Evidence indicates that vitamin D3 is more effective at raising and maintaining blood levels of vitamin D compared to D2. Pure Encapsulations use vitamin D3 derived from lanolin, a natural source that closely resembles the form produced by your skin in response to sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Benefits of Vitamin D Supplementation*\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBone Health:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitamin D contributes to the normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus, helping to maintain normal bones.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmune Function:\u003c\/strong\u003e It supports the normal function of the immune system by binding to receptors on immune cells.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMuscle Function:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitamin D plays a role in normal muscle function, which is essential for an active lifestyle.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCell Division:\u003c\/strong\u003e This vitamin has a role in the process of cell division, supporting overall cellular health.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal teeth.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho May Benefit from Vitamin D3?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany individuals may benefit from vitamin D3 supplementation, particularly those with limited sun exposure, darker skin tones, older adults, or those following a vegan diet (whilst note that this D3 is from lanolin, not suitable for vegans). People living in northern latitudes or during winter months often have lower vitamin D levels. Additionally, those with certain digestive conditions may experience reduced absorption. It is advisable to consult a health care professional to determine if supplementation is right for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Take Pure Encapsulations Vitamin D3\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a dietary supplement, take one capsule daily with a meal to enhance absorption, as vitamin D is fat-soluble. Each capsule provides 5,000 IU (125 mcg) of vitamin D3. Store in a cool, dry place.
