Vitamin D3 + K2 from ESN (Elite Sports Nutrients - Made in Germany)
combines vitamin D3 with all-trans vitamin K2 in one capsule. Micro-encapsulated all-trans vitamin K2 (MK-7) is a very stable, natural form of K2 and has a very high bioavailability. The combination in one capsule makes it even easier to take efficient amounts of these two important vitamins every day.
What is Vitamin D? Strictly speaking, vitamin D is not a vitamin, but a hormone precursor (prohormone). The actual active ingredient into which it must first be converted in the body corresponds to a hormone. Vitamin D takes on a variety of tasks in the body, including being important for the calcium balance and regulating the build-up and breakdown of bones. Vitamin D can also support the immune system and the body's defenses.
Who is vitamin D suitable for as a supplement? The human body can produce vitamin D through exposure to the sun on the skin and it is also ingested through food, although it should be noted that plant-based foods are mostly poor sources of vitamin D. Athletes have an increased need for vitamin D due to their vigorous physical activity. In addition, vitamin D3 is interesting for users who are not often outdoors, and at times of the year when the sun shines less.
Athletes who regularly take a vitamin D preparation as a dietary supplement can show an increased need for vitamin K2. By taking vitamin D, more calcium is absorbed in the intestine through food. At the same time, the body increasingly produces Gla proteins, which have the task of transporting calcium in the body.
However, the named Gla proteins can only be activated by vitamin K2. When activated, calcium is bound to the proteins and transported to the bones and teeth, where it is incorporated.
At the same time, vitamin K2 prevents calcium from being stored in those places where this is not desired. More specifically named in the arteries and other soft tissues of the body. Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting and contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.
