Properties of components
– Vitamin D.: contributes to the absorption of calcium and phosphorus and to the maintenance of bones and teeth.
Vitamin D is fundamental, and indispensable for proper and adequate mineralization of bones, so much so that a lack of vitamin D during growth can lead to rickets, while a deficiency in adulthood can cause osteomalacia, a pathology that involves excessive fragility of the bones, and which exposes them to perennial risk of fractures. Vitamin D facilitates the absorption of calcium in the intestine, and this serves to counteract the possible onset of osteoporosis, or the appearance of less severe, but still unwelcome pains in the bones or muscles. It goes without saying that a vitamin D supplement, to be the best possible vitamin D supplement, should provide 2000 IU (International Units) per daily dose. Very often vitamin D is defined as the vitamin of the Sun, but in this regard a necessary clarification must be made: exposure to the Sun serves to produce vitamin D, but in an inactive form, and the same thing also applies to vitamin D introduced with food sources, then in a second moment it will be our liver, and our kidneys to convert this inactive form into active form. The key thing is that there is availability of inactive form of vitamin D to be converted, so as to avoid a deficiency of this precious nutrient. The use of a vitamin D supplement is strongly recommended especially for older people, as the risk of bone demineralization can increase with age.
