Ostevit-D Drops 0-12 yr 15mL
SWAPS
Vitamin D, the sunshine vitamin, is unique as the body can manufacture it in skin that is exposed to the sun.
UVB is the only form of sunlight that stimulates this action. A molecule found in the skin cells absorbs UVB and produces cholecalciferol, a form of Vitamin D (also called Vitamin D3). Ergocalciferol or Vitamin D2 is another form of Vitamin D that is found in some plants. Both these forms of Vitamin D are inactive. It is a convenient way to take Vitamin D for those people who find swallowing tablets difficult and has a great butterscotch taste.
