Two of the cornerstones of a healthy life are strong bones and a robust immune system. As we age, maintaining these two systems becomes even more critical. But is there an effective way to support the body naturally?
Why does the immune system weaken?
Factors such as intense stress, unbalanced diet and low exposure to sunlight negatively affect the immune system. Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
Why Should We Pay Attention to Bone Health?
Bones not only hold our bodies together, but also store minerals such as calcium. In particular:
- Postmenopausal women,
- Individuals with vitamin D deficiency,
- People with a sedentary lifestyle
are at risk of bone loss (osteoporosis).
Taking calcium supplements alone is not enough. Calcium needs to be absorbed correctly and reach the bones.
Vitamin D3 and K2 team
Deficiencies in these vitamins are common and it can be difficult to get enough of both of these vital nutrients, especially since vitamin K2 is not found in commonly consumed foods. For this reason, it is often necessary to take supplements of both, and these vitamins work best when you take both together.
Vitamin D3 helps your body absorb more calcium, while vitamin K2 helps your body transport calcium to your bones and teeth instead of keeping it in your arteries and other soft tissues in your body.
