2 Natural Vitamin D 3 Essential for Good Health Vitamin D nutrition affects major aspects of human health, including its classical role in assisting calcium metabolism. Higher blood concentrations of vitamin D have been associated with strong bones and good health.* Vitamin D has more functions and health benefits than formerly realized; yet sadly, many people are not getting an adequate amount of this essential nutrient. This is especially true during the late autumn, winter and early spring months. Our bodies can make vitamin D 3, but only when our skin is exposed to sunlight under the proper conditions. This production is dependent on the season, where we live and the time of day. Even using sunscreen reduces the body s production of vitamin D. Using sunscreen with a SPF of 8 reduces the production of vitamin D 3 by 95%! The full body surface of some of our ancestors was exposed to the sun almost daily. In contrast, today, most of us usually cover up all except a small percent of our skin *These statements have not been evaluated by the F.D.A.

3 The Sunshine Vitamin surface and it is rare for us to spend much time in unshielded sunlight. Total-body sun exposure easily provides the equivalent of 250 mcg (10,000 IU) of vitamin D. (1) Because of these reasons, supplemental vitamin D is increasingly important for many people. Carlson offers vitamin D 3 in many strengths and forms, so you can be sure you receive the vitamin D that you need. In late 2010, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released a new report and guidelines for vitamin D. The new guidelines tripled the amount of vitamin D recommended for most Americans - from 200 IU per day (set in 1997) to 600 IU. The RDA for older adults (aged 71 and older) was also raised to 800 IU. The IOM did conclude that higher amounts advised by some experts are safe. People may choose to take amounts suggested by health professionals to bring about a higher vitamin D status. There are no known adverse effects to increasing your vitamin D intakes if you stay within the safe upper level of 4,000 IU daily. (1) Vieth, R.
