Glucosamine with collagen: important building blocks Glucosamine, an amino sugar, is a fundamental structural element of articular cartilage. Due to the usual everyday stresses, it is necessary for the cartilage to regenerate continuously. Collagen for connective tissue, ligaments and tendons Collagen has very interesting properties. It is a structuring component for the connective tissue and gives it elasticity, tautness and resistance to pressure and stretching. It can also be found in the ligaments and tendons that support the joints and connect the bones to the muscles. Higher bioavailability with delayed consumption of glucosamine and chondroitin The staggered consumption of the joint nutrients glucosamine and chondroitin increases bioavailability. Excerpt from a study published in 2006 by Jackson in the Official Journal of the American College of Rheumatism (ACR) was published: "If you look at the combinations of glucosamine and chondroitin, which have become increasingly topical over the past few years, additive effects of both components have recently been shown. Even better results can be expected if glucosamine and chondroitin are given at different times, since chondroitin reduces the absorption of glucosamine by up to 42% and thus has a negative effect." The detailed work on this is available meanwhile also published in 2010 in Osteoarthritis and Cartilage on pages 297 to 302. Glucosamine with collagen from Fairvital Glucosamine in the form of glucosamine hydrochloride with collagen hydrolyzate highly dosed gluten-free, lactose-free, fructose-free without silicon dioxide and magnesium stearate Combination tip:  Consume Chondroitin Plus because both products complement each other.

Vitamin K2, natural menaquinone MK7, bulk pack for 4 months Along with vitamin A, D and E, vitamin K belongs to the fat-soluble vitamins, although it’s not only one substance, but a group of different compounds with similar chemical structures and effects. The two most important forms of vitamin K are the natural forms vitamin K1 and vitamin K2. Vitamin K1 (phytomenadione, phylloquinone, phytonadione) is produced by plants and ingested with food. Vitamin K2 (menaquinone, MK4 – MK7) is partly ingested with food and also produced by bacteria of the intestinal flora. Vitamin K2 plays an important role for the body’s calcium balance. In the past, vitamin K has primarily been associated with blood coagulation, but over the last years more functions were discovered. Scientific studies revealed surprising information. Heart and vessels Many people rely on taking calcium supplements or drinking mineral water with high calcium content to make sure their bones stay healthy. If there´s an insufficient supply of vitamin K2 in the body, the calcium will be deposited in the blood vessels rather than being built into the bones. A sufficient supply of vitamin K2 insures the calcium will be transported to the bones and the teeth where it belongs.A study shows that vitamin K2 is not only able to prevent calcium deposition in the blood vessels, but also reverse existing calcium deposits. First results could be measured after a few weeks of vitamin K2 intake. Although these results are encouraging, more tests have to be carried out. Bone strength Bones are constantly built and broken down (bone resorption) and vitamin K2 plays a vital role in this process. It’s necessary to bind the calcium to osteocalcin. Osteocalcin is part of the non-collagen bone matrix and it can also be detected in the teeth. Regarding laboratory diagnostics, osteocalcin is an important parameter to assess the activity of bone regeneration. Cell health There are indications that vitamin K2 is able to repair damaged DNA in the mitochondria.Good reasons for vitamin K2 tablets by Fairvital natural menaquinone  can protect blood vessels from calcium accumulation promotes strong bones and healthy teethvegetarian and veganwithout magnesium stearate and silicom dioxidehighly dosed

Unfortunately not approved for delivery to the Netherlands! Vitamin K2 with vitamin D3 This sensibly combined dietary supplement from Fairvital contains high doses of vitamin K2 in the form of MK-7 and high doses of vitamin D3 as cholecalciferol. One capsule provides you with 200 µg of vitamin K2 and 10,000 IU (250 µg) of vitamin D3. As both of these fat-soluble vitamins can be stored by the body, taking one capsule every ten days is perfectly sufficient. Perfect partners in the body Vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 are a powerful team for strong bones. While vitamin D promotes the absorption of calcium from food, vitamin K2 ensures that it reaches the bones and does not deposit in the blood vessels. Different forms of vitamin K2 Vitamin K2 occurs naturally in 11 different forms: MK-4 to MK-14. MK-4 is mainly found in meat and can be produced in small quantities by the body from vitamin K1. The forms MK-5 to MK-9, on the other hand, are found in fermented foods. Of particular note here is the form MK-7, which is obtained from fermented soybeans (natto) and has interesting health properties. The menaquinone forms 10-14 are rather rare and therefore of lesser importance. Function of vitamin K2 in the body Vitamin K is involved in blood clotting. In the liver, it activates special enzymes that ensure that the blood clots when injured and closes the wound. K2 also plays an important role in bone mineralisation. It activates the protein osteocalcin, which is responsible for transporting calcium from the blood to the bones and incorporating it there. Function of vitamin D In addition to its role in calcium absorption and maintaining normal calcium levels in the blood, vitamin D is important for muscle function and the functioning of the immune system. The vitamin is also involved in cell division. Vitamin D supply Epidemiological studies show that large sections of the population have low vitamin D levels. In recent years, scientists have increasingly recognised the importance of an adequate supply of vitamin D3 for all age groups. Like vitamin K, vitamin D is fat-soluble. To optimise absorption, it is therefore recommended to consume this dietary supplement with healthy fats or oils as part of a meal. Vitamin K2 capsules with D3 from Fairvital sensible combination vitamin K2 MK-7 from natto for strong bones supports normal blood clotting boosts the immune system for muscle function Gluten-free, lactose-free, fructose-free No magnesium stearate or silicon dioxide Vitamin K contributes to: • normal blood clotting. • the maintenance of normal bones.
