Vitakruid Vitamin D3 drops 5 mcg / 200 IU per dropVitamin D3 drops for ultimate dosing convenience
The Vitamin D3 drops are offered in liquid form. With supplements in drop form, you have control over the dosage, while with a capsule or tablet, you are always tied to a certain dosage. Additionally, this product comes with a pipette, allowing you to dose the drops optimally without the risk of waste.
Suitable for the whole family
Due to the ease of dosing, this vitamin D3 product is suitable for the whole family. It is easy to determine the recommended dosage of 2 drops for your children with the pipette and administer it with a spoon. As adults, you can maintain a dosage of 5 drops, provided your vitamin D3 levels are sufficient. Insufficient vitamin D3 levels occur in the elderly, people who spend little time outdoors, or people with darker skin. This group benefits from a vitamin D3 intake of 10 drops or even more.
For the whole year
In fact, vitamin D is not a vitamin but a hormone that our body can produce itself. Our skin captures the sun's rays and then produces vitamin D, hence the fitting nickname; the sunshine vitamin. However, the sun only shines brightly enough during the warm spring and summer months to enable our body to produce enough vitamin D. Due to the climate in the Benelux, we are therefore susceptible to insufficient levels.
A balanced and vitamin D-rich diet could provide a solution. However, the levels of the hormone from food are insufficient. Vitamin D supplementation throughout the year seems to be more the rule than the exception for the average Dutch person.
The best form of vitamin D is D3
The form cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) is found in animal-derived foods. Animals produce vitamin D in the same way as humans, under the influence of UV radiation (sunlight). The form you consume from animal products is even the exact same vitamin D that our skin produces. Therefore, vitamin D3, compared to the commonly used D2 variant, is the most absorbable form for our body.
