Henry Blooms Vitamin D3 promotes Calcium absorption which is essential for bone health. Vitamin D deficiency is common in Australia particularly in the age group where osteoporosis is a risk. Vitamin D assists with the absorption of Calcium. Stronger muscles and bones can help reduce the risk of falls in the elderly and reduce fractures. Vitamin D3 is the most absorbable form of Vitamin D. Vitamin D is required for the regulation of the minerals Calcium and Phosphorus found in the body. This regulation plays an important role in maintaining the proper bone structure and healthy teeth. Vitamin D helps with Calcium absorption; a diet deficient in Calcium can lead to osteoporosis in later life. Supplementation of Vitamin D also support muscle strength thus helping to reduce falls in older people. Recent research has found that Australians have low blood levels of Vitamin D. It is also reported that, the average estimated dietary intake of Vitamin D is ten times lower than recommended levels. A limit to exposure in sunlight has been thought to account for the reduction of Vitamin D. Supplementation provides the required amount which is unattainable from diet alone and without the dangers of exposure to sunlight.
