Vitamin D3 has long been recognised for its many benefits, most notably its contribution to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth where it plays a key role in ensuring a sufficient level of calcium is present in bones. Other benefits of vitamin D3 include boosting the activity of immune cells and a further contribution to both heart and brain health. Sunshine Vitamin Vitamin D is a fat soluble nutrient and is found in Cod liver oil, vitamin D-fortified foods, egg yolks and butter. However, the majority of vitamin D in the body is created during a chemical reaction that starts with sunlight exposure to the skin. This is why vitamin D is often referred to as the sunshine vitamin. Unfortunately due to concerns about skin cancer many of us don’t get the safe sun exposure we need to generate sufficient vitamin D. For ageing bones and joints As the skin ages, it becomes less efficient at converting rays from the sun into vitamin D and a gradual loss of bone density can occur leaving bones vulnerable to breaks or fractures. Mature women in particular are at increased risk of bone loss due to dropping oestrogen levels after menopause.
