Ergocalciferol is another name for Vitamin D. Vitamin D, in humans, helps with the absorption of calcium and phosphate. Ergocalciferol, or Vitamin D, are substances that are fat-soluble.
There are two main types of Vitamin D ( calciferol) : ergocalciferol (vitamin D2) and activated cholecalciferol (vitamin D3).
Vitamin A: Retinol, Vitamin B1: Thiamine, Vitamin B12: Cobalamin, Vitamin C: Ascorbic acid, Vitamin D: Calciferol, Vitamin E: Tocopherol, Vitamin K: Phylloquinone.
Vitamin D is produced by ultraviolet radiation on your skin. The UV light converts a precursor molecule to vitamin D.
All mammals can naturally synthesise vitamin D from cholesterol via sunlight. All ingested forms of vitamin D are actually additives or supplementary; there is no vitamin D in milk or other staple foods (it is added, and therefore not natural). Strictly speaking, vitamin D is not a vitamin at all, as a vitamin is, by definition, a chemical compound that cannot be synthesised by an organism.
There isn't a direct conversion between International Units (IU) and units (U) of vitamin D because they are measuring the same thing. The terms are just different ways to express the dosage of vitamin D.
No, absolutely not. If there are other ingredients in the vitamin for filler, they might, but vitamin D will not cause hives, it is an essential vitamin. Getting hives from vitamin D would be like getting hives from vitamin C.
