Biaron® D 400
dietary supplement
Recommendations
Biaron® Vitamin D 400 IU is a preparation used to supplement the diet of infants, children, and adults with vitamin D.
Vitamin D is necessary for the proper growth and development of bones in children.
Vitamin D supports:
- the proper function of the immune system;
- the proper function of muscles;
- the maintenance of healthy teeth and bones;
- the maintenance of the proper calcium blood levels;
- the proper absorption/use of calcium and phosphorus.
The amount of vitamin D in breast milk, which is the best food for infants, is insufficient and therefore should be supplemented with additional portions of this vitamin.
