Is Vitamin D for me?
Vitamin D is essential to the maintenance of good health and is produced in the body using energy from sunlight exposure. As well as helping to maintain normal blood calcium levels, it aids the maintenance of healthy bones and normal muscle function. On top of this it plays a role in the regulation of the immune system. The NHS recommend everyone in the UK to take a vitamin D supplement, especially during the winter months due to the lack of sunlight exposure. Food Based vitamin D provides the bio-active forms D1, D2 and D3 rather than the single storage form found in isolate forms of the vitamin.
What is Food Based?
Your body can’t tell the difference between the food you eat and the vitamin and mineral supplements you take. So why would you take synthetic supplements made from ingredients you wouldn’t tolerate in your food? Synthetic supplements are created in a lab, or extracted from products like petroleum. Food Based supplements on the other hand provide vitamins and minerals the way nature intended; as food.

Vitamin D is essential to the maintenance of healthy bones and teeth.
Vitamin D is not just one vitamin and actually refers to a group of fat-soluble vitamins, which play a vital role in increasing the body’s ability to absorb other essential minerals such as calcium and magnesium through the gut. Almost every cell in the human body has a vitamin D receptor and needs vitamin D to function correctly.
The most important vitamin for humans in the vitamin D group is Vitamin D3, or cholecalciferol. Our body is able to produce this vitamin itself through a photochemical reaction when our skin is exposed to sunlight. Without sunlight the reaction cannot occur and our vitamin D3 levels are at risk of becoming depleted. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to a weakened immune system, poor musculoskeletal and bone health, fatigue, tiredness and a host of other issues.
Food based supplements are the natural medium between isolated vitamins found in synthetic supplements and the complex, full-matrix vitamins locked up in the nutrients in food. We provide the missing Link between the food you eat and the nutrients you need.
