About Vitamin D

  • Vitamin D is a fat-soluble compound essential for maintaining mineral balance in the human body. The vitamin D form synthesized in humans is called cholecalciferol.
  • Two types of Vitamin D, both offered by Divi’s, are used as supplements:
    • Vitamin D3 – (cholecalciferol) is produced in the body after exposure to ultraviolet B light from the sun or from artificial sources. In nature, it is found in very few foods. Because of this, supplementation is primarily achieved using synthesized Vitamin D3.
    • Vitamin D2 –  (ergocalciferol) is obtained from the UV irradiation of a yeast sterol and is found naturally in sun-exposed mushrooms. Due to the plant source of D2, it is viewed as more acceptable in vegan diets.
  • Scientific research continues to emerge supporting the positive health impact of Vitamin D including: normal absorption/utilization of calcium and phosphorous, muscle function, oral health, immune system function, cognitive function and cell division.
  • Given the health importance of Vitamin D, beginning in 2021, FDA will require Vitamin D content on all Nutritional Labels (Learn More at the FDA )
