Patient One Vitamin D3 supplies cholecalciferol, a highly absorbable and bioavailable form of vitamin D (from lanolin), for optimal nutritional benefits for the skeletal, cardiovascular and immune systems.
Patient One Vitamin D3 is the naturally occurring form of vitamin D synthesized in humans. Vitamin D3 is most noted for optimizing calcium bioavailability, thereby promoting peak bone mass and bone strength. D3’s ability to promote normal cell growth and metabolism provides additional benefits for cardiovascular, breast, colon, prostate and immune health.
Patient One Vitamin D3 is a professional-strength formula that promotes compliance through once-a-day, or twice weekly, high potency administration. Patient One supplies high level servings (5000 IU and 10,000 IU) of cholecalciferol D3 to compensate for nutritional challenges related to deficiency, lack of sun exposure, and poor absorbability. Vitamin D production is reduced by anything that decreases the intensity of the sun’s rays, such as cloud cover, seasons, time of day, smog, use of sunblock, and skin melanin content. There are very few dietary sources of Vitamin D. In addition, Vitamin D levels decline with age.
75% of Americans fail to reach recommended daily vitamin D intake, which doubles between ages 51 and 70, and triples over age 71 – making vitamin D supplementation increasingly important as we age.
