Vitamin D plays a role in cell division. It contributes to the maintenance of healthy bones, normal muscle function and healthy teeth. Vitamin D also contributes to the normal absorption / utilization of calcium and phosphorus, to a normal level of calcium in the blood and to a normal function of the immune system.

Research has shown that vitamin D deficiency is responsible for at least 17 types of cancer, as well as heart disease, stroke, hypertension, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, depression, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, muscle weakness, muscle wasting, birth defects, periodontal disease, and more.

What forms of vitamin D are there?

Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) or vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) are offered as dietary supplements. Both are called "vitamin D", but their origin and metabolism are different.

Cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) is the natural form of vitamin D. When we refer to vitamin D in this text, we are always talking about vitamin D3.

By the way, vitamin D is actually not a real vitamin because – unlike real vitamins – the body can make it from cholesterol itself. This happens to the skin under the action of ultraviolet light.

If you let yourself be exposed to the sun for 30 minutes a day all over your body (without sunscreen!) the skin produces about 10,000 IU of cholecalciferol.

Vitamin K

Very few people know the true importance of vitamin K, especially vitamin K2.

Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting and the maintenance of healthy bones.

There are two different forms of vitamin K.

K1 and K2.

Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) is found in many green leafy vegetables such as spinach and cabbage or broccoli.

Vitamin K2 (menaquinone) is of bacterial origin and is found almost exclusively in certain animal foods or fermented foods.

There are different forms of vitamin K2.

MK-4 which is of animal origin and is excreted after about 8 hours.

MK-7, a clearly superior form of vitamin K2.

This is obtained from natural, microbial sources (from the Japanese plant food natto) and remains available in the blood for 72 hours.
