Vitamin D3 (Vegan) liquid -
*Lichen-derived vegan vitamin D3 to support for bone, breast, prostate, cardiovascular, colon and immune health in a convenient liquid delivery form
What Is It?
Vitamin D
3
(Vegan) liquid provides lichen-derived, vegan vitamin D
3
to support bone, breast, prostate, cardiovascular, colon and immune
health. Vitamin D levels have been shown to decline with age, due
primarily to a reduction in either absorption or metabolism by the
liver. Decreased exposure to sunlight, a vegetarian diet, or a low
intake of vitamin D fortified foods also play a role in inadequate
vitamin D levels.*
Uses For Vitamin D
3
Promotes Bone Health:
Vitamin D promotes intestinal calcium and
phosphorous absorption and reduces urinary calcium loss, essential
mechanisms for maintaining proper calcium levels in the body and
for healthy bone composition. Clinical studies involving vitamin D
supplementation suggest the importance of vitamin D in addition to
calcium for bone health.*
Cardiovascular Support:
Vitamin D supports cardiovascular health
for some individuals, which may be attributed to its effect on calcium
metabolism or possibly by helping to maintain healthy plasma renin
function.*
Promotes Cellular Health:
A role for vitamin D in supporting colon
health by promoting healthy cellular function has also been
suggested. Vitamin D is also believed to provide general cellular
support potential, including for the breast and prostate, in part
by helping to maintain healthy angiogenesis balance, supporting
immune cell activity and maintaining healthy cell metabolism.
Preliminary evidence suggests that vitamin D may also play a role in
maintaining healthy glucose metabolism, since vitamin D receptors
are present on the islet cells of the pancreas.*
What Is The Source?
Vitamin D
3
(Vegan) liquid is derived from naturally occurring,
sustainably harvested lichen. It is produced through a multistep
process involving extraction, purification and concentration resulting
in a vitamin D
3
cholecalciferol with the same molecular structure and
conformation as vitamin D
3
derived from lanolin and fish oil. It is the
only plant-derived source of vitamin D
3
that has been accepted by
the UK Vegan Society. Medium chain triglycerides are derived from
coconut and palm oil. Natural tocopherols are derived from purified
soybean oil.
