Our bodies obtain vitamin D (which, strictly speaking is a steroid hormone) from two sources, our diet and from the action of sunlight on our skin which drives the natural production within the body. If we all had plenty of sun then we would have plenty of vitamin D, but in reality, we do need to obtain some from our diet, particularly during the winter months and particularly in the elderly as the body's ability to manufacture vitamin D declines with age. Indeed, as many as 60 percent of the UK population is vitamin D deficient and low levels have been linked to serious health problems in later life. As a result, it is recommended by the Department of Health that adults should take a Vitamin D supplement in the winter months, and certain groups should consider year-round supplementation, including those over-65, pregnant & breastfeeding women, and those not exposed to much sunlight.

This is not surprising when one considers the fact that it is involved in the expression of more than 1000 genes. So, whilst it is renowned for its vital role in the maintenance of normal bone health, it actually acts on cells in every organ of the body and has extremely far-reaching effects on human health, including immunity.

Each capsule of Lamberts® Vitamin D provides 1000iu (in the vitamin D3 form).
