BioActive D-Pearls Junior 5µg (200IU) 80 Capsules
BioActive D-Pearls Junior 5µg (200IU) 80 Capsules
Gentle daily vitamin D3 for children's bone development, teeth and immune support
BioActive D-Pearls Junior from Pharma Nord provides 5µg (200IU) of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) in each tiny soft capsule. The vitamin D3 is dissolved in cold-pressed olive oil to support optimal absorption, as vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin. Designed specifically for children aged 2 years and over, these easy-to-swallow capsules can also be chewed or pierced and added to food or drink. Each pack contains 80 capsules, providing nearly 3 months' supply at the recommended daily dose.
Overview
BioActive D-Pearls Junior provides vitamin D3, the same form of vitamin D naturally produced in the skin following sunlight exposure. Vitamin D is particularly important during childhood because it is needed for the normal growth and development of bones in children and also contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
The oil-based formulation provides excellent bioavailability, while the small capsule size makes daily supplementation easy for children. Capsules may be swallowed whole, chewed, or pierced so the contents can be mixed with food or drink if preferred.
