Most of our vitamin D comes from the sun. But there is a problem: many people in the UK never get what they need from sunlight alone because sunlight's ability to help us produce vitamin D is hampered by season (it only works in the summer), latitude (the UK is pretty far north), time of day (needs to be between 11am and 3pm), cloud cover (complete cloud cover reduces vitamin D synthesis by 50%), smog\/pollution (most of us live in cities), skin melanin content (the darker skinned you are, the less vitamin D you'll get from the sun) and sunscreen (SPF of 8 and above). Even in summer, when vitamin D is most available, it is estimated that 45% of the English population have vitamin D levels of less than 40nmol\/L (deficient) and that 75% fail to reach the 'optimal' level of 75nmol\/L.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe natural Vitamin D3 in this product is the same form produced by the body when the skin is exposed to sunlight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #094fb4;\"\u003eCautions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis product is not recommended for long term use and should only be used under the guidance of a practitioner.\u003cbr\u003eIf you have kidney problems, elevated calcium levels (blood or urine) or a tendency to form kidney stones do not take, except on the advice of a doctor.\u003cbr\u003eNot for children below 11 years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #094fb4;\"\u003eStorage Instructions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo be stored in a cool dry place and protected from light.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy to take, small capsules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure grade vitamin D3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for vegetarians\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the UK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse of Lamberts\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e4000iu Vitamin D3 requires specialist knowledge.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lamberts","offers":[{"title":"120 \/ Caps","offer_id":54013249814857,"sku":"8142-120","price":16.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0910\/9812\/0521\/files\/8142.jpg?v=1773223600","url":"https:\/\/goodhealthshop.co.uk\/products\/vitamin-d3-4000-iu-100ug","provider":"Good Health Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
