Vitamin D D3 1,000 IU Tablets - 120 Tablets

Our super strength Vitamin D3 is a max strength supplement with 120 tablets per bottle and suitable for all ages.

Super Strength Vitamin D3 is known as the sunshine vitamin. There are two types of Vitamin D - Vitamin D2 and Vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 is naturally found in the human body and is synthesised in the skin. Studies have consistently shown that, functionally, vitamin D3 is at least 300% more effective than D2.

Very few foods in nature contain vitamin D. The flesh of fatty fish (such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel) and fish liver oils are among the best sources.

When ultraviolet rays from the Sun hits the skin, the active form of Vitamin D is formed. Your body’s ability to create vitamin D drops gradually as you age, however, the vitamin D synthesis is inhibited by lack of sunshine or covering up with clothing.

Vitamin D, especially Vitamin D3, is recommended because:

The body's preferred source of Vitamin D is D3

Keep your Vitamin D levels in check

Normally, we obtain Vitamin D through our diet (dairy) and the sun. Very few foods in nature contain vitamin D. The flesh of fatty fish (such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel) and fish liver oils are among the best sources. It's not always easy to get the recommended amount of Vitamin D3 daily.

For all ages, but most important for those aged 60+

Without Vitamin D, our bodies cannot effectively absorb calcium, which is essential to good bone health. As we get older, our risks associated with falling increase. Daily Vitamin D intake can assist in the reduction of falls associated with muscle weakness and instability.

You may have read about the fantastic health benefits of Vitamin D, as new research shows that most people should be taking a higher level of Vitamin D than previously suggested. With today's modern lifestyles, our day-to-day life may restrict our usual form of absorbing Vitamin D - the sun.

Vitamin D supplements are recommended for people of all ages, and are very important for adults. As we get older, our body's ability to create vitamin D naturally is reduced, so supplementation is important. Vitamin D3 is also beneficial for supporting ageing bones and joints, as it increases the body's ability to absorb calcium.

Always check the maximum recommended dose for your age when choosing Vitamin D3 supplements, and make sure you aren't consuming too much. When you buy direct from Evolution Slimming you can rest assured that you are buying from a trusted UK supplier.

How much Vitamin D should I take?

The Department of Health recommends that:

• Breastfed babies from birth to one year of age should be given a daily supplement containing 8.5 to 10mcg of vitamin D, to make sure they get enough.
• Babies fed infant formula should not be given a vitamin D supplement until they are receiving less than 500ml (about a pint) of infant formula a day, because infant formula is fortified with vitamin D
• Children aged 1 to 4 years old should be given a daily supplement containing 10mcg of vitamin D
• Adults should take no more than 100mcg per day, which is 4 of our capsules
