Posted by: azteclizard at Tue Jul 1 15:21:54 2003 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by azteclizard ] No, they use UV (as we do) to "create" d3. UV triggers a chemical reaction in the body that converts one compound to d3. The d3 in turn aids in absorption of calcium. The same thing happens when d3 is consumed in the diet(dietary d3). This is why a UV buld is not necessary to raise a dragan, AS LONG AS you use a calcium supplement with d3. | ||
