About Alfa-D 1mcg Capsule 100s

Vitamin D is known as the fat-soluble vitamin that includes vitamin D1, D2, and D3. Vitamin D is produced naturally by the body when it is exposed to direct sun. Studies have shown 20 minutes of sunbathing per day can significantly boost your immune cell and improve the ability of your defense system to fight against diseases such as bacteria and viruses, thereby reducing the risk of getting infected by illnesses such as flu.

Vitamin D can also be obtained through certain foods and supplements such as Alfa-D 1mcg Capsule to maintain adequate vitamin D levels in the blood. Vitamin D can be found in a variety of foods, including tuna, salmon, egg yolks, and mushrooms.

Vitamin D has many functions and the most important function is it is involved in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus and facilitating normal immune system function. You may be less likely to absorb enough vitamin D if you spent most of your time indoors, use sunscreen, or have darker skin because the higher the levels of melanin, the less vitamin D your skin can absorb.
