Vitamin D: Why You Don't Want to Be Deficient (But 90% of People Are)

Screen Shot 2023-12-08 at 6.25.16 pmAs today’s diets often lack the essential vitamins and nutrients our bodies need, we believe supplementation is sometimes necessary to optimize natural health to achieve the best results. Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that we must have in our system because of its powerful and often unknown health benefits. This is critical when most studies have found that about 90% of people are deficient in Vitamin D!

The Keystone of Bone Health

Vitamins D and K2 are essential to maintaining strong and healthy bones. Vitamin D is necessary to absorb dietary calcium, a foundation of bone health. It ensures calcium is adequately absorbed in the gut and deposited where needed in the bones. Without sufficient Vitamin D, our bones can become brittle and thin. Vitamin D also improves bone strength and supports healthy bone development, which is crucial for preventing osteoporosis, especially as we age.

Vitamin K2, on the other hand, works by activating osteocalcin, a protein produced by osteoblasts, our bone-forming cells. When activated, osteocalcin binds calcium and integrates it into the bone matrix, further strengthening bone density. This teamwork between D3 and K2 helps maintain bone mineralization and prevent fractures. This is why we ensure that Vitamin D is delivered with a small amount of Vitamin K2 in our mouth spray.

Supports Your Cardiovascular Wellness

The benefits of Vitamins D3 and K2 extend well beyond bone health, most notably in their support of cardiovascular wellness. Vitamin D helps ensure healthy immune and nervous system function, while Vitamin K maintains arterial health and supports cardiovascular functionality.

By activating matrix GLA protein (MGP), Vitamin K2 prevents calcium from depositing in vessel walls. It reduces the risk of blood vessel calcification – a critical factor in maintaining arterial flexibility and cardiovascular health.

Reduces Your Pain and Inflammation

Vitamin D is a potent modulator of inflammation and may play a role in shutting off chronic inflammatory responses. That is why a deficiency in Vitamin D has been associated with fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, back pain, and muscle weakness.  Vitamin D supplementation over 3 months helped to relieve 95% of low back sufferers and a 50% reduction in neuropathy pain in diabetics.

Increases Your Muscle Strength and Reaction Time

Vitamin D regulates calcium metabolism and calcium is responsible for muscle contraction. Supplementation of Vitamin D in subjects with deficient Vit D levels resulted in a 50% increase in muscle strength and reaction time. A similar change was seen in the ability to relax the muscle – in other words, the muscle responds quicker to the brain signal both to contract and relax.

Protects You Against Flu and Virus Complications (incl. Covid)

Many studies have shown that the higher your Vitamin D levels the lower your incidence of colds and flu and the lower the risk of severe complications. This was also shown to be true throughout Covid with people with high Vitamin D levels who were 14 times less likely to have severe or critical disease compared to those with low Vitamin D levels. For anyone who is still hesitant about catching the flu or viruses like Covid, taking this Vitamin D spray should provide you with some peace of mind.

Reduces Your Cancer Risk

Many studies have shown that low Vitamin D levels are associated with an increased incidence of many types of cancer, in particular breast cancer. Women with sufficient Vitamin D levels have been shown to have an 80% reduction in breast cancer risk. In addition, they found a 77%
reduction in all invasive breast cancers in women who received vitamin D supplementation versus those who did not supplement. High Vitamin D levels were associated with lower mortality from breast cancer.

How Much Vitamin D Should You Take?

First, we recommend that you assist your body in creating as much Vitamin D as you can safely and naturally through your lifestyle habits. We believe that adopting a comprehensive approach to supplementation with Vitamins D3 and K2 mouth spray is a wise strategy for anyone looking to make sure that your Vitamin D levels are at optimal levels for bone remineralization, immune system support, pain relief, greater strength, and improved cardiovascular health. Studies show that optimal Vit D levels can be achieved with 1000-2000 IU (international units) of Vit D per day per 20 kg of body weight or part thereof. One spray provides you with 10o0 IU.
