What is Vitamin D?

According to NHS Choices Vitamin D helps to regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in the body. These nutrients are needed to keep bones, teeth and muscles healthy. A lack of vitamin D can lead to bone deformities such as rickets in children, and bone pain caused by a condition called osteomalacia in adults. Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin found in foods such as oily fish, butter and egg yolk. It is formed through the action of UV sunlight on the skin. Vitamin D has functions and benefits that are probably more wide ranging than any other vitamin. There has been huge renewed interest in vitamin D recently, with new global research showing that the health benefits of this nutrient stretch beyond bone health.

Vitamin D deficiency affects at least half the population. Those most at risk include: over 65s, pregnant and breast-feeding women, people with low exposure to the sun and people who have darker skin.

People at risk of vitamin D deficiency

The UK’s Department of Health recommends that: Some people won’t get enough vitamin D from sunlight because they have very little or no sunshine exposure. The Department of Health recommends that you take a daily supplement containing 10mcg of vitamin D throughout the year if you:

• aren’t often outdoors – for example, if you’re frail or housebound
• are in an institution like a care home
• usually wear clothes that cover up most of your skin when outdoors

People with dark skin from African, African-Caribbean and south Asian backgrounds may also not get enough vitamin D from sunlight. They should consider taking a daily supplement containing vitamin D throughout the year.Our formulation enables you to receive the goodness of Vitamin D3 throughout the whole year, come rain or shine.

There are a number of reasons why Vitamin D supplementation is now advocated including:

• Government health advice to reduce sun exposure which can mean less Vitamin D is produced naturally by the body.
• Reduced sun exposure in certain groups of the population e.g. older people, for religious reasons/clothing, certain occupations, medical reasons, those with dark skin (as greater skin melanin content can reduce the skin’s ability to produce Vitamin D).
• Increased requirement at certain life stages e.g. the elderly population – whose skin may not be able to synthesize Vitamin D effectively.
• Those with increased dietary intolerances (e.g. lactose and dairy), allergens.
• People who are on a diet.

Approved health claims from European Food Safety Authority (EFSA):

• Vitamin D contributes to normal absorption/ utilisation of calcium and phosphorus.
• Vitamin D contributes to normal blood calcium levels.
• Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.
• Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function.
• Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal teeth.
• Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
• Vitamin D has a role in the process of cell division.
