What Are the Benefits of Vitamin D?
Vitamin D is also known as the sunshine vitamin, or the sun vitamin. This is because the body produces the vitamin D it needs when our skin is directly exposed to sunlight. When ultraviolet B (UVB) rays hit receptor cells in the skin, they trigger a chemical reaction which produces vitamin D3.
This means that it can be difficult to get the vitamin D we need, especially during the winter months or if you do not get to spend much time outside. Since it can therefore be a challenge to get enough vitamin D via sunlight alone, the NHS recommends that everyone in the UK should take a vitamin D supplement during the winter months, from October to March, in order to keep their levels topped up.
Vitamin D helps to support calcium and phosphate levels in the body. Vitamin D supports the maintenance of normal bones and muscle function as well as the normal function of the immune system.

Personally I believe this is a faulty product with a possible manufacturing error. I am quite sensitive to vit D3 and take a necessary high dose. After a week of taking this product I was heading downhill, serious.

On giving the O.K. by my Rheumatologist, I decided to buy the vitamin D tablets. Have been taking them each day. Personally, have not noticed a great benefit or change, but it keeps bones healthy and gives you the benefits from the sunshine [which I cannot sit in too long, because of my medication] so my body must be getting some benefit.

On doctors orders I have started taking vitamin D to help with S.A.D. His words - Every one over the age of 55 should take vitamin D as you cannot get enough naturally . They are easy to take and though it does not say on label vitamin D needs to be taken WITH FOOD to enable body to absorb it.
