As you know, due to FSSAI regulations, we are required to reformulate to ensure that all our products do not exceed the RDA set by ICMR in India.
As a result, we have had to make changes to some of our products, and to compensate for the reduction of strength, we have increased the number of servings per bottle.
The RDA for Vitamin D3 is 600 IU per day. Hence, we can only offer 600 IU per serving.

The molecular structure of Vitamin D3 has a close resemablnce to that of steroid hormones such as astradiol, cortisol, and aldosterone – and it is referred to by researchers as a secosteroid hormone. It is one of the foremost regulating factors for calcium homeostasis. In order to function within the body, vitamin D3 is reduced to its metabolite 1α 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Then, it functions in sync with vitamin D receptors found in almost every tissue type and cells in the body to bring out the optimum impact of vitamin D.
Vitamin D deficiency is a global health issue that afflicts about 1 billion people worldwide, while 50% of the population has vitamin D insufficiency. Vitamin D deficiency may be related to populations who have limited sun exposure due to geographical location, higher skin melanin content. 80% of adults in India are Vitamin D deficient. 96% of the elderly population in India is Vitamin D deficient [1].
Inadequate exposure to sunlight is one of the major causes of vitamin D insufficiency or deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency can also result from several other causes like decreased dietary intake and or absorption, decreased endogenous synthesis, and increased catabolic metabolism.
Sufficient vitamin D is required for optimal health. It is a versatile vitamin with multiple action. Several studies have shown positive and potential effects of Vitamin D3 on several bone diseases, muscle weakness, more than a dozen types of internal cancers, multiple sclerosis, and type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Vitamin D3 is approximately 87% more potent in raising and maintaining vitamin D concentrations and produces 2 to 3-fold greater storage of Vitamin D than vitamin D2.
MCT 70% from pure conouts aids in transport and absorption of vitamin D3 in the body ensuring optimal absorption into the bloodstream for effective results.
Mode of Action:
Vitamin D exerts its mechanism of action by binding to the vitamin D receptor, a hormone receptor present at the nucleus inside the cell. Vitamin D receptors are present in the small intestine, colon, T and B lymphocytes, mononuclear cells, brain, and skin. Thus it elucidates a wide range of action
- It stimulates intestinal calcium and phosphorus absorption [2].
- May help increase muscle strength by preserving muscle fibres, which in turn helps to prevent falls [4].
- Vitamin D metabolites act on multiple domains of cardiovascular function including those related to inflammation, and thrombosis [3].
- It stimulates nitric oxide (NO) production protects against oxidative stress and prevents endothelial apoptosis [3].
- Vitamin D and its analogs consistently suppress pro-inflammatory cytokines and increase anti-inflammatory cytokines [3].
- Vitamin D also plays a role in regulating immune function. It induces B cell proliferation and the secretion of immunoglobulins E and M, leading to the formation of memory B cells [3].
