Vitomin D3 contains Cholecalciferol 60,000 IU (International units). Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) is a fat-soluble vitamin, that helps the body to absorb calcium and phosphorous found in food and supplements. Vitamin D is made by the body when the skin is exposed to sunlight. Sunscreen, protective clothing, limited exposure to sunlight, dark skin, and age may prevent getting enough vitamin D from the sun, thus leading to Vitamin D3 Deficiency. Thus, Vitamin D3 in Vitomin D3 tablet is essential for calcium absorption in the body.
Other uses of Vitamin D3 are building and keeping the bones & teeth strong, reducing Fatigue/stress and muscular pains, and boosting immunity, and increasing resistance against infection. It is also used as a supplement for patients with diabetic complications and cardiovascular diseases as well.
The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) recommends a daily supplement of 400 IU/day of Vitamin D3 for Indians with an emphasis on outdoor activities to achieve adequate amounts of Vitamin D. If you are not meeting your daily requirement of Vitamin D3 or are suffering from Vitamin D3 deficiency, supplements that contain Vitamin D3, such as Vitomin-D3 60K tablets, should be taken.
