Vitamin D research supports bone, immune, and cardiovascular health, and is linked to metabolic health
Many studies have shown vitamin D's positive effects on bone, immune and cardiovascular health, and physical mobility.
Analysis of a previously conducted randomized clinical trial involving older individuals receiving vitamin D supplementation found that those taking 800 IU per day for five months had better physical mobility due to vitamin D's benefits of supporting bone health.1
Vitamin D supplementation is also associated with supporting immune health and is beneficial for overall health and wellness.2,3
Magnesium: A must-have for vitamin D efficiency
Magnesium is an extremely versatile and abundant mineral found naturally in the body. It’s required for many enzymatic reactions and scores of biological functions. In addition, many enzymes contributing to the synthesis of carbohydrates and lipids require magnesium for their activity. But, not surprisingly, a large US national survey indicated that average magnesium intake is significantly below the current recommended dietary allowance.
That’s why magnesium is such a crucial ingredient in BeyonD3. The body depends on magnesium to convert Vitamin D into its active form within the body so that it can help with calcium absorption. Magnesium also helps Vitamin D bind to its target proteins, as well as helping the body metabolize Vitamin D.
Magnesium is good for your whole body, as it's involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body. It plays a critical role in the synthesis and metabolism of vitamin D7 and overall vitality.
Vitamin K2 supports bone and cardiovascular health
Among its benefits, menaquinone plays significant roles in bone and cardiovascular health as shown in studies in women. According to laboratory studies, Vitamin K2 is required for the activation of a series of proteins involved in calcium metabolism and its balance in the bones and soft tissues, including the arteries. It works with vitamin D to support bone and heart health. Here's how…
- Laboratory studies suggest Vitamin K2 is involved in the activation of a protein called osteocalcin. Osteocalcin is a calcium transport protein that is necessary for bone crystal formation. Vitamin K2 is required to activate osteocalcin; without this activation, osteocalcin is unable to perform its function.
MK-7 research supports bone health
Two studies looked at the effects of supplementation with menaquinone-7 (MK-7) and found that it can increase the activation of osteocalcin, a protein that supports calcium deposition in bone tissue.4
Another placebo-controlled trial investigated the effects of supplementation with menaquinone-7 on bone health in women. Results showed that taking the amount of MK-7 in BeyonD3 significantly improved vitamin K status and favorably affected bone strength and bone health.5
Other complementary minerals enhance benefits of vitamin D
Zinc and boron are important minerals. Over time, depletion can compromise good health, so it's important to supplement with these essential minerals.
