Lamberts Vitamin D3 2000iu 120Caps

Lamberts Vitamin D3 2000iu dietary supplement with vitamin D 2000iu provides 50mg of the important micronutrient in the preferred and natural form of D3 (cholecalciferol), which is the most easily absorbable form.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that can be obtained through the diet or synthesized by the body following exposure of the skin to sunlight (UVB).

Recommended for:
the elderly, especially for those with reduced nutrient intake
anyone who has little or no sun exposure.

Most of the vitamin D is produced after exposure of the skin to sunlight. However, many people do not produce the necessary amounts of vitamin D because the sun's ability to contribute to the synthesis of vitamin D in the skin is affected by:
- the season (the largest amounts of vitamin D are produced during the summer)
- the latitude
- the time of day when the skin is exposed to the sun, cloudiness (full cloudy skies cause a 50% reduction in vitamin D production by the skin)
- smog/environmental pollution (most residents live in big cities)
- the melanin content of the skin (people with a dark skin phototype synthesize smaller amounts of vitamin D after exposure to solar radiation) and
- the use of sunscreens (SPF8 and above).
