Vitamin D3 2.500 I.E. 15 ml

Vitamin D3

can only be produced under the influence of sunlight in the body. For our body to be able to develop vitamin D3 from the precursor of vitamin D, several steps are necessary. Sufficient sunlight is a key factor in this.

But how long and intense should we be exposed to sunlight, enough to preserve the precursor of vitamin D3.

Are there 10 minutes of sunshine per day enough?

The northerly we are and the more clouds there are between us and the sun, the lower the sunlight that reaches our skin.

And that is not enough.

"The phenomenon that critically ill patients have a low vitamin D status can be observed worldwide," says Ass. Prof. PDin Dr.in Karin Amrein of the Medical University of Graz summarizing there study. Therefore, the Graz study results have enormous potential in terms of the treatment of seriously ill adults and children. Karin Amrein sees vitamin D therapy as a great way to treat intensive care patients in addition to other therapies. (Source: Medunigraz.at)

Our tip:

Vitamin D regulates the calcium and phosphate metabolism. It supports the absorption of calcium and phosphate from the intestine. To optimally utilize calcium, the body needs vitamin K2.

For vitamin D therapy it is recommended to take vitamin K as well. Vitamin K2 MK7, which is obtained from fermented plant foods, has shown particularly good efficacy.
