What does it do?

Concentrated Cholecalciferol granules are a form of vitamin D3, used to enhance the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the body. They are primarily included in medications that help maintain bone health and prevent osteoporosis.

This ingredient increases the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the intestines, regulating blood calcium levels. This helps calcium to be properly stored in bones, maintaining their strength.
