How NF Suncell 5000 IU Softgel Works

Vitamin D3 is the form of vitamin D the skin makes in sunlight. The body converts it in the liver and kidneys into its active form, which helps the gut absorb calcium and phosphorus and supports muscle function and immunity. Many people in Pakistan have low vitamin D because of indoor lifestyles, covered skin and air pollution, and a higher dose is used to raise low levels.

NF Suncell 5000 IU Softgel Uses

•       Low Vitamin D: raises vitamin D levels in people who are deficient

•       Bones and Teeth: helps the body absorb calcium and phosphorus

•       Muscle Strength: supports normal muscle function and helps reduce weakness

•       Immunity: supports normal immune function

Who Should Use NF Suncell 5000 IU Softgel

🛡 Precautions and Interactions

Taking 5000 IU every day for months without monitoring can raise blood calcium. Thiazide diuretics and calcium supplements add to this risk, and vitamin D can increase the effects of digoxin. Steroids, some epilepsy medicines and orlistat can lower vitamin D levels. Count vitamin D from other products, such as multivitamins and calcium tablets, toward your total.

🏠 Storage

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, with the container tightly closed. Keep out of reach of children.
