Importance of Vitamin D
Vitamin D is vital to support a growing child's development. Aiding calcium absorption, vitamin D helps support healthy bones and teeth, contributes to a healthy immune system and supports normal muscle function.
Who needs it
The UK Department of Health highlights all children under 5 years old as an 'at risk' group for vitamin D deficiency and recommend that they should be given a daily supplement throughout the year.
What is the source of D3 in your Vitamin D Oral Sprays?
The vitamin D3 contained in the majority of our vitamin D sprays is sourced from Lanolin, which is the wool from a sheep. While the D3 in our D1000 Vegan Vitamin D Oral Spray is sourced from algae and is vegan approved by the Vegetarian Society.
What dosage of vitamin D should I take?
We recommend a dosage level based on body weight and advise supplementation of 1000IU of vitamin D per 25kg of body weight. This usually equates to one spray of D3000 per day for adults living in the UK. For children our D400 Infant and D400 Junior products provide ideal daily dosage levels.
I'm taking multiple sprays, should I spread it throughout the day or take them all at once?
This is down to personal preference, either way provides optimal absorption.
Are there any contraindications with taking the vitamin D sprays?
There are no interactions with taking the single nutrient vitamin D oral sprays with any medication. However, if you are taking anti-coagulants (blood thinners) we do not recommend the D3000+K2, unless on the advice of your doctor. We always recommend speaking to your GP before starting any dietary supplements if you are on any medications or have any medical conditions.
