Your source of sunshine in a bottle
Many people struggle to get adequate vitamin D, particularly during the winter months when sunshine (the main source of vitamin D for most people) is in scarce supply. Our vitamin D complex offers 500IU of Food Based® vitamin D2 and 500IU of vitamin D3 from lichen. We've also added vitamin K1 which helps to maintain a healthy immune system and support bone structure and integrity and vitamin D-rich shiitake mushroom extract. The Department of Health recommends that everyone in the UK over the age of five, should consider taking a daily vitamin D supplement, particularly between October and March.

Is Vitamin D for me?
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin and is essential for the maintenance of good health. As well as helping to maintain normal blood calcium levels, it aids the maintenance of healthy bones and normal muscle function. In addition to this, vitamin D plays an integral role in regulating the immune system. Vitamin K contributes to the maintenance of bone health as well as supporting healthy blood clotting. Together they work synergistically in regulating calcium metabolism. To this, we've added shiitake mushroom to provide added immune support within the complex.
Why Choose Food Based?
Instead of creating regulated isolated nutrients, we recreate what nature intended; Food Based® nutrients that the body recognises. Our unique fermentation process bio-enhances nutrients, recreating the sophisticated, naturally occurring matrix present in food.

Vitamin D is essential to the maintenance of healthy bones and teeth.
Vitamin D 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, and is integral to bone health and immunity. Almost every cell in the human body has a vitamin D receptor and needs vitamin D to function correctly.
Humans have a combination of vitamins D2 and D3 available to them as part of a typical lifestyle. Sources of D3 include ambient UV exposure and dietary intake of oily fish, eggs or algae. Vitamin D2 can be found in some plant sources, like mushrooms or fortified foods. Adequate levels of vitamin D are not achievable through diet and sunlight alone and deficiency can lead to a weakened immune system, poor musculoskeletal and bone health, fatigue, tiredness and a host of other issues.
