Many people hear they should take Vitamin D for bone health and “other stuff” but what type is best? D2? D3? Cholecalciferol? In this video Dr. Brian Smith DC, a Certified Nutrition Specialist, describes the different types of Vitamin D and which is best for most people.

Hi i’m dr. brian smith a chiropractic physician and a certified nutrition specialist these days you hear a lot about vitamin d it comes from the sun it’s in milk it’s good for bones and so on and so forth there’s a lot of information out there and sometimes it can be confusing so what i’d like to talk about today is the different types of vitamin d and what type

Is best now the most common type of vitamin d that’s prescribed and recommended by medical physicians is vitamin d2 it’s also known as forego calcifer all it’s considered a synthetic version of vitamin d because it’s made by irradiating yeast fungus and plant matter vitamin d3 is the type of vitamin d that’s created by your body when the uv radiation from the sun

Hits your skin and it’s also known as called calcifer all so if you’re looking on a supplement bottle you want to look for cold calcifer all d3 is also the type of vitamin d that’s found naturally in foods such as fatty fish fish oil eggs and liver it’s considered the natural form of vitamin d now both vitamin d2 and vitamin d3 are known as pro hormones meaning

They are the building blocks of the active form of vitamin d which actually acts as a hormone in your body not a vitamin now both of them are considered inactive meaning they have absolutely no effect on the body until they’re converted into the active form now at one time experts consider vitamin d2 and d3 equivalent and interchangeable but that was based on

Research that was done decades ago we know now that that’s not true see we know according to the latest research we know that vitamin d3 is approximately 87% more potent in raising the but and maintaining the vitamin d concentrations in your blood vitamin d3 also enables the body to store two to three times more vitamin d then does d2 so vitamin d is going to

Help you storm or vitamin d and regardless of which form you use remember your body must convert it into a more active form and we know that vitamin d3 is converted five hundred percent faster than vitamin d2 so by all accounts vitamin d3 is superior to vitamin d2 so research recent research indicates that you’re taking a vitamin d supplement you’re better off

Taking vitamin d3 than the more commonly prescribed vitamin d2 now vitamin d supplements usually come in capsules or liquid form both work well but it’s been my experience that a liquid vitamin d supplement often works better than a vitamin d that comes in capsules simply because so many people have digestive issues that sometimes the cast capsules aren’t digested

Very well which affects your ability to absorb the vitamin d in the first place now i appreciate you taking the time to watch this video hopefully you learned something useful from this presentation if you think you know someone who might be able to benefit from this information tag them in the comment section below then like and share this video if you have any
