Vitamin D in prevention of the coronavirus? (1)

These are 73 specialist doctors and six associations of French doctors who call on the entire population to take preventive vitamin D supplementation . Indeed, many scientific data show that it would help reduce the risk of contracting Covid-19.

Indeed, although it does not replace vaccination, vitamin D supplementation could help reduce the risk of contracting severe forms of COVID-19 . When a person is infected with the coronavirus, the virus attaches itself to a particular receptor: the ACEII. The role of ACEII is to degrade a peptide called angiotensin 2. The troublesome virus, angiotensin is found in too large quantities in the body and causes the organism's renin-angiotensin system to race.

This deregulation of the system is the source of the problems associated with Covid-19 : problems with the heart, lungs and testes, vascular disorders, etc. Vitamin D has the role of slowing down the renin-angiotensin system when it gets carried away and therefore balances the effect of the virus.

A person deficient in vitamin D will therefore have more problems due to the virus and will progress more quickly to a serious form of the disease.

The actions of vitamin D 

The role of vitmaine D in preventing osteoporosis and in fractures of the neck of the femur in the elderly is currently well established. However, the benefits of vitamin D extend far beyond skeletal health. This has been demonstrated by very fascinating clinical and epidemiological studies.

Vitamin D reduces mortality

Several study results have shown that its deficiency increases the risk of death from cancer, cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes. Remember that these pathologies are responsible for around 70% of deaths in our civilized countries.

Vitamin D and the immune system

Researchers have also proven that this vitamin is involved in the immune process by protecting the body from infections . Thus, deficient people suffer more frequently from colds and flu during the winter period. In addition to its immunostimulating action, vitamin D also has an immunomodulatory action , that is to say, regulating immune elements. This explains its favorable action in diseases with an inflammatory or autoimmune component.

Vitamin D and cancer

The researchers explain that in addition to helping prevent several forms of cancer, this vitamin could also slow the progression of the disease in people already affected.

Vitamin D and the heart

Another evidence: even a moderate vitamin D deficiency could increase the risk of cardiovascular disorders. It appears that people with deficiency are twice as affected by heart attacks, heart failure or stroke, compared to those with high vitamin D levels.

Vitamin D and memory

Other results show that men with lower vitamin D levels are the same ones whose intellectual capacities decline the most as they age. A team of researchers from the University of Los Angeles found that vitamin D and curcumin would be useful in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

Vitamin D and muscle tone

The favorable action of vitamin D on the osteoarticular system is coupled with an increase in muscle strength. A study carried out in a nursing home among seniors showed a 22% reduction in falls among residents supplemented with vitamin D.

The actions of vitamin K2

As for vitamin D, there are two forms of vitamin K . The Vitamin K1 is mostly found in green vegetables, certain vegetable oils (rapeseed or soy) and the yolk of the egg raw. It is involved in the phenomena of blood coagulation.

As for vitamin K2 , it is manufactured by our own body and more particularly by the intestinal flora provided that they are in good condition. It is nevertheless possible to find it in the diet in fish oils, in yogurt, in cheese, in milk and in the liver.

Vitamin K2: the guarantee of strong bones (2) and clean blood vessels 

Natural calcium intakes are normally only deposited in two places: bones and teeth. Unfortunately, with age, abnormal calcium deposits can appear in other tissues such as the inner lining of our arteries . This phenomenon is known as arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). This is because as we age, the body loses the ability to regulate the calcium balance. This then takes place in the wrong direction and the calcium leaves the bones ( osteoporosis ) to settle in the arteries ( arteriosclerosis ).

The vitamin K2 helps to regulate this balance by keeping calcium in bones rather than let it migrate to arteries. Better yet, the latest research indicates that vitamin K2 even helps reverse arterial calcification , making it the only currently known treatment for arteriosclerosis .

Vitamin K2: the anti-aging vitamin 

We have just explained that as we age, calcium deposits tend to accumulate in the soft and inadequate tissues of the body which then become "like stone". 

This non-physiological calcification could be involved in many diseases that affect the elderly. This is the case of kidney stones, of arthritis , cataract, lack of heart valves, bone fractures, skin wrinkled, of senility and of course of arteriosclerosis affecting the system vascular.

Restoring an optimal level of vitamin K2 helps protect against all these disorders. Several researchers therefore consider this vitamin to be one of the most important nutrients for slowing down aging.

The ideal solution: vitamins K2 and D3 in liposomal form

The Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 now exist in the liposomal form, the form that significantly potentiates their intestinal absorption and therefore their physiological effects.

It should be remembered that the liposomal encapsulation technique makes it possible to prevent acid attacks from the stomach and to deliver the product directly into the blood. From there, the fully intact active principle is then directly transferred to the heart of the cell, where it can be active!
