Cytoplan Vegetarian Vitamin D3 62.5Ug - 60 Tablets

This product is a high potency vitamin D3 supplement suitable for vegetarians.

• A high potency, one-a-day formula, providing the level of vitamin D often recommended by healthcare professionals
• One tablet provides 62.5µg (2,500i.u) of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) at 1250% of the NRV
• Vitamin D3 is more efficacious at raising serum 25(OH)D concentrations and therefore calcitriol than vitamin D2. Vitamin D3 is therefore the preferred choice for supplementation (1)
• With the evidence of widespread deficiency within the UK population, it is essential that the most efficacious source of vitamin D is consumed through supplementation (2,3)
• Those at particular risk of vitamin D deficiency are the elderly (65 years+), those who rarely get outdoors (lack of sunshine) and people with dark skin. (Children under five are also at risk and for this age group we have a liquid vitamin D3 product – Vitamin D3 Drops code 3323)
