20 ng/dl) in vitamin D. This is due to inadequate dietary intake as well as protection from the Sun. Vitamin D, a pro-hormone, functions to activate and/or regulate over 2000 genes in the human genome. There are vitamin D receptors on every type of cell in the human body. Having inadequate vitamin D is associated with diminished immune modulation, inflammatory regulation, bone strength and neurocognitive dysfunction, and many more conditions.
Solution:
Supplementation with vitamin D3 is critical to robust health. The average adult person requires between 4,000 and 7,000 iu to maintain healthy blood levels of Vitamin D.
Mechanism:
Vitamin D regulates and facilitates a vast array of physiological functions in the body through receptors on the surface of all cell types. It also regulates genetic activity.
Related:
Becoming sufficient in Vitamin D is paramount to robust health. It is one of the only standalone nutrients that represents such a wide effect on human health. There are many other products that may be used for health support, but they are generally considered secondary to Vitamin D in global importance to human health.
