Maximum daily dose for better vitamin D status
Grassberg Vitamin D3 4000 IU capsules contain 100 μg of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). This form is considered desirable and most usable. The amount of 4000 IU is the upper limit that the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) considers safe for consumption. Vitamin D has been proven to help immunity, bone and tooth health, and participates in numerous important processes in the body.
Grassberg vitamin D3 4000 IU is primarily intended for people who have proven low levels of vitamin D (25(OH)D) in the blood (below 30 nmol/L or 12 ng/mL). In general, people who spend little time in the sun, people with darker skin, obese people, the elderly population and people with increased needs due to autoimmune diseases or absorption disorders are particularly exposed to vitamin D3 deficiency. However, pregnant women, people taking medications that affect vitamin D metabolism, and those with kidney disease and hypercalcemia should be cautious with high doses of vitamin D3.

Vitamin D3 4000 IU | Grassberg
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that we get from eating fatty fish, butter or egg yolks. The body produces the largest amount of it when we expose our skin to the sun’s UVB rays. Once known only as a vitamin associated with proper bone development, today it is known as a vitamin that participates in most biochemical processes in the body.
Grassberg Vitamin D3 4000 IU contains a large dose of 4,000 IU (100 μg) of vitamin D3 in one capsule. 4,000 IU per day may be especially beneficial for
• People with low blood levels of vitamin D
– low blood levels are below 30 nmol/L or 12 ng/mL
• People with little sun exposure
– In winter, especially in northern latitudes
– People who spend a lot of time indoors, wear protective clothing or use strong UV protection
• People with darker skin
– Darker-skinned people need more UVB radiation than lighter-skinned people to synthesize the same amount of vitamin D
• Elderly people (65+)
– Skin synthesizes vitamin D less well with age
– They are at higher risk of osteoporosis and weakened immunity
– People with autoimmune diseases
• Autoimmune diseases (e.g. multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis), with supervision
– Food absorption disorders
• People with excess weight and adipose tissue
– Vitamin D is fat-soluble, so in obese people large amount is stored in adipose tissue and remains trapped and is less effective available in circulation

Cholecalciferol is a form of vitamin D identical to the one produced by the body under the influence of sunlight.
