What does it do?

Concentrated cholecalciferol powder is a form of vitamin D3 that functions as vitamin D in the body. It is primarily used to promote the absorption of calcium and phosphorus to maintain bone and dental health. In pharmaceuticals, it is included to prevent or treat vitamin D deficiency.

In the body, concentrated cholecalciferol powder is converted to active vitamin D in the liver and kidneys, increasing the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the intestines. This helps maintain blood calcium levels and facilitates 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, concentrated cholecalciferol powder is of animal origin in the form of vitamin D3, which is activated more effectively in the body. It also differs from other vitamins by directly promoting calcium absorption.
