Like a daily dose of sunshine

Sunshine, we all love it! We need it to be healthy and produce Vitamin D3, which is essential for optimal health.

Vitamin D3 is an all-star nutrient known as the sunshine vitamin because it's essential for healthy bones, teeth, and muscles. Plus, it is vital in keeping your immune system strong and helps with calcium absorption.

It's no secret that many New Zealanders suffer from vitamin D deficiency, but thankfully, taking Vitamin D3 supplements are an easy way to make up for any dietary deficiencies. This ensures that your body is getting the support it needs.

Identifying a Vitamin D deficiency can be challenging since many people don't experience any noticeable symptoms. However, there may be some signs to watch out for.

These signs can include:

• bone pain

• fatigue

• muscle aches

• mood changes

• and an increased risk of fractures.

Getting more Vitamin D is achievable through various methods, such as increasing safe sun exposure, incorporating vitamin D-rich foods into your diet - such as eggs, mushrooms or oily fish, or taking daily supplements. Holland & Barrett Vitamin D liquid drops have a delicious orange flavour and are easily absorbed in liquid form. You can mix it into a smoothie, low-sugar juice, or water, making it easy to get your daily dose of vitamin D. Drinking this supplement is like sipping a glass of sunshine, and your body will thank you for it!
