About BulkSupplements Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) Powder
Vitamin D3 is an important nutrient and is responsible for regulating calcium levels, thereby maintaining the health of all things calcium related from teeth to bones to cartilage. It is produced naturally in the body and is a comprehensive hormone that deals with all things calcium related. It is able to regulate the way that calcium is absorbed into the body and then how it is incorporated into various areas that need it. Vitamin D3 is sometimes referred to as its scientific name, cholecalciferol. There are two different sources of the hormone which regulates the bodyÆs production and consumption of calcium. This includes vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol). However, the latter is generally thought if as an inferior source and is usually found in oily fish, fortified milk and various other dairy and grains. Not having enough vitamin D3 in your system can lead to a deficiency which has a variety of negative side effects associated with it. Rickets, a disease resulting in deformation of bones and teeth, is quite common in children that have low vitamin D3 levels. Adults with low vitamin D3 can develop a condition called osteomalacia (a disease with similar effects to rickets) or the more common osteoporosis which causes bone weakness as calcium is taken out of the bones steadily and provided to other parts of the body that need it.
