Vitamin D3 is the biologically active form of vitamin D. When combined with sufficient calcium, a healthy diet, and an active lifestyle, it can help reduce the incidence of osteoporosis.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes vitamin D3 deficiency as a factor for many global health concerns. Statistics Canada reports that 40% of Canadians are vitamin D3 deficient in winter, and 25% during the summer months. New Roots Herbal’s Vitamin D3 Extra Strength delivers a proactive dosage of 2,500 IU per capsule to help prevent vitamin D3 deficiency year-round.
