T. J. Clark Liquid Vitamin D:
Cholecalciferol is the most widely known of the
vitamin D series and is a fat soluble vitamin that is stored to some degree in
the body. Many people know that sunlight is a source of vitamin D, but this is
true only in the fact that ultraviolet light from the sun acts as a catalyst on
a vitamin D precursor in the skin. Vitamin D formed in this manner is termed
"natural vitamin D" or vitamin D3. Vitamin D precursors obtained from milk and
other products as well as sunlight-produced vitamin D must be metabolized in the
liver to form the active coenzyme.
The primary functions of vitamin D are
stimulation of calcium and magnesium absorption, two minerals that are essential
for strong bones. Sources of vitamin D include fish liver oil, butter, and
milk.
