    Question about 5 years ago

    How does Arachitol work?

    Dr. Abhijit MBBS , General Physician

    Arachitol contains cholecalciferol also known as vitamin D3. It works by restoring the normal levels of vitamin D3 in the body which promotes the calcium and phosphate absorption in the intestine and its retention from the kidneys. Normally, vitamin D3 comes from dietary sources and it is also synthesized in the skin by sunlight. It plays multiple roles in our bodies such as maintaining normal levels of calcium in the body through its absorption in the intestine and its retention by the kidneys. In case of malabsorption states, the body is not able to absorb this vital nutrient from the small intestine and also in case of liver diseases vitamin D3 is not converted into its active form by the liver which leads to its deficiency. Due to this, its normal levels are not available in the body and the roles played by vitamin D3 are affected. Arachitol restores the optimum levels of vitamin D3 in the body which helps in treating its deficiency.
