Why do children need vitamin D3?
Vitamin D3 is involved in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, two minerals that slow down the formation of bones and teeth in children. In addition, this nutrient supports the normal functioning of the immune system and muscle health.
Most children get vitamin D from exposure to the sun, but during prolonged indoor exposure, during the fall and winter seasons, or in cloudy climates, this may not be enough. This is when a daily supplement becomes appropriate.
Why D3 and not D2?
Cholecalciferol (D3) is the natural form of vitamin D that the body synthesizes on its own under the influence of ultraviolet light. This form is considered identical to the one produced in the skin, so the manufacturer positions it as a priority for supplements.
How much vitamin D3 should a child take per day?
Manufacturer's recommended dosage: 1 chewable candy once daily for children 3 years and older, or as directed by a physician. One serving = 600 IU of vitamin D3. Consult a pediatrician before starting, especially if your child is already getting vitamin D from other sources.
Convenient format for daily use
The chewable format of gummies makes daily intake easier for children who refuse tablets or capsules. The candy does not need to be washed down with water or divided - just chew during or after a meal.
Storage conditions
Store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children. Do not exceed the recommended dosage without consulting a doctor.
