30-60 Days Supply – 60 Vegetable Capsules
Time 4 Ultimate Vit-D is an advanced high strength Vitamin D formula providing a dose of up to 100μg of Vitamin D3 (4000iu). We have also added Magnesium, which is important for the conversion of Vitamin D3 to its active form and Vitamin K2, which helps to ensure Calcium absorption.
As Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin and is best absorbed when consumed with dietary fat, we have also included Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) to optimise absorption.
Time 4 Ultimate Vit-D is suitable for Vegans.
Time 4 Ultimate Vit-D – High Strength Vitamin D Formula: Contains 4 Active Ingredients
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, which plays an essential role in many functions of the body. There are two main types of Vitamin D, Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol or calciferol) and Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) which is contained in Time 4 Ultimate Vit-D. The science shows that D3 is more effective at raising blood levels of vitamin D and improving Vitamin D status than D2.
Vitamin K2 supplementation is generally recommended if you are taking a vitamin D supplement. This is because Vitamin K2 is responsible for depositing calcium at the right places in the body, i.e., in the bones and teeth. It also prevents the accumulation of calcium in places where it is not required and can be problematic, i.e., in the arteries and other soft tissue of the body.
Magnesium is an essential mineral found in all human tissues, especially bone. It is involved in over 300 enzyme reactions and over 600 cellular reactions. The body depends on magnesium to convert vitamin D into its active form. It also determines the number of vitamin D receptors, which influences the ability of vitamin D to bind and act on a cell, and is necessary for carrier proteins that transport vitamin D to target tissues in the blood, as well as helping the liver and the kidneys to metabolise vitamin D. Magnesium is a critical factor in making vitamin D bioavailable. Without magnesium present, vitamin D is stored in the body and not used.
Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) are included in the formula because Vitamin D is best absorbed when consumed with dietary fat. However, this can be difficult if, like many people, you take your supplements with your breakfast, which is predominately carbohydrate based. To help address this, we have also included a small amount of medium chain triglycerides (MCTs). They are a form of saturated fatty acid which are known to be digested and used to supply energy for activity more readily and completely than long-chain triacylglycerols (LCT). Therefore, they are less likely to be stored as body fat.
