Ultraplex Vitamin D3
Brand: Elevation Health
Dr. Feb's Analysis
Scientific Mechanism
At the cellular level, Vitamin D (Cholecalciferol) is a secosteroid hormone. It binds to the Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) located in the nucleus of cells throughout the body. This binding regulates the transcription of genes involved in calcium absorption in the intestines and bone mineralization. It also modulates the immune response by influencing T-cell activation and cytokine production. The 5000 IU dose is designed to correct deficiencies and maintain optimal serum levels for these physiological processes.
Key Benefits
Key benefits include:
- Supports calcium absorption for strong bones and teeth
- Enhances immune system function and response
- Contributes to mood regulation and cognitive health
- Promotes healthy muscle function and strength
Usage & Safety
Take 1 capsule daily with a meal containing dietary fat to maximize absorption. Vitamin D is fat-soluble. Do not exceed recommended dosage. Consult a healthcare provider before use, especially if pregnant, nursing, taking medications (like thiazides or statins), or have kidney stones.
