What is Vitamin D? // The so-called sunshine vitam

What is Vitamin D? // The so-called sunshine vitamin is essential for good health. But it is not a vitamin; it is actually a hormone. A vitamin is a substance that we need but can’t make, we have to get it from our diet. Vitamin D is produced in our skin under the influence of UV light. It is altered in the liver to 25-hydroxyvitamin D – which is we measure when you have a blood test for vitamin D. The active form is made in the kidneys (calcitriol) and that does the business! Recommended daily intake is 600 units per day (800 units if you are older). Read more in the full fact sheet through the link in our bio!

Glutathione (GSH) // GSH is the most important ant

Glutathione (GSH) // GSH is the most important antioxidant in the human body. It’s a tripeptide made naturally in the body from the amino acids cysteine, glutamic acid and glycine. Most of the GSH we have is produced in the liver, but it’s abundant in cells throughout the body. In fact, our cells contain as much GSH as they do glucose or potassium.Read more in the full fact sheet through the link in our bio!

Coenzyme CoQ10 // CoQ10 is a naturally occurring molecule that’s found mainly in the mitochondria of our cells. It’s particularly abundant in the heart, liver, brain and muscles – tissues that use a lot of energy. CoQ10 is a component of the electron transport chain. This series of protein complexes in the inner mitochondrial membrane transforms food and oxygen into energy in the form of ATP. CoQ10 is a powerful antioxidant protecting your cells from free radicals. Read more in the full fact sheet through the link in our bio!

Creatine is naturally-occurring amino acid. It was

Creatine is naturally-occurring amino acid. It was first discovered in the 19th century and is made from three other amino acids – arginine, glycine, and methionine. The body stores energy as creatine phosphate. This produces adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Everything your body does from thinking to muscle contraction needs energy, and that ultimately comes from ATP. We need around 3 grams of creatine per day. Half of this comes from the diet and your body makes the other half, but consider supplementing in times of high demand. Read more in the full fact sheet through the link in our bio!
