Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin. The Vitamin D products from OrthoVitaal contain the most active form of vitamin D, namely Vitamin D3. To produce vitamin D in the skin yourself, you need sunlight. Vitamin D supplementation is recommended by the Health Council for young children, the elderly, people with a darker skin tone, and pregnant women.

Vitamin D has many scientifically proven functions in the human body. For instance, vitamin D has been shown to support our immune system and is important for normal muscle function. It also plays a role in bone formation and the cell division process. In growing children, vitamin D ensures that calcium and phosphorus from food are deposited in the bones and teeth. Furthermore, vitamin D helps reduce the risk of falls, related to postural instability and muscle weakness. Falls are a risk factor for fractures in men and women from the age of 60.
