Vitamin D3 2000 IU is a natural form of vitamin D, also called the "sunshine vitamin" , which is produced in the skin by exposure to sunlight. It is among the 24 essential nutrients necessary for life. The only natural source of D3 is sunlight . However, this source is insufficient for the majority of the population, since metabolism can only take place during the summer months and at certain time intervals, and people spend a minimum of time in sunlight. In addition to the fact that its production decreases with the lack of sunlight and during the winter months, the body's ability to produce D3 also decreases with age.

The most important and key role of vitamin D is to maintain the correct level of calcium and phosphorus in the blood, which is essential for the proper development, growth and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth. Vitamin D3 is essential for natural development and contributes to the normal level of calcium in the blood , thus supporting the correct development of the child. It also participates in some immune processes, blood pressure regulation, and the growth of blood, muscle, and skin cells. Vitamin D affects more than 200 processes in our body, and its importance is confirmed by many studies.

What are the sources of vitamin D? The main source of vitamin D is sunlight (up to 90%) . In a day spent in the sun, up to 1,200 micrograms of vitamin D (1μg = 40 IU) can be produced. The daily dose of vitamin D for an adult should range from 100 to 2,000 IU, depending on several factors. Its minimal amount can also be found in some foods. According to the latest information and research, we can only get 10% of our vitamin D through our diet . It is contained in the meat of fatty fish such as salmon, tuna, sardines, mackerel and in their liver oil. For an optimal amount, you should eat about 4 kg of fish per day. It is also found in smaller amounts in beef liver, egg yolk, milk, dairy products, yeast, sun-dried mushrooms, cocoa and coconut.
