Vitamin D3 deficiency can occur due to limited sunlight exposure or a diet lacking in vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 is essential for calcium and phosphate absorption, necessary for healthy bones and teeth, preventing conditions like rickets, osteomalacia, and osteoporosis. It also plays a vital role in preventing pre-eclampsia during pregnancy and supporting infant growth. Vitamin D3 is also known to boost immunity. Vitamin D3 regulates calcium and phosphate homeostasis and bone mineralization. It aids in calcium absorption from the GI tract and stimulates bone formation.

Possible side effects include hypercalcemia syndrome, anorexia, headache, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, or constipation.
The active form of Vitamin D3, Calcitriol, binds to Vitamin D receptors (VDRs) distributed in body tissues. Vitamin D3 is absorbed in the small intestine, metabolized to 25-hydroxy Vitamin D3 (Calcidiol) in the liver, and further hydroxylated to 1,25-dihydroxy Vitamin D3 (Calcitriol) in the kidney. This metabolite increases calcium absorption. Non-metabolized Vitamin D3 is stored in tissues. It is eliminated via feces and urine.
