SUPPORTS IMMUNE FUNCTION
Vitamin D enhances the pathogen-fighting effects of monocytes and macrophages—white blood cells that are important parts of your immune defence—and decreases inflammation. This vitamin is vital for activating immune system defences and has been shown to reduce the risk of infections and the duration and severity of symptoms when ill.
PROMOTES BONE HEALTH
Vitamin D is essential for calcium absorption in the gut. Without sufficient vitamin D, bones can become thin, brittle, or misshapen. Adequate levels help prevent osteoporosis in adults.
REGULATES MOOD
Vitamin D receptors are found in the brain, and studies suggest that this vitamin can play a role in mood regulation and warding off conditions like depression. By promoting the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter associated with mood elevation, Vitamin D helps maintain mental well-being, particularly during the darker months when sunlight exposure is limited.
Take 1 capsule daily with food. Those who require a higher Vitamin D intake can take 2 capsules daily with food.
Include as part of a healthy, balanced diet.
Vitamin D3 (as cholecalciferol), 62.5 mcg / 2500 IU, *1250% RDI
Yes, Vitamin D is generally safe and important during pregnancy. It helps in the development of the baby's bones, teeth, and immune system. However, it's recommended to consult with a healthcare provider for the appropriate dosage.
The recommended dosage varies based on age, health status, and exposure to sunlight. Generally, adults should aim for 600-800 IU daily, but your doctor might recommend a different dose based on your specific needs.
Yes, it is possible to have too much Vitamin D. If you are already taking KÄLLA HORMONES & ME, you do not need additional Vitamin D. All other KÄLLA products can be safely taken with this supplement.
Vitamin D3 is more effective at raising and maintaining adequate blood levels of Vitamin D then other forms (such as Vitamin D2), which is why we have selected it for our daily supplement. It is derived from lanolin (sheep’s wool), which means it is not a vegan solution.
While sunlight is a natural source of Vitamin D, factors like geographic location, skin colour, age, and sunscreen use can affect how much Vitamin D your body produces. Many people still need dietary sources or supplements to meet their needs. The Swedish Health Agency recommends supplementing with Vitamin D, especially during the winter months.
A blood test measuring 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels is the most accurate way to determine if you’re deficient or insufficient. Insufficiency is typically defined as a value between 35 - 75 nmol/L and deficiency below 35 nmol/L. Common signs of deficiency include fatigue, bone pain, muscle weakness, and mood changes.
It can be challenging to get enough Vitamin D from food alone because few foods naturally contain it. Herring, mackerel and salmon have the highest vitamin D concentrations ranging from 7 - 14 mg/serving. Fortified foods and supplements are often necessary to meet daily requirements.
