Each Eviol Vitamin D3 soft capsule contains 2200 IU of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), the
most bioavailable and active form of vitamin D.
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin:
Necessary for healthy bones and teeth,
promotes the absorption of calcium and phosphorus from the intestine and their deposition in the bones (mineralization), contributes to the proper functioning of the immune and nervous system system, helps prevent various chronic and autoimmune diseases, is particularly important during infancy and childhood, as well contributes to proper and healthy skeletal development.
The main forms of vitamin D are D2 (ergocalciferol) and D3
(cholecalciferol), contained in a few foods only (fatty fish, milk, eggs, liver, etc.).
Its lack is particularly dangerous, as it can lead to
rickets in children, osteopenia and tetany. Susceptible groups are children, infants and adults who do not are exposed to solar radiation, vegetarians, pregnant women, breastfeeding women and those with malabsorption syndrome, e.g. celiac disease, Crohn's disease, cystic fibrosis, short bowel syndrome etc.
Also, the lack of D3 can reduce its absorption
calcium and phosphorus in the intestine.
