What are the special features of our
Vitamin D3 + K2?
Vitamin D is one of the essential nutrients for humans. It is not usually obtained through food, but primarily through sunlight, which is why vitamin D is also called the sunshine vitamin. When absorbed through the skin, vitamin D then assumes the role of a prohormone in the body, with numerous functions.
Vitamin D is considered proven
- promotes normal calcium levels in the blood
- supports the maintenance of normal bones and normal muscle function
- plays a role in cell division
- ensures normal functioning of the immune system and normal teeth
Vitamin K is also one of the essential components that we usually obtain through food. In conjunction with vitamin D, it is essential for maintaining normal bones and also ensures normal blood clotting.
What can I expect from Vitamin D3 plus K2?
Studies have shown that the local population is poorly supplied with vitamin D. Unfavorable longitudes and latitudes, and in connection with this, unfavorable sunlight with too few hours of sunshine, make sufficient absorption difficult. In addition, too few hours in the sun due to everyday clothed activities in rooms make a full supply of vitamin D virtually impossible, even in sunny months. Since only small amounts of vitamin D can be obtained from certain animal foods, the use of a supplement such as vitamin D3 plus K2 is a perfect way to close supply gaps. Vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 work hand in hand and are each present in this product in a highly bioavailable form as vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 (MK-7).
Functionality and mode of action of vitamin D3 plus K2
It is now known that there are almost 50 tissues in the human body that have a receptor for vitamin D. If a receptor is present, this means that vitamin D, in its form as the prohormone "25-D," can exert certain effects on all of these tissues. This fact means that a sufficient supply of vitamin D can now be proven to have numerous positive effects on the human body. For example, it not only contributes to the maintenance of normal calcium levels, normal bones, and normal muscle function, but also promotes the functionality of the immune system, supports the maintenance of healthy teeth, and performs an independent function in cell division.
In addition to vitamin D, vitamin K also plays an important role in bone metabolism. In cases of vitamin K deficiency, vitamin D is unable to effectively distribute calcium stores to the bones, which hinders the maintenance of healthy bones. Combined administration, such as vitamin D3 plus K2, therefore seems extremely sensible, especially since both are present here in their most effective form as vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 (MK-7).
