Heaptalk, Jakarta — Kalbe Farma held the D-Family Festive: From Zero to Hero event on Wednesday (09/11) in Jakarta. According to Selvinna, PT Kalbe Farma‘s Marketing Deputy Director, the event discussed the role of mothers in providing vitamin D3 to their families.
“In daily activities, vitamin D3 plays a vital role in health and individual development and is one of the essential elements in the growth process. This vitamin helps regulate the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, which are important for strong bones and teeth. In addition, vitamin D3 is crucial for immune function, brain development, and overall well-being,” Selvinna explained.
Selvinna further stated, “Why mothers? Because a mother is the central figure in maintaining the family’s health, both for the husband and children. This role is carried out even while the child is still in the womb; one is by choosing good, high-quality vitamin D3, whose benefits have been felt by millions of people.”
She continued by saying that the theme ‘From Zero to Hero’ illustrates a mother’s long journey to provide for the family’s health, starting from when the child is in the womb, through birth, and into adulthood. “The role of mothers as health heroes for their families must always be appreciated,” emphasized Selvinna.
At the same event, Obstetrician and Gynecologist Dr. Ardiansjah Dara Sjahruddin, SpOG, MKes, FICS, stated that during the crucial stages of pregnancy, a mother must be very mindful of the food, drinks, and vitamins she consumes. This is important to ensure the baby is born healthy and grows well.
“In addition to food, pregnant women can also take the right vitamin D3 to ensure that the fetus grows properly and that the mother stays healthy during pregnancy. One of the objectives of today’s educational event is to raise awareness, especially among mothers, about the importance of adequate vitamin D3 intake,” he explained.
Pediatrician Dr. Yoga Yandika, Sp.A, added that a mother’s important role in maintaining family health continues through the child’s golden growth period. Adequate vitamin D3 intake can help children avoid diseases related to bone health, support brain development, and strengthen the immune system.
“Indonesia is rich in sunlight, which is one source of vitamin D. However, many people are still unaware that they are experiencing a deficiency in vitamin D3 intake. Therefore, today’s educational activities are important to inform the public, especially mothers, about fulfilling their vitamin D3 needs,” said Dr. Yoga.
Selecting the proper vitamin D3 is also essential, considering the wide range of vitamins available on the market. Mothers need to ensure that the vitamin D3 they choose comes from a trusted, high-quality, and tested producer and has been proven to benefit many people. As a supplement, Prove D3 is the best choice to maintain the family’s vitamin D3 intake, ensuring that mothers stay healthy and children grow and develop properly.
