Vitamin D3 (calciferol) is a fat-soluble vitamin so critical to human health that our skin manufactures it in response to sun exposure. Its role in bone health is well-documented, but vitamin D3 receptors are also present and active in a variety of tissues outside of bones, such as in heart muscle cells and arterial muscle cells. This would suggest that vitamin D3 plays a significant role in proper cardiovascular function and regulation. In addition, it appears that vitamin D3 improves immune function by increasing the production of anti-microbial proteins that provide a natural defence against disease-causing bacteria and viruses. Vitamin D3 deficiency is more common than one would think. Food sources like liver, fatty fish and fortified liquid milk products, are no longer consumed in the quantities they once were. Also, our ability to synthesize vitamin D3 in our skin from UVB rays is reduced by sunscreen products, air pollution, medications, darker skin pigmentation, older age and a poor state of health. In addition, vitamin D3 deficiency leads to softening of the bones in children and osteomalacia in adults. PLV Vitamin D3 provides 1,000 i.u. dry-form vitamin D-3, packed in easy-to-swallow mini-caps.
