Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that the body produces when skin is exposed to sunlight. It is also obtained from certain foods and supplements and can be stored in the body. During autumn and winter, reduced sunlight can limit skin production, particularly in northern Europe.
Vitamin D contributes to:
Vitamin D also has a role in the process of cell division.
Each softgel provides 75 µg (3000 IU) of vitamin D3.
As we do not have enough sunlight during autumn, winter and part spring seasons in the northern hemisphere/ north of equator, that is entire Europe. Our body can make Vitamin D only through sunlight. Vitamin D is essential nutrient required for maintaining healthy bodily functions, such as your bone health, neuro-brain-functioning, metabolism, all your muscle and cell health. Vitamin D helps absorb many other nutrients too, like calcium and other vitamins and minerals. Its an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and neuroprotective properties support immune health. You can get your Vitamin D only through the sunlight, also present in very few natural foods, such as fatty fish such as mackerel, sardines, grass-fed meat, salmon, concentrated butter, fortified milk, fortified cereals, new research shows certain types of millets have vitamin D, great news indeed. Vitamin D will not store in the body for a long time, it can store only for up to 24 hours, that is why it is very important to get enough sunlight, when it is not possible, we will have to take Vitamin D3 supplement for cellular health, brain and other bodily functions, help absorb other nutrients.
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in the health of older adults, aging elderly people. Vitamin D promotes strong bones, helps flexible muscles movements. Plays an important role in immune system, plays a role in healthy metabolism, cognitive-brain health. Approved by the FDA, most medically researched topic by scientific community in the world.
The Health Council reports: “Women over fifty and men over seventy are best advised to take vitamin D because it is plausible that vitamin D improves bone density and because it has been convincingly proven that vitamin D protects against bone fractures, making it plausible that this reduces the risk of falls in this group.”
There are certain groups of people for whom the Health Council recommends 10 mcg of vitamin D supplementation per day:

Suitable for adults.
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is converted in the liver into 25-hydroxyvitamin D, the main circulating form measured to assess vitamin D status. It is then converted primarily in the kidneys into calcitriol, its active hormonal form.
Calcitriol binds to vitamin D receptors and helps regulate calcium and phosphorus balance, supporting normal bones, teeth and muscle function
A simple softgel format designed to fit into your routine. Take with a meal containing some fat to support vitamin D absorption, following the recommended directions on the product label.
Each softgel provides 75 µg (3000 IU) of vitamin D3. Consider your total vitamin D intake from other supplements and seek professional advice to determine whether this strength suits your needs.
Vitamin D helps the body absorb and utilise calcium and phosphorus, contributing to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth. It also supports normal muscle function and immune function and has a role in cell division.
The skin produces vitamin D following sunlight exposure. During autumn and winter, reduced UVB availability can limit this production, particularly in northern Europe—making adequate intake especially relevant.
A focused formulation built around vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), providing 75 µg (3000 IU) per softgel.
Food sources of vitamin D3 include oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, sardines and herring, alongside smaller amounts in egg yolks. Fortified foods can also contribute vitamin D—check the label for the form and amount added.
Combine these foods with a varied, balanced diet. When supplementation is appropriate, choose a strength suited to your individual needs.

What does 3000 IU mean?
3000 IU equals 75 µg of vitamin D3 per softgel.
How does vitamin D3 work in the body?
The liver and kidneys convert vitamin D3 into forms the body uses to regulate calcium and phosphorus balance.
Does the body store vitamin D?
Yes. Vitamin D is fat-soluble and can be stored in body tissues.
Can food provide vitamin D?
Yes. Sources include oily fish, egg yolks and foods fortified with vitamin D.
Is this strength suitable for everyone?
Individual needs vary. This strength exceeds standard Dutch supplementation recommendations. Ask a healthcare professional whether it is appropriate for you.
Is this product vegan?
The current mockup specifies lanolin-derived D3, which is not vegan. Final ingredients and suitability will be confirmed before launch.
Close the cap tightly after use, store it in cool-dry place away from sunlight and keep out of children’s reach.
What is the difference between vitamin D2 and D3?
Vitamin D2 is called ergocalciferol; vitamin D3 is called cholecalciferol. Both contribute to vitamin D intake. D3 is also the form the skin produces following exposure to UVB sunlight.
How does the body activate vitamin D3?
The liver converts vitamin D3 into 25-hydroxyvitamin D, the main circulating form. It is then converted primarily in the kidneys into calcitriol, its active hormonal form.
Why does vitamin D matter for calcium balance?
Vitamin D contributes to normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus and helps maintain normal blood calcium levels. These minerals are important components of bones and teeth.
Does vitamin D support muscles as well as bones?
Yes. Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function as well as normal bones.
What is its role in immune function?
Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system. Supplementation does not guarantee protection against infections.
Can I produce vitamin D through a window?
Ordinary window glass blocks most UVB radiation needed for vitamin D production. Sitting beside a sunny window is therefore not a reliable source.
What affects vitamin D production from sunlight?
Season, latitude, time of day, age, skin pigmentation, clothing and the amount of skin exposed can all affect production. Avoid sunburn; prolonged unprotected exposure is not recommended.
Does everyone need the same amount of supplemental vitamin D?
No. Requirements depend on age, sunlight exposure, diet, medical conditions and existing supplementation. A higher strength is not automatically more appropriate.
How does this strength compare with Dutch supplementation advice?
Each softgel contains 75 µg (3000 IU). Standard Dutch advice recommends 10 µg daily for women aged 50–69 and 20 µg daily for everyone aged 70 and over. This product should not be presented as equivalent to those standard doses.
Can a blood test help assess vitamin D status?
A blood test measuring 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] can assess vitamin D status. A healthcare professional can determine whether testing is appropriate and interpret the result.
Can taking too much vitamin D be harmful?
Yes. Excessive intake can cause elevated blood calcium and damage the kidneys and other tissues. EFSA’s adult upper intake level is 100 µg (4000 IU) daily from all dietary sources, including food and supplements. This is a safety limit, not a recommended target.
Can I take vitamin D3 with a multivitamin or calcium supplement?
Check the combined vitamin D and calcium amounts. Consult a healthcare professional before combining these products, particularly when using a 75 µg vitamin D softgel.
Do I need to take vitamin K2 alongside vitamin D3?
Vitamin K2 is not automatically required with every vitamin D supplement. Whether a combined product is appropriate depends on individual needs. People taking vitamin K antagonist anticoagulants should seek medical advice before using vitamin K supplements.
Can vitamin D3 interact with medicines?
Yes. Certain medicines, including some diuretics, heart medicines, corticosteroids and anticonvulsants, can interact with vitamin D or affect its metabolism. Ask a doctor or pharmacist to review your medication.
Who should seek medical advice before using this strength?
People with kidney disease, a history of kidney stones, elevated blood calcium, sarcoidosis or other conditions affecting vitamin D metabolism should seek advice first. This also applies during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Is this product suitable for children?
This 75 µg strength should not be used for children without medical advice. Follow the age restrictions on the final product label.
Should vitamin D3 be taken with food?
Vitamin D is fat-soluble and is generally taken with a meal containing some fat. Follow the final product directions for the recommended amount and frequency.
Can I use this product to treat a diagnosed deficiency?
Treatment of a diagnosed deficiency should follow a healthcare professional’s advice. The dose and duration may differ from routine supplementation.
