VITAMINS AND SUPPLEMENTS
Vita-D in the fight against osteoporosis
Vita-D helps build strong
bones by promoting the
absorption of calcium. A
diet deficient in calcium
can lead to osteoporosis
later in life. Vita-D can
also help improve muscle
strength in older people,
which may reduce the
incidence of falls in this
group. Each Vita-D soft
gel capsule contains vitamin D3 1,000 IU. Vita-D gel caps contain no sugar, lactose, yeast, gluten, dairy, salt, artificial preservatives, colourings or flavourings. Vita-D gel caps are available in two pack sizes: 60s and 250s.
RRP: Vita-D soft gel caps 60s, $8.60, 250s, $24.20
