What does it do?

Cholecalciferol concentrate is a concentrated form of vitamin D3 and belongs to the category of fat-soluble vitamins. It is primarily used in pharmaceuticals to prevent or treat vitamin D deficiency.

In the body, cholecalciferol is converted to active vitamin D in the liver and kidneys, promoting the absorption of calcium and phosphorus. This plays a crucial role in the formation and maintenance of bones.

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

Good to know

Unlike vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol), cholecalciferol is primarily derived from animal sources and tends to be activated more effectively in the body.
