Indispensable when losing weight
Scientists have shown that vitamin D plays an important role in supporting the loss of excess weight. Obese people on a low-calorie diet were divided into 3 groups. The first received a placebo, the second received vitamin d3 in the amount of 830 lU (20.75 μg) per day, and the third received 3,300 lU (82.5 μg) of vitamin D3 per day. After 6 months it was noticed a significant difference in losing excess kilograms and centimeters around the waist. The best results were achieved by people who supplemented vitamin D at a dose of 3,300 lU per day. They lost about 4 kilograms more than people taking placebo. According to research, when following a properly balanced slimming diet, better results can be achieved by additionally supporting the body with vitamin D. Numerous studies have also shown that people with a lower level of vitamin D in the body were characterized by a higher BMI (Body Mass index) and a higher percentage of body fat.

Important role of vitamin D3 in the prevention of diabetes
Vitamin D is there necessary for the proper functioning of pancreatic islet beta cells. There is a proven connection between vitamin D deficiency and impaired insulin secretion. A team of scientists from the Czech Republic examined the level of vitamin D in women with type 2 diabetes. The results were surprising. Vitamin D deficiency was higher in women with diabetes than in healthy womenconstituting the control group. Furthermore, it has been shown that enriching the diet with vitamin D3 in people with diabetes may contribute to improving the metabolic profileamong others to lower the level of bad LDL cholesterol.

Protecting muscle mass? YES
Muscle cells also need vitamin D, which supports the production of muscle-building proteins and inhibits their breakdown. They decided to check it, among others. scientists from Brazil who checked the influence of vitamin D on the preservation of muscle mass in postmenopausal womeni.e. during the period when greater muscle loss naturally occurs. Scientists examined a group of healthy women aged 50-65 who did not practice any sports. They wanted to check whether vitamin D3 supplemented at a dose of 1000 lU (25 ug) for 9 months helps maintain muscle mass and strength. l yes: in the group receiving placebo, muscle mass was reduced by an average of 7%, while in the group receiving vitamin D3 observed an increase in muscle strength by approximately 25%. Women who did not supplement vitamin D were also almost twice as likely to suffer from fractures. Subsequent studies have shown that vitamin D supplementation can reverse muscle atrophyi.e. muscle atrophy. The first results were visible just 3 months after enriching the diet with vitamin D, and the best effects were observed after 6-12 months of supplementation.

Your immune system
Our body needs vitamin D supplementation, especially on autumn and winter days, when skin synthesis practically does not occur. An American experiment showed that people who supplemented vitamin D with 50 μg/day had a 90% lower risk of colds and flu. According to the latest (2013) recommendations of European experts, daily vitamin D3 supplementation should be:
– Children and adolescents up to 18 years of age – 15-25 μg daily in September-April and in the remaining months when there is no adequate skin synthesis;
– Adults – 20-50 μg daily in September-April and in the remaining months if adequate skin synthesis is not ensured;
– People over 65 years of age – 20-50 μg daily throughout the year due to the deterioration of the effectiveness of skin synthesis of vitamin D with age; .
