Forti-D® 2,000 IU is a transparent light yellow oval soft gelatin capsule containing colorless liquid substance.
WHAT IS IN THE MEDICINE?
This product contains vitamin D. Vitamin D is required for normal bone formation. Vitamin D acts to maintain normal concentrations of calcium and phosphorus in plasma, mainly by facilitating calcium absorption from the small intestine and by enhancing the parathyroid hormone
(PTH)-mediated mobilization of calcium and phosphorus from bone.
The active form of vitamin D increases the production of calcium-binding proteins in the lining of the small intestine. Vitamin D deficiency develops when both sunlight exposure and dietary intake are inadequate. Insufficiency is associated with negative calcium balance, bone loss and increased risk of skeletal fracture. Vitamin D has been shown to have an important role in strengthening immunity and may decrease risks from some respiratory infections. Vitamin D deficiency is closely associated with an increased risk of developing chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cognitive decline and depression, thus, dietary supplementation may be beneficial.STRENGTH OF THE MEDICINE Please see formulation.
