Product Description:
Fat-Soluble Vitamin D3 is a fat-soluble vitamin that regulates calcium homeostasis and is vital for bone health. The two most prominent forms of vitamin D are ergocalciferol (vitamin D2) and cholecalciferol (vitamin D3). Vitamin D3 can be destroyed by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light and by peroxidation in the presence of rancidifying polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Like vitamins A and E, unless vitamin D3 is stabilized, it is destroyed by oxidation, which is increased by heat, moisture and trace minerals.
