Vitamin D is a vital nutrient that plays a crucial role in numerous bodily functions, from building strong bones to supporting a healthy immune system. While our bodies can produce vitamin D from sunlight, shorter days and increased cloud cover can make it difficult to get enough, especially during winter.
Here at Holland & Barrett, we know just how important it is to keep your vitamin D levels topped up. That's why we offer a range of convenient options, including vitamin D oil capsules, tablets, chewy gummies, mini drops and sprays, to suit your preferences. You’ll also find different types, from high-strength vitamin D to vitamin D3 for bone health.
We all need vitamin D, but some may need it more than others:
People with dark skin as their skin produces less vitamin D from sunlight.
People who spend little time outdoors including those who work indoors, cover most of their skin when outdoors, or live in areas with limited sunlight.
Older adults as the skin's ability to produce vitamin D decreases with age.
Pregnant and breastfeeding women need extra vitamin D to support their own and their baby's health.
Children aged 1 to 4 can be at increased risk of deficiency.
People with certain medical conditions such as Crohn's disease, or coeliac disease.
