Innovative vitamin D3 for health
Vitamin D3: a global health issue
Vitamin D3 is vital to overall health, yet millions worldwide face a deficiency, often due to limited dietary sources.
Reducing deficiencies has become a global health priority,
prompting rising demand for more efficient, natural, and sustainable food products.
Nutriearth addresses this widespread health concern with innovative, natural solutions, crafting vitamin D3 sources that both support human health and protect our planet.

Vitamin D absorption
Both humans and dogs can utilize ergocalciferol (D2) and cholecalciferol (D3). Cats, on the other hand, are uniquely adapted to benefit more from Vitamin D3. With a higher plasma concentration of 25(OH)D3 than 25(OH)D2, cats rely on D3 for effective vitamin absorption, due to a binding protein that’s more compatible with Vitamin D3 metabolites.
Vitamin D sources
Vitamin D is a vital, fat-soluble nutrient that living organisms need for optimal function and health. Two forms are approved for dietary use: Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol). While Vitamin D3 is primarily found in animal-based sources and certain plants, Vitamin D2 is only present in specific plant foods. Traditionally, the most recognized sources of Vitamin D3 have been lanolin and cod liver oil.
Why vitamin D?
Vitamin D plays a critical role in the body’s ability to stimulate intestinal absorption and renal reabsorption of calcium and phosphate, regulating mineral metabolism needed for strong, healthy bones. As a result, it is an important nutrient for calcium and phosphorus homeostasis, building a stronger foundation for lifelong wellbeing.
Vitamin D contributes to humans maintaining:
– normal serum calcium
– normal bones
– normal muscle function
– normal teeth
– normal function of the immune system
