An Introduction to Vitamin D
Ultraviolet rays convert Provitamin D in Vitamin D in the skin. This Vitamin D enters the circulation where it is taken up in the liver. Another source of Vitamin D is through absorption by the small intestine, this may also be taken up in the liver.
In the liver Vitamin D is hydroxylated. This hydroxylated Vitamin D enters the circulation where it can be further hydroxylated in the kidney to produce Active Vitamin D. This fully active Vitamin D enters the circulation.
