While we can obtain much of the vitamins & nutrients our bodies need simply by maintaining a healthy diet, the quality of the food available to us has deteriorated to the point where we need vitamins & supplements to achieve peak health. This is an unfortunate turn of events for our society and yet another good reason to buy organic and shop at local farmers’ markets.
Thankfully, even as food quality has declined, Americans are becoming more aware than perhaps ever before of the need to protect their health. From healthy weight loss to reducing artificial, sugar-based, or excessively fatty foods in daily diets to learning how to boost the immune system naturally, Americans see the value in taking great care of their bodies.
To help meet the growing demand for quality vitamins & supplements, Immune Solution® recently released the new Vitamins D3 & K2 in Pumpkin Seed & MCT Oils. This product is a hybrid combination of several vitamins & nutrients, delivering a powerful boost to several aspects of one’s health & wellbeing.
Vitamin D3: The Vitamin that Supports Bone Health and Boosts Immune Function
Without getting too far into the technical jargon, vitamin D3 is defined simply as a fat-soluble vitamin naturally present in some foods and which the human body also obtains from sunlight. Unfortunately, fewer and fewer foods contain enough pure vitamin D for Americans to get the necessary amounts of vitamin D their bodies need, just from their daily diet. And for those who live in cloudy regions, getting enough vitamin D from sunlight can also be a challenge.
This is, in part, why Immune Solution® created its own vitamin D3 formula, a proprietary blend of vitamin D3 with vitamin K2, mixed into healthful pumpkin seed & MCT oils for maximum solubility in the body.
Vitamin D3 has many benefits. It promotes calcium absorption in the gut. It helps the human body maintain adequate calcium & phosphate concentrations, enabling normal bone mineralization, function, and health. Vitamin D3 also helps prevent the involuntary contraction of muscles that lead to cramps & spasms. This vitamin is also needed for bone growth. When people do not ensure they are getting sufficient vitamin D3, their bones can become thin, brittle, or misshapen. Getting sufficient vitamin D3 through proper diet & supplementation prevents rickets (bone distortion) in children and bone-related health issues (like osteoporosis) in adults.
While a vitamin or supplement should never be used as a sole replacement for a healthy diet rich in fruits & vegetables, Immune Solution’s Vitamins D3 & K2 in Pumpkin Seed & MCT Oils is an excellent solution for ensuring one is getting enough vitamin D3.
Vitamin K2: The Vitamin that Promotes Skin Health, Bone Metabolism, and Healthy Blood Clotting
Vitamin K help the human body form blood clots (blood clots are a mass that forms when blood platelets, proteins, and cells stick together). Blood clotting is needed to prevent bleeding when one experiences a cut, wound, scrape, abrasion, or other injury involving bleeding. Both types of vitamin K (K1 & K2) ensure sufficient blood clotting, but the K2 version of the vitamin in particular also promotes heart health, supports strong bones, and may have some anticancer properties.
Vitamin K2 is fat-soluble and can be found in green leafy vegetables, broccoli, liver, and vegetable oils. Fewer and fewer foods contain sufficient vitamin K2. While vitamin K2 is also made by bacteria that both live in the large intestine and are found in many foods, not getting enough vitamin K2 can lead to bleeding, bruising, and other health problems.
Again, more reason why Immune Solution® saw the need to create its own vitamin K2 formula, a proprietary blend of vitamin K2 with vitamin D3, mixed into healthful pumpkin seed & MCT oils for maximum solubility in the body.
Immune Solution’s Vitamins D3 & K2 in Pumpkin Seed & MCT Oils is an excellent all-natural health solution for ensuring one gets enough vitamin K2.
MCT Oils: What Your Body Needs for Energy and Fat Burning
MCT stands for Medium Chain Triglycerides. The credible resource, WebMD, defined these essential nutrients as such: “Medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) are partially man-made fats. The name refers to the way the carbon atoms are arranged in their chemical structure. Usual dietary fats, by comparison, are long-chain triglycerides. People use MCTs as medicine for involuntary weight loss, obesity, seizures, athletic performance, and other conditions. MCTs are a fat source for patients who cannot tolerate other types of fat. These fats might also improve weight loss because the body uses them in a different way to other types of fats.”
When delivered to the body in an oil format, MCTs can provide an energy boost, support a healthy metabolism, boost the gut microbiome, and assist in mitochondrial function (basic cellular function necessary for a healthy body).
Additional Benefits from Immune Solution’s Vitamins D3 & K2 in Pumpkin Seed & MCT Oils
Here is a list of the potential benefits many of our customers have experienced from taking Immune Solution’s Vitamins D3 & K2 in Pumpkin Seed & MCT Oils:
- Proper Regulation of Calcium & Phosphorus Balance

And last but not least, Immune Solution’s Vitamins D3 & K2 can act as a powerful boost to the body’s immune system.
