Now Foods Vitamina D-3 Crema - 4 fl. oz. (Paquete de 6)

What is Vitamin D3 and why in a cream?

Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is the most bioavailable form of vitamin D, which plays a fundamental role in numerous bodily functions. Although traditionally consumed orally, topical application offers a practical alternative for those seeking direct absorption through the skin. Now Foods Vitamin D-3 Cream is a moisturizing cream that provides 2,000 IU of vitamin D3 per 2 ml (approximately one pump), in a 4 fl. oz. (118 ml) format per container, and this pack includes 6 units for a prolonged supply.

Benefits of Vitamin D3 for skin and body*

Vitamin D is known for its multiple contributions to health, supported by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Among the most notable benefits are:

• Bone and teeth maintenance: Vitamin D contributes to the normal absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus, and to the maintenance of bones under normal conditions.*
• Muscle function: Contributes to normal muscle function.*
• Immune system: Helps the normal functioning of the immune system.*
• Healthy skin: Topical application of vitamin D3 can support cell renewal and the skin barrier, although the evidence is preliminary.

Additionally, when applied to the skin, the cream offers additional hydration without a greasy feel, ideal for daily use.

How to use Now Foods Vitamin D3 Cream?

The cream is designed for simple application. Shake the container well before use. Apply a small amount (approximately 2 ml, equivalent to one pump) to clean, dry skin, preferably on areas such as arms or legs. Massage gently until fully absorbed. It is recommended to use once a day or as directed by a healthcare professional. Each 4 oz container provides approximately 56 applications, and the 6-pack ensures you won't run out of your daily dose.

Who is this cream ideal for?
