Buy regiovit Vitamin D3 1000 IU (9 g)

Vitamin D3 1000 IU contributes to the following normal bodily functions:

Vitamin D3 supports

• the immune system
• the maintenance of bones and teeth
• the maintenance of muscle function
• the normal absorption and utilization of calcium
• cell division
• in cases where normal vitamin D production is reduced
• people who spend little time outdoors

Important to know:

Vitamin D3 is naturally produced in the skin under the influence of UV rays. In our latitudes, sunlight during the winter months is not intense enough to ensure sufficient vitamin D production.

We need sunlight so that our bodies can produce the vital vitamin D themselves. In Switzerland, both the intensity of sunlight and the duration of sunshine are reduced. The risk of vitamin D deficiency is particularly high in winter, when clothing also covers the skin. However, a similar problem also exists in summer, as sunscreen is used more frequently. As a result, hardly any vitamin D can be produced. We therefore recommend that all affected individuals supplement with vitamin D3 throughout the year.

How is vitamin D produced?

Lanolin, or wool wax

Wool wax is produced in the sebaceous glands of sheep. It protects sheep from adverse weather conditions and enhances the warming effect of the wool.

After shearing and before further processing, the wool must be washed, during which raw wool wax is obtained. It is purified through repeated washing and remelting. This is a recycling process, because if the wool wax were not recovered from the wash water, the water would have to undergo extensive purification.

This method of obtaining lanolin has existed for a very long time; it was first described by the Greek physician Dioscorides in the 1st century AD. Even then, lanolin was used for creams and lotions because of its special properties.

The basic principle of extraction remains unchanged to this day and has been used for several hundred years.

Lanolin, or wool wax, is structurally very similar to body tissue and also contains a great deal of cholesterol.

Just as cholecalciferol is produced from cholesterol in human skin when exposed to UV-B radiation, cholecalciferol is also formed in wool wax when exposed to UV-B-containing light—the process is identical and 100% natural.
