Why do you need vitamin D?

Researchers believe that a person living in the city has a deficiency of vitamin D. This explains the decrease in immunity and the development of many diseases. Calciferol has long been called a regulator of mineral metabolism, which improves the absorption of calcium and its delivery to cells. In women after menopause, hypovitaminosis D becomes one of the factors that accelerates the decrease in bone mineral density and the development of osteoporosis.

But for many years doctors have attributed other beneficial properties to this substance:

  • participates in immune reactions - receptors for calciferol are found on T and B lymphocytes, which are the main protective cells of the body;
  • helps maintain pregnancy - by regulating the immune response, suppresses the production of antibodies from the mother's body to the embryo, which is 50% foreign DNA;
  • has an anti-inflammatory effect - helps women with genital endometriosis reduce the activity of the inflammatory process;
  • protects the skin from premature aging and cancer - accelerates the restoration of epithelial DNA damaged by ultraviolet radiation and does not allow altered tumor cells to multiply;
  • reduces the risk of developing bowel cancer, especially in old age.

By improving the condition of the skin in adulthood, with the help of vitamin D, you can prevent baldness, the appearance of deep wrinkles and the development of basal cell carcinoma - a tumor of the surface layer of the epithelium.

  5. Rutin is an important participant in redox reactions.
  6. Calcium pantothenate – improves the condition of the epithelium.
  7. Lipoic acid – regulates the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates.
  8. Folic acid – participates in the formation of amino acids.
  9. Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant.
  10. Iron – ensures the transport of oxygen by blood cells.
  11. Copper – prevents the formation of osteoporosis and anemia, strengthens the vascular wall.
  12. Magnesium – has a positive effect on the cardiovascular system, stimulates the production of necessary hormones.
  13. Calcium is an important element in ensuring proper function of the musculoskeletal system and improves myocardial function.
  14. Zinc – strengthens immune activity, helps the absorption of retinol.
