Vitamin D Tablets & Supplements

Supporting your health with vitamin D supplements

While vitamin D is referred to as a vitamin, it is actually a steroid hormone obtained from sun exposure and food sources. However, research shows the amount of this vitamin in foods can vary greatly and getting it from the sun requires exposure for two hours twice a week, which can adversely affect skin health. Therefore, to maintain normal vitamin D levels, dietary supplementation may be essential. 

Mr Vitamins offers a wide range of vitamin D tablets of the best quality at competitive prices. Check our range online and enjoy fast shipping across the country.

Known health benefits of vitamin D tablets

Vitamin D (cholecalciferol) is a hormone that controls calcium levels in the blood. It is important for strong bones, muscles and overall health. Research shows that this vitamin can help to prevent some common diseases and keep the body healthy. 

Supplementation with vitamin D products may be crucial during pregnancy and lactation and through growth spurts in infants and children. It is also recommended for the elderly, people that spend a lot of time indoors or apply sunscreen and cover-ups, people with darker skin and those with intestinal absorption issues, as well as for all people during winter.

Vitamin D contributes to: 

  • Maintaining healthy immune function. It can positively affect both innate and adaptive immunity. Vitamin D tablets may help reduce the risk of common flu viruses and colds. 
  • Strengthening the musculoskeletal system. Vitamin D is vital for calcium absorption, which helps to ensure the strength of bones and teeth and reduces the risk of rickets and osteomalacia. Vitamin supplements can support muscle strength and neuromuscular conductivity, thereby preventing injuries and fractures. 
  • Increasing the energy potential of the body. Vitamin D helps relieve fatigue and increase the tone of the body, regulating cellular energy potential.
  • Supporting the nervous system's normal functioning. Vitamin D tablets show a positive effect on the psycho-emotional sphere and cognitive functions, including mood, memory, attention, performance and general well-being.
  • Maintaining normal reproductive function. Vitamin D plays an important role in the production of female and male sex hormones: estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.

Vitamin D tablets can also potentially help to reduce the risk of certain health conditions including type 2 diabetes, chronic inflammation, age-related macular degeneration and Alzheimer’s disease. According to one large-scale study, optimal cholecalciferol levels can decrease your risk of cancer by as much as 60%, including pancreatic, lung, ovarian, prostate, and skin cancers.

How to take vitamin D supplements

Vitamin D is available as vitamin D2 and as vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 supplements are 87% more effective and are the preferred way to treat cholecalciferol deficiency. This condition is more common than once thought and is becoming a more frequent concern. The vitamin D intake of most Australians is estimated to be well below the adequate level recommended. 

The combination of low dietary intake and inadequate sun exposure are major factors contributing to low levels of vitamin D. Blood testing can accurately detect any vitamin deficiency in children and adults.

The Vitamin D dosage for an adult depends on the level of deficiency and can range between 1000 IU to 5000 IU per day. The best supplement would be a naturally derived D3 1000 IU. At Mr Vitamins, vitamin D is available in the form of tablets, capsules and drops.

Please talk to one of the Mr Vitamins naturopaths about options available if you require a Vitamin D 5000 IU supplement. You can also find more nutritional information and health advice on our blog.
