Vitamin D-3 and its Many Health Benefits

You may have heard of vitamin D-3, also known as the "sunshine vitamin," but did you know that this essential nutrient does more than just help your body absorb calcium to maintain strong bones*? That's right, vitamin D-3 is also critical for supporting a strong immune system, promoting cell growth, and reducing inflammation. Read on to learn more about this important vitamin and how it can benefit your health.

Vitamin D-3 is a fat-soluble vitamin that can be obtained from food sources or produced by the body when skin is exposed to sunlight. Unfortunately, many people don't get enough vitamin D-3 from either source. This can lead to deficiency, which can put people at risk for a number of health problems including osteoporosis*, heart disease, cancer, and autoimmune diseases.

That's why it's so important to make sure you are getting enough vitamin D-3. Here are some of the ways you can do that:

1. Spend time outside in the sun every day: Just 10-15 minutes of sun exposure each day can help your body produce the vitamin D-3 it needs. Be sure to expose as much skin as possible without wearing sunscreen, as sunscreen will block the ultraviolet B (UVB) rays needed for vitamin D production.

2. Eat foods that are rich in vitamin D-3: Foods such as fatty fish (e.g., salmon, tuna, mackerel), eggs, beef liver, cheese, and fortified milk and cereals all contain high levels of vitamin D-3.

3. Take a supplement: If you don't feel like you're getting enough vitamin D from food or sun exposure, talk to your doctor about taking a supplement. This is especially important for people who are over the age of 60, as they tend to absorb less vitamin D from food than younger people do.

Vitamin D-3 is an important nutrient that offers a variety of health benefits beyond just maintaining strong bones*. If you think you might be deficient in vitamin D-3, there are a number of things you can do to increase your intake including spending time in the sun, eating foods rich in the nutrient, and taking a supplement.

Suggested Usage: Shake well. For adults, take 4 drops 1 to 5 times daily. For children, administer 4 drops once daily. Do not exceed recommended dose. Take directly or add to your favorite beverage. If the dropper contacts the lips or oral tissues, thoroughly wash and dry it before replacing in the bottle and closing it completely. Best when taken with a fat-containing meal.
