Natures Sunshine Vitamin D3 -- The body manufactures Vitamin D through sun exposure, which makes it difficult to obtain adequate amounts of vitamin D during cloudy or winter months. Vitamin D comes in two forms, D2 and D3. Of the two, D3 is more bioactive.
In the body, vitamin D is responsible for maintaining normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus and for helping to build strong bones. Vitamin D works with other vitamins, minerals and hormones to promote bone mineralization. Additionally, research shows that vitamin D may help support a healthy immune system. Sophisticated experiments have demonstrated that Vitamin D3 is essential for the activation of immune cells needed to seek out and destroy infectious invading microbes. Without this activation, infections such as influenza and the common cold appear to be more severe and longer lasting.
NSP Vitamin D3 contains 100 mcg per 2 tablets (500% Daily Value) derived from lanolin harvested from the wool fat of sheep from New Zealand and Australia. These animals are certified BSE-free.
