The Sunshine Vitamin for Collagen Production and Cell Growth and Repair
Posted by Claudia Sa on
Collagen maintains skin strength and hydration
Vitamin D is key for skin health, aiding in immune defense and collagen production. It also helps regulate skin cell growth, which is important for maintaining a healthy skin barrier and promoting wound healing.
Vitamin D can aid in reducing inflammation, potentially helping conditions like psoriasis and eczema. Also, it supports the protective barrier against sun damage, harmful pathogens, and chemicals.
The amount of vitamin D required varies depending on factors like skin tone, age, and geographical location. The darker your skin tone, the more vitamin D you need - and this is of course even more true if you immigrate to a country where there is less sun than your country of origin.
What about Vitamin K2?
Vitamin K2 is crucial for blood coagulation and essential for bone (including teeth) and skin health.
It enhances skin elasticity and guards against elastin calcification, preventing wrinkles.
Additionally, Vitamin K2 may aid in the healing of bruises and dark circles, contributing to a more radiant complexion.
While vitamin D3 helps your body absorb more calcium, vitamin K2 helps your body transport it to your bones and teeth rather than letting it sit in your arteries and other soft tissues in your body.
Nature Provides Vitamin D3+K2 (MK-7) | with Organic Black Cumin Oil
We recommend Nature Provides Vitamin D3 because it is pure vitamin D in Black Seed Oil, an incredibly healing oil in and of itself. It says a lot about a company that uses such high-quality oil as a base, instead of the usual low-cost coconut oil.
Nature Provides Supplements uses Black Cumin Oil with no extra bulking agents, and it is bottled in Miron glass for extra protection. The taste of the oil is naturally spicy, but you only need a few drops. And you might even enjoy the taste - it has been used in ancient Middle Eastern cuisine since ancient times.
It can be taken internally or applied externally. It sinks into the skin quickly, and you can add a few drops of the Vitamin D oil to your morning serum, SPF, or cream.
Vitamin D is synthesized in the skin, so it makes sense to apply it directly to the skin.
Transdermal application is a means of absorbing nutrients that can be particularly useful for individuals with digestive challenges. This method may enhance the effectiveness of supplements that are not fully digested, thereby optimizing benefits and saving money and resources.
