Description
Studies suggest that cholecalciferol (D3) is the most bioavailable form of vitamin D, which has recently been the subject of renewed interest amongst nutritional scientists. A raft of new studies highlight the importance of vitamin D, not only in its traditional role in bone support, but also in areas including immune and mental health.
Vitamin D is unique among essential nutrients, in that it transforms into a hormone in its active form. Like other hormones, it is responsible for regulating certain bodily functions.
Once it is produced in the kidney, the active form of vitamin D triggers several essential processes including: mobilisation of calcium and phosphorus from bone tissue, absorption of calcium and phosphorus from food, thyroid and parathyroid function, nerve function and immune function.
