Vitamin D is important for bone health. Most studies show that lack of Vitamin D increases the risk of osteoporosis and the likelihood of hip and other non-spinal fractures.

Everyone is talking about vitamin D at the moment and its potential in helping to fight against viruses. Nevertheless, a vitamin D deficiency can still be extremely common for many different reasons.  For years the UK Government has recommended that people consider taking a vitamin D supplement during the winter months. However, with the latest media frenzy surrounding vitamin D, people are becoming more aware of just how important it can be as an everyday vitamin. So much so, that English and Scottish authorities have even started to provide free vitamin D supplies to those shielding during the pandemic.  Who might have a vitamin D deficiency?   1. Those with low or no exposure to the sun Our main source of vitamin D is from the sun. This is because we produce vitamin D in our skin when exposed to the UV light. However, due to typical lack of sunlight in the UK and Europe and especially during the autumn and winter months, our bodies can be deprived o...

When you get used to something, you can sometimes forget what made you choose it in the first place. That’s why we think it’s high time that we outlined what makes us different from the rest when it comes to nutritional supplements. Here are just five reasons why we stand out from the crowd. 1. Founded On Science In a sector which all too often asks people to take things on trust, we see things very differently. Our philosophy is rooted in nutritional science – if it doesn’t make the grade, we simply aren’t interested. That is why our product development is based on more than 10,000 different scientific studies and why our products have been used in more than 300 published studies carried out by researchers from around the world. It’s why our Q10 supplement – Bio-Quinone Q10 – is used as the standard for international Q10 research and why our Vitamin D supplement – Bio-Vitamin D3 – is currently being used in the largest clinical trial to date on vitamin D and Covid-19. 2. Quality witho...

Scientists hope that the large-scale trial will help to find out if correcting people’s vitamin D deficiencies over winter can reduce the risk and/or severity of Covid-19 and other acute respiratory infections. Chosen for its documented quality Pharma Nord’s Bio-D3 800 IU has been chosen for the Coronavit study because of its long-established use in other clinical trials and a number of previously published studies which show  Bio-D3 800 IU effectiveness and its ability to raise vitamin D levels in the blood. Bent Henriksen, Pharma Nord UK managing director, said: "To be chosen for one of the most important and hig...
