If you are still under the impression that Vitamin D is mostly an important nutrient for maintaining healthy bones, you may find it surprising that it is so important for almost every aspect of our health. Vitamin D is regarded as an extremely important health-sustaining factor because apart from being a Vitamin it works as a hormone which can influence thousands of different human genes and cells. It regulates more genes and bodily functions than any other hormone yet discovered! Unfortunately, in any cold or cloudy country, such as England, almost every person may be deficient in Vitamin D. Recent studies suggest that maintaining our Vitamin D levels at around 50ng/ml to 80ng/ml may have incredible health benefits relating to fat metabolism, immunity, viral & bacterial infections, respiratory health, bone health, cardio-vascular health, blood glucose levels and both types of diabetes, hormonal balance, athletic performance, skin health, mood, joint health, ageing, migraines, sleep, and many other aspects of health. Vitamin K is a group of fat-soluble vitamins that the human body requires for the synthesis of certain proteins needed for blood coagulation. Without Vitamin K, blood coagulation is seriously impaired, and uncontrolled bleeding occurs. Vitamin K2 improves absorption of Vitamin D and prevents dangerous calcification of soft tissues and organs found in the human body. Unlike the other fat-soluble nutrients (vitamins A, D and E), Vitamin K is not stored in the body, so it must be consumed daily. Even if we have sufficient Vitamin intake to prevent bleeding disorders, we may have insufficient Vitamin K intake to prevent various degenerative health problems such as calcification (arterial calcification, pineal gland calcification, etc.) and osteoporosis.
