Thorne guarantees natural supplements based on scientific research.</p> <h4><span style="color:#78509a;">The Importance of Vitamin D in D-1000</span></h4> <p>Vitamin D is a special case within the definition of vitamins. Vitamins are defined as substances that the human body cannot produce itself. They are therefore substances that we have to obtain from our food and drink every day. But with vitamin D, things are different. Our body produces vitamin D itself under the influence of sunlight. However, vitamin D can only be produced when the sun is high enough in the sky. In the Netherlands, this is the case in the summer months between approximately 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. Outside this period, the amount of UV-B is too low for sufficient vitamin D production in our skin. In many cases, the body's own production of vitamin D is also too low. Our body is then unable to produce sufficient vitamin D itself. In this case, we are dependent on the supply from external sources, such as food. However, this sounds easier than it is. Only very few (plant-based) foods contain easily absorbable and usable vitamin D for your body. Supplementing with suitable nutritional supplements, such as this D-1000 , can then be useful.</p> <h4><span style="color:#78509a;">About the quality of Torne</span></h4> <p>Since 1984, Thorne has been producing high-quality supplements.
