Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is a vitamin which functions as a prohormone. It may be synthesised from provitamin D in the dermis and epidermis. However, this process requires adequate exposure of the skin to UVB-radiation. Due to our current lifestyle, exposure to sun rays is insufficient, which is usually the cause of common vitamin D3 deficiency.
Vitamin D3 is critical to normal bone mineralisation by maintaining calcium-phosphate balance. Vitamin D3 is needed for optimal absorption of calcium which is an element that is an essential component of bones. What is more, by binding to its receptors (VDR), it stimulates the activity of osteoblasts, preventing the development of rickets and osteoporosis.
Vitamin D3 has neuro- and cardioprotective properties. By increasing levels of glutathione, a potent substance in the intracellular antioxidant system, vitamin D3 helps detoxify the body and protect it from harmful waste products of oxidation. This vitamin is also necessary for normal functioning of the cardiovascular system – it may reduce the incidence of hypertension.
Vitamin D3 boosts immunity and has anti-inflammatory properties. Vitamin D receptors are located in immune cells – neutrophils and T and B lymphocytes. Vitamin D3 is reported to be helpful in autoimmune diseases, among others, psoriasis.
According to clinical studies, vitamin K2 reduces the frequency of bone fractures. It is because it regulates osteocalcins and proteins critical to calcium transport to bones. In the event of vitamin K2 deficiency, elevated levels of calcium in the body caused by vitamin D3 may lead to the accumulation of this element in arterial walls. This may result in their calcification and consequently the development of cardiovascular diseases.
