Unlike most commonly available vitamin D3 Supplements, which are derived from the lanolin in sheep’s wool, Viridian Vitamin D3 2000iu Capsules are naturally-derived from lichen (a composite organism that emerges from algae), making them vegan friendly!

 

Details

Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones, teeth, muscle function and immune function. Vitamin D contributes to normal absorption/utilisation of calcium and phosphorus. The classic vitamin D deficiency disease is rickets. Yet as fear of sun-exposure has grown and lifestyles have become more sedentary, exposure to the sun has dropped dramatically and vitamin D deficiency and the incidence of rickets has surged.

The skin cannot create vitamin D if covered in sunscreen or clothing, it is thought that a sun cream with SPF15 will reduce the skins ability to synthesize vitamin D by more than 95%. Many older people and those from the Asian community who tend to wear more modest clothing are amongst the population groups most like to suffer deficiency in vitamin D. Dietary sources include fortified foods, eggs and fatty fish. Most commonly-available Vitamin D3 supplements are derived from the lanolin in sheeps wool. However, Viridian Nutrition vitamin D3 is vegan, derived from lichen.

How to Use

As a food supplement, take one capsule daily with food, or as directed by your healthcare professional.
