Vitamin D3 production in the human body is a photochemical process that occurs when the skin is exposed to UVB ultraviolet radiation. However, the effectiveness of sunlight varies. Modern lifestyle habits, prolonged use of sunscreen products, and environmental factors contribute to the widespread occurrence of vitamin D3 deficiency, affecting approximately 50% of the global population across all ethnicities and age groups.
Vitamin D3 plays a key role in the development and maintenance of bones and bone density. It promotes adequate calcium absorption, contributing to the health of bones and teeth. Additionally, it supports healthy cell growth and helps maintain a normal nervous and immune system.
Vitamin D3 is found in limited foods, mainly of animal origin, such as salmon, tuna, sardines, mushrooms, egg yolk, and fortified milk. For those who find it difficult to reach the recommended levels, vitamin D3 supplementation (upon medical advice) may help support adequate levels in the body.
