🦴 Vitamin D Supplement – Supports bone health, calcium absorption, and overall well-being.
Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) is naturally produced in the skin when exposed to sunlight. It undergoes two transformation steps—first in the liver, then in the kidneys—to become its active form. This active form helps regulate calcium and phosphate levels in the body, essential for healthy bones, teeth, and muscles.
