D3 (Cholecalciferol)

D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is a form of vitamin D that your body produces when your skin is exposed to sunlight. It plays a vital role in helping your body absorb calcium and phosphorus, which are essential for healthy bones and teeth. D3 can also be obtained from foods like fatty fish, egg yolks, and fortified products, or through supplements. Adequate vitamin D levels support immune function, mood, and overall health. Deficiency can lead to bone problems like osteoporosis or rickets. Ensuring sufficient D3 is important for maintaining strong bones and overall well-being.
