What are the Application of Vitamin D3 Powder?

Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is a type of vitamin D and has been proven to be the true active form of vitamin D in the body. At present, at least ten types of vitamin D are known, but the most important ones are vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D chemicalbook 3 (cholecalciferol). Cholecalciferol, also known as vitamin D3, is the most important form of the vitamin D family. It mainly regulates calcium and phosphorus metabolism in the body. Vitamin D3 is converted from 7-dehydrocholesterol in the skin under ultraviolet radiation.

Vitamin D3 is a fat-soluble vitamin and is known as the "sunshine vitamin". Because when the skin is moderately exposed to the sun, most people can synthesize their own vitamin D by using ultraviolet rays and cholesterol in the skin. It is mainly composed of the human body itself. The skin of the human body contains a kind of cholesterol, which turns into vitamin D3 after being exposed to sunlight. Therefore, if children can be exposed to direct sunlight on their skin for more than 4 to 6 hours, the vitamin D3 they synthesize on their own can basically meet their needs.

1) Enhance the body's absorption of calcium and phosphorus to bring the levels of plasma calcium and plasma phosphorus to saturation.

2) Promote growth and bone calcification, and enhance dental health;

3) Increase phosphorus absorption through the intestinal wall and enhance phosphorus reabsorption through the renal tubules.

4) Maintain the normal level of citrate in the blood;

5) Prevent amino acids from being lost through the kidneys.

Vitamin drugs mainly promote the absorption and deposition of calcium and phosphorus in the intestines and are used to treat rickets and osteomalacia

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin. It is known that there are more than ten compounds with vitamin D effects, including non-series sterol derivatives. Among them, vitamin D2 and vitamin D3 have significant practical significance. D3 is the dominant substance in the world, and the "international standard substance" of vitamin D is also the pure crystal of D3. The main function of vitamin D is the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus. It is difficult to promote the absorption of calcium and phosphorus and the calcification of bones. When the human body lacks vitamin D, its ability to absorb calcium and phosphorus decreases, and the levels of calcium and phosphorus in the blood drop. This prevents calcium and phosphorus from depositing in bone tissue, and even bone salts may dissolve, hindering the calcification of bones. Children who lack it will suffer from rickets, while adults will get osteomalacia. Japan mainly produces and uses D2. Among various demands, the pharmaceutical industry accounts for 30%, feed additives for 65%, and food additives for 5%. According to the "Hygienic Standard for the Use of Food Nutrient Fortifiers (1993)" issued by the Ministry of Health of our country, D2 and D3, as nutritional supplements, can be used in liquid milk, margarine, dairy products and infant food.

It is mainly used in food, health care products and other related products
