Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is made by the human body when the skin is exposed to ultraviolet B (UVB) rays from the sun. As little as 10 minutes of sun exposure is thought to produce enough Vitamin D to prevent a deficiency.*
Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium and phosphorous, which ensures sufficient blood levels of these minerals for proper calcification of bones and cartilaginous tissues. Sufficient Vitamin D supports bone strength by increasing bone mineral density, and thereby decreases the risk of bone fractures. Maintaining Vitamin D levels is crucial for preventing deficiency symptoms, which can cause skeletal deformities in children and muscular weakness and weak bones in adults. Vitamin D is sometimes regarded as a hormone for its involvement in regulating certain organ and tissue systems.*
