Dr. Feb's Analysis
Scientific Mechanism
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is the active form of vitamin D. It binds to receptors in the small intestine to enhance calcium and phosphorus absorption, which is critical for mineralizing bone tissue. At a cellular level, Vitamin D3 regulates gene expression for bone growth. The Super Fruit and Veggie Blend provides phytonutrients that offer antioxidant support, helping protect cells from oxidative stress. This mechanism supports skeletal development and immune function.
Key Benefits
Key benefits include:
- Supports healthy bone mineralization and growth in children
- Promotes robust immune system function
- Aids in normal muscle development and function
- Provides antioxidant protection from fruit/veggie phytonutrients
- Essential for calcium absorption regulation
Usage & Safety
Best practices: Chew one tablet daily, do not swallow whole. It is best taken with a meal containing healthy fats to maximize absorption of the fat-soluble vitamin D3. Consult a pediatrician before use, especially if the child takes other supplements containing vitamin D or medications like thiazide diuretics (risk of hypercalcemia). Keep out of reach of children.
