The sun vitamin for young & old.
Burgerstein Vitamin D3 spray contains vitamin D3 in the form of the easily metabolizable cholecalciferol. The tasteless spray, based on coconut oil, is of course alcohol-free and therefore also ideal for children.
Vitamin D3 spray replaces the well-known vitamin D3 liquid (600 IU) since December 2020.
Vitamin D3 contributes to the absorption and utilization of calcium and the maintenance of normal bone mass. Muscle function and the immune system also need vitamin D3 in a sufficient quantity. Children need vitamin D3 for healthy growth and bone development. Burgerstein D3 liquid does not contain alcohol.
Vitamin D3, also called cholecalciferol, is the form of vitamin D that our skin synthesizes from cholesterol when exposed to the sun (UV-B). Activation of vitamin D3 occurs in the liver, and further conversion to calcitriol occurs in the kidney.
- Cholecalciferol (also known as colecalciferol or calciol for short) is the main physiological form of vitamin D in humans. Cholecalciferol is the precursor of active vitamin D, which plays a central role in the regulation of calcium and phosphate metabolism. It is used as a mono-preparation to prevent and treat vitamin D deficiency. In combination with calcium, it is used against osteoporosis. Cholecalciferol is converted in the body to the active ingredient calcitriol.

Vitamin D determination
If there is a suspicion of a disease that could be related to vitamin D deficiency, one should definitely have a vitamin D determination done.
Calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D, is present in the blood only in very low concentrations and is difficult to measure. In addition, it has a short half-life and the calcitriol value often does not give reliable information about the vitamin D reserves in the body. The storage form calcidiol (25-hydroxy vitamin D) is better suited for diagnosing vitamin D deficiency. This is determined in most laboratories.
Already at the end of 2010, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) of the US National Academy of Sciences recommended aiming for a blood level of 20 ng/ml. The IOM had previously examined almost 1000 studies with vitamin D and/or calcium. It confirmed the long-known connection between vitamin D supply and bone quality.
