Vitamin D3, Calcium & Phosphorus Balance in Dogs & Cats

Vitamin D3 plays a central role in calcium and phosphorus metabolism, influencing skeletal integrity, neuromuscular function, and mineral homeostasis.

Physiological Role

• Enhancement of intestinal calcium absorption
• Regulation of serum phosphorus levels
• Support of bone mineralisation and remodeling

Veterinary Considerations

Both deficiency and excess of Vitamin D3 can have clinical consequences. Supplementation must be carefully guided by dietary evaluation, life stage, and patient-specific clinical needs.

Veterinary-directed formulations such as VetD3 Nano Shots may be incorporated under professional supervision.
