AOR Vitamin D3 1000 IU (120 Softgels)

AOR Sustainable Vitamin D3

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is naturally present in very few foods, added to others, and available as a dietary supplement.Vitamin D, when taken as food or supplement, is absorbed in your intestine. From here, vitamin D is collected by a binding protein and taken to the liver and converted to calcidiol, a process called ‚Äúhydroxylation‚ . It promotes calcium absorption in the gut and maintains adequate calcium and phosphate concentrations to enable normal mineralization of bone. Vitamin D has other roles in the body, including modulation of cell growth, neuromuscular and immune function, and reduction of inflammation.

AOR 's Vegan Vitamin D3 is sustainably sourced from organic Lichen and not from the commonly used Lanolin derived from sheep 's wool. As part of the Eco Series Vitamin D3 is also formulated in a carrageenan-free vegan softgel, offering optimal absorption and suitability for various dietary preferances or restrictions, while promoting environmental sustainability.

Keeping with our committment to sustainability, all of AOR 's Eco Series product labels and printed materials have been printed on stone paper. Stone Paper is made from reclaimed limestone (calcium carbonate), recycled concrete, and a small amount of HDPE (high density polyethylene). These components are combined in an environmentally friendly manufacturing process under pressure and heat, using no water, dyes, or bleaches. One tonne of stone paper saves 20 trees and 16,000 gallons of water, resulting in a carbon footprint rudction of 67% when compared to pulp paper.
