Vitamin D3

Liposomal Vitamin D3 with K2 for ultimate absorption.

Most of us do not get enough Vitamin D3 from the sun. The wide-reaching benefits of having adequate Vitamin D3 include:

• Helps balance moods
• May help reduce pain
• Promotes heart and brain health
• Supports better energy to fully enjoy your favorite activities.

Vitamin D3 Deficiency is a Silent Epidemic
Experts estimate that up to 90% of Americans are Vitamin D3 deficient. More conservative estimates are still above 50% [3]. Here are some symptoms to watch out for [4].

• Feeling "blue" or irritable
• Often fatigued, weak, tired or sick
• Weak bones
• Cramps
• Skin problems
• Sweaty head

The vast majority of our society deficient [1] and it underlies a wide range of major health challenges. [2] If you fall into any of the following categories, you're at very high risk of Vitamin D3 deficiency [5],[6],[7],[8],[9],[10],[11],[12],[13],[14].

• Over 40 years old
• Overweight
• Blood sugar issues
• Spend most of your time indoors
• Live in a northern latitude
• Have darker skin
• Have stomach issues that prevent nutrient absorption
• Don't always eat nutrient-dense foods
• Vegetarian or Vegan
• Have regular stress.

More Benefits of Absorbing Adequate Vitamin D3

Support Heart Health Your heart has Vitamin D3 receptors - research shows high levels of Vitamin D3 helps keep your heart strong and healthy. A study demonstrated that those with low Vitamin D3 levels are at higher risk for heart disease. [24]

Protect Brain Cells Vitamin D3 helps support brain health and reduces buildup of beta amyloid plaque - two greatest factors for cognitive decline (brain fog, memory loss). A study found a definite link between low D3 levels and cognitive decline among older adults. [18].

Fewer Infections and Increased Overall Health Vitamin D3 helps ward off illness on all levels - antiviral [19], antioxidant and helps your immune system to function at its best. [20]

Healthy Cellular Function Promotes healthy new cell growth and aids mutated cells to destruct. Ensures all cells can function in balance. Studies have shown it promotes healthy cell differentiation in the breasts, ovaries, prostate, pancreas, lungs and skin. [21]

Enhance Detoxification Supports your natural detoxification [22]. Promotes more energy and vitality, and radiant healthy skin [23].

Aids DNA Repair and Other Metabolic Processes Switches on, up to 291 genes that control your metabolic processes. One study showed that this aids DNA repair, supports the immune system and eases the aging process. [25]

Balanced Moods People with low Vitamin D3 levels (especially those over the age of 40) very often suffer from imbalanced moods [17]. If you consistently feel unmotivated, sad and low, Vitamin D3 offers dramatic benefits.

Relieve Aches and Pain If you suffer from pain - mild, moderate or severe - you may find relief by raising your Vitamin D3 levels. Studies have shown that the lower your Vitamin D3 levels, the more likely you are to have backaches [26].

Liposomal Vitamin D3 with K3 is

Up to 20 TIMES more absorbable than most others [11].

Vitamin D3 is surrounded with liposomes - a layer of fat that is very similar to your own cell walls. The liposomes surround and protect vitamin D3 from acid in your stomach for safe passage through your digestive system (fully intact) into your bloodstream, then finally into your cells - totally unharmed.

Ensures that you receive all the Vitamin D3 you need to combat aches and pains, ward off sickness, feel happy and energized, and support every cell in your body.

Liposomal Vitamin D3 with K3 is the purest, most bioavailable form of D3.

If you're currently taking vitamin D and your urine is bright yellow, you're not absorbing the vitamin - it's going straight through you, failing to deliver any benefits you need.

Fragile nutrients have to pass through harsh digestion that disintegrates them. And even if some D3 makes it through to your intestine, it has no effect unless it's absorbed into your bloodstream.

There may be only trace amounts of vitamin D3 that gets into your bloodstream.

You may be flushing your nutrients - and money - right down the toilet. The absolute best way to get the most out of essential Vitamin D3 is with Vitamin K2 AND Liposomal Technology (see Product Overview tab).

Don't Take Vitamin D3 Without Vitamin K

Vitamins D and K Work as a team, in synergy - the benefits of both taken together are dramatically enhanced. Research shows that Vitamin D3 actually increases your body's demand for Vitamin K. It's essential to take them together [27].

Vitamin D3 gets calcium into your blood and Vitamin K sends it to the bones.

Taking Vitamin D3 without Vitamin K could actually be harmful - Vitamin D3 alone does not fully control where the calcium in your body ends up.

When there is no Vitamin K2 to send calcium to your bones, the calcium settles into your soft tissues, and this is associated with vascular calcification and kidney stones.

Taking Vitamin K2 with Vitamin D3 allows calcium to bind with your bones, where it's needed, and takes calcium away from your heart, kidney and arteries where it can cause serious problems like vascular calcification and kidney stones.

Vitamin K2 has proven beneficial in the prevention and treatment of bone loss, cardiovascular disease and kidney stones [28] [29].

Scientists used to believe that calcification was an irreversible and inevitable result of aging. But now, research shows that it's the most potent inhibitor of vascular calcification ever discovered [30].

Not all forms of Vitamin K2 are the same. MK-7 is by far the most bioactive, absorbable, and effective form of Vitamin K2.

MK-7 has a significantly longer half-life, meaning it has more time to be absorbed and used by your body. Liposomal Vitamin D3 with K2 features an exclusive, patented form of MK-7 with unprecedented bioavailability and efficacy. It's clinically proven to activate the proteins necessary for maintaining optimal bone health and heart health [31]. A three-year study showed this patented MK-7 combined with Vitamin D3, supported bone health in post-menopausal women, while increasing bone mineral density [32].

A double-blind, randomized clinical trial conducted with the same study group found that this patented form of MK-7 is remarkably effective at reducing age-related stiffening of arteries and increasing vascular elasticity [33].

There simply isn't another product available that combines optimal-quality Vitamin D3 with clinically validated Vitamin MK7 and liposomal technology.

Vitamin D3 Deficiency Is Dangerous

A study conducted by the world's top Vitamin D3 researchers showed that D3 deficiency raises your risk of developing serious health conditions [15] because it's critical to ensure your body works properly.

Vitamin D3 deficiency can wreak havoc on all of the following:

• Bone and muscle health


• Cognitive function


• Regulates calcium in your blood


• Keeps bones strong


• Respiratory function


• Immune function


• Hearing and vision


• Digestion


• Blood pressure and circulation


• Metabolism


• Pancreatic function


• Heart health

Our stressful, polluted and nutrient-depleted world where we're taught to be afraid of the sun - a primary source of Vitamin D3 - all contribute to Vitamin D3 deficiency.

Go outside and soak up the sun in moderation, for your health. But if you live any further north than Atlanta, Georgia, the sun is just not strong enough for most of the year, for your body to manufacture Vitamin D3.

Fortified foods do not give you anywhere near enough Vitamin D3 either. The contain small amounts of Vitamin D3 in an inferior, hard-to-absorb form.

Reviews

"I used to feel tired and weak all the time, no matter how much sleep I got. Nothing seemed to help, until I had my Vitamin D3 levels tested and started using this product. I finally have all the energy I need to get through the day, and I couldn't be happier about it!" ~ Dana S, Chicago, IL

"After taking this Vitamin D3 for four months, my mood has improved dramatically. I've struggled with low mood for a long time (sadness, anxiety, mood swings), but I'm already having fewer episodes and feeling lighter than I have in years." ~ Erica B, Tampa, FL

"My skin is so much clearer and healthier since I started taking this Vitamin D3 with MK-7. It used to be splotchy and dry, and I hated how it looked and felt. My doctor said I should check for Vitamin D3 deficiency, and I found this product soon after. It's great to have such healthy skin again...thank you!" ~ Veronica R, San Diego, CA

"I tried this product when I was sick of being sick all the time. It seemed like I'd catch every illness, on the plane, in the classroom where I teach, from friends and family members. It was like I was sick more often than I was healthy and normal. Little did I know that I was very deficient in Vitamin D3, because now my immune system feels great and I haven't gotten sick in almost 9 months." ~ Nancy C, Woodbridge, VA

"PuraTHRIVE's product helped me get rid of the constant discomfort and tiredness I was always experiencing. I still get tired after a long day or if I haven't slept that much, but now it's normal tiredness. I wake up feeling rested and great, and my joints just don't hurt like they used to. Even my old back injury doesn't flare up nearly as often. Definitely going to keep using this Vitamin D3!" ~ Raquel C, Provo, UT
