MAXIMUM D3® 10,000 IU
PHARMACEUTICAL QUALITY CHOLECALCIFEROL 0.25mg FOR VITAMIN D
SUPPLEMENTATION Patent Pending
MAXIMUM D3® is a pharmaceutical quality preparation
of vitamin D3 designed to be used as a nutritional
supplement to support bone health. It is intended as a maintenance
preparation - to be taken weekly on a regular basis. The formulation
of MAXIMUM D3® has been carefully considered with regards to adequate
amount, dosing convenience, and safety. Taken weekly by adults it is
expected to maintain adequate blood levels of vitamin D and - when used
in conjunction with adequate calcium intake - to assist in the prevention
of osteoporosis.
The pill is a small hard gel cap containing 0.25 mg of pharmaceutical
quality cholecalciferol in an oil base. The only ingredients are vitamin
D3, non-GMO soybean lecithin, and Kosher bovine gelatin. The capsules are manufactured,
packaged and warehoused in FDA registered facilities. The product
was submitted to and reviewed by the FDA prior to manufacture. Quality,
packaging and stability are to available USP (and FDA) standards. The
capsules are mounted on a push out card of 5 for convenience and safety
in dosing. Hence, one card is a 5 week supply.
A single gel cap contains approximately the same amount - of the same
human hormone - a light skinned person would make if exposed to summer
sun for a few hours. (This
has been demonstrated in lifeguards.)
WHAT DOES VITAMIN D DO?
Vitamin D's actions are best understood in its role in calcium metabolism.
Without it a person is not able to absorb the calcium in his or her diet
or maintain the proper balance of calcium and phosphorus to build and
maintain bones. Lack of vitamin D can also cause over stimulation of
the parathyroid gland and muscle aches and weakness.
Vitamin D is also metabolized and has activity in many other tissues. Its
functions appear very important to a number of basic immune system processes.
These are areas of active research. Definitive claims or conclusions
about these processes are premature.
