HI DEE

ORAL SOLUTION DROPS
Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol)
DESCRIPTION:
HI DEE
®
(Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol)) which maintains a
healthy Calcium and Phosphorus levels in the body for strong
bones and increases muscle strength in older adults, and it
also plays an active role in a healthy immune response.
Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) is the optimal form of vitamin D.
It is the form of vitamin D that the body manufactures when
the skin is exposed to UV radiation from sunlight (but the
ability to do so decreases as we age), and the form of most
efficiency for the body’s needs.
PROPERTIES:
After oral administration, Vitamin D3 is absorbed from the
intestine and transported in the blood via protein binding to
reach the liver where first hydroxylation occurs and then to
the kidney where second hydroxylation occurs.
Vitamin D is stored in reserved compartments such as adi-
pose and muscle tissues. Its plasma half-life is several days.
Vitamin D and their metabolites are excreted mainly in the
bile and in faeces with only small amounts appearing in the
urine.
