Cholecalciferol is the biologically active form of vitamin D, which facilitates the optimal absorption of calcium and phosphorus within the gastrointestinal tract. Regular supplementation assists in maintaining physiological serum concentrations necessary for skeletal mineralisation and osteoblast activity. Additionally, this compound modulates both innate and adaptive immune responses by interacting directly with receptors present on white blood cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eVitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones, teeth, muscle function and immune function. Vitamin D also contributes to normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eVitamin D is often referred to as ‘the sunshine vitamin’ as it is naturally produced under the skin following exposure to sunlight. During winter periods we cannot synthesise vitamin D from sunlight because the sun is too low in the sky. Because it is difficult to obtain sufficient vitamin D from dietary sources alone, Public Health England recommends supplementation of vitamin D to maintain bone and muscle health.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eDietary sources of vitamin D include fortified foods, eggs and fatty fish. While most vitamin D3 supplements on the market are derived from the lanolin in sheep’s wool, Viridian Vitamin D3 capsules provide vitamin D3 in a clean, vegan form derived sustainably from lichen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch4\u003eRecommended Usage\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a food supplement, take one capsule daily with food, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch4\u003eComposition\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e      \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e      \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmount per serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e      \u003ctd\u003eVitamin D3 (cholecalciferol)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e      \u003ctd\u003e25mcg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch4\u003eOther Ingredients\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eVegan (HMPC) capsule (alfalfa)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDoes Not Contain\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eGMO, artificial fillers or palm oil\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eKosher certified\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuitable for vegans\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStorage\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore in a cool dry place (\u0026lt;25°C), away from sunlight.
