Vitamin D is both a vitamin and a prohormone and is vital for healthy bones and teeth. Indeed, it plays an essential role in the metabolism of calcium in the body . It regulates the blood calcium level by improving the intestinal absorption of this mineral, while minimizing its elimination by the urine. It also participates in the deposition and removal of calcium from bones, according to the needs of the body. “Calciferol”, one of the other names for vitamin D, comes from Latin and means “who carries calcium”.
Vitamin D has also been called ” anti-rash vitamin ” because rickets, a growth disorder, is caused by a vitamin D deficiency. In North America, as well as in several industrialized countries, small amounts of vitamin D in milk and margarine in order to prevent this disease.
The vitamin D actually comprises a plurality of fat-soluble substances sometimes called provitamins D. These include provitamins ergocalciferol (D2 – plant form) and cholecalciferol (D3 – animal form). The body partially transforms them into calcitriol (in hormonal form), the compound that generates most of the beneficial effects. Calcitriol also controls many genes that regulate, for example, cell proliferation and differentiation and insulin secretion. It is therefore becoming increasingly evident that vitamin D plays a role that goes far beyond the health of bones and teeth.
The body can directly synthesize vitamin D through the skin, which is why it cannot be considered strictly or purely as a vitamin. Under the effect of the ultraviolet rays of the sun (hence the name “vitamin sun”), our body produces cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) which after a passage to the liver and then the kidney takes its active form (calcitriol).
Vitamin D is a special case among nutrients and drugs. In fact, it can accumulate in fats and the liver where it is stored. Depending on the needs of the body, it can be metabolized and put back into circulation.
