Elexir PharmaD3 Vitamin Vegan 4000IE 100 pcs

Elexir Vegan D3 Vitamin is a dietary supplement packed with 4000 IU (100 µg) of D3 vitamin per capsule. D3 vitamin is naturally produced in the skin when exposed to sunlight, and since the sun doesn’t shine high enough in the Nordics for most of the year, it’s recommended to get your D vitamin through supplements.

D3 vitamin is especially important for vegans, as a vegan diet has very few natural sources of D vitamin. The capsule is made from cellulose, a plant-based material derived from the cell walls of plants.

D vitamin is in short supply in the Nordics

D vitamin is formed in the skin when exposed to sunlight. This vitamin is a fat-soluble nutrient that gets absorbed through the skin and transported to the liver and kidneys for conversion into its active form, vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). D vitamin plays several crucial roles in the body, including the metabolism of phosphate and calcium, regulating the calcium balance in bones and teeth, and maintaining the function of the nervous and immune systems, among others.

Low levels are common

During the summer months, sunlight on the skin is the primary source of vitamin D, but from late autumn to spring, you can’t really count on any significant synthesis of vitamin D in the body, as UV-B rays are filtered out in the atmosphere when the sun is low. Many people in the Nordics risk having insufficient levels of vitamin D for large parts of the year.

Sunscreen protects – but also blocks D vitamin synthesis

Using sunscreen is essential for protecting the skin from the harmful effects of sun rays. However, it also blocks the process where sunlight synthesizes and creates our natural stores of D vitamin.
