What does it do?

Concentrated cholecalciferol is a concentrated form of vitamin D3, used to promote the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the body. It is mainly included in medications as a calcium or vitamin supplement to support bone health. It helps prevent vitamin D deficiency or bone-related diseases.

In the body, concentrated cholecalciferol is converted to active vitamin D in the liver and kidneys, increasing calcium and phosphorus absorption in the intestines. This helps maintain blood calcium levels and strengthens bones. It also plays an important role in the processes of bone formation and remodeling.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

Unlike vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol), concentrated cholecalciferol is animal-derived vitamin D3, which is activated more effectively in the body. Additionally, in its concentrated oil form, it has a high absorption rate, providing excellent calcium supplementation effects.
