The role that vitamin D could play in the fight against Covid-19 is yet to be demonstrated while its benefits for general health are undoubted, especially for women (essential for the absorption of calcium and therefore for women, who are more at risk of osteoporosis). It also has a role in boosting the immune system and this is what makes it invaluable at this time of year.
In fact, vitamin D is normally synthesized by our body thanks to the absorption of the sun's rays, in winter we tend to stay indoors more and reaching a good quantity of this vitamin only with food is very difficult.
Among the thousands of Vitamin D supplements on the market, I chose this one from Braineffect and I'll explain why:
- Braineffect is an excellent German brand, discovered recently but in my opinion they make excellent supplements
- Contains Vitamin K which allows vitamin D to be absorbed better and more completely
- Contains MCT oil . Vitamin D is in fact a fat-soluble vitamin, it needs a fat component to be absorbed. Any better choice than mCT oil?
- 1 drop is equivalent to 500 times the daily vitamin D requirement for an average adult
If you want to take a look, you can find it here together with the other excellent products of this German brand
And do you integrate vitamin D? Did you know its benefits?
