Vitamin D3 has multiple roles in the body, helping to:

• Maintain the health of bones and teeth by promoting calcium absorption.
• Support the health of the immune system, brain, and nervous system.
• Regulate insulin levels and aid diabetes management.
• Support lung function and cardiovascular health.
• Influence the expression of genes involved in cancer development.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant for its ability to fight oxidative stress that damages cells and slows/prevents disorders like:

• Heart disease;
• Diabetes;
• Alzheimer’s disease; and
• Cancer.

The same effects are believed to slow the aging process when applied to the skin in a topical ointment or cream.

Vitamin K2 can be further divided into several different subtypes, the most important ones being MK-4 and MK-7. MK-4 mainly helps to prevent bone fractures. MK7 plays a critical role in directing Calcium to the right places, such as, bones, joints and teeth, but prevents the Calcium from entering blood vessels which could cause heart attacks or strokes if it turns into plagues when being oxidized. Other benefits:

• Reduced risk of heart disease by blocking calcium going into blood vessels;
• Plays an essential role in bone metabolism;
• Prevent osteoporosis and fractures by directing calcium into joints & bones;
• Play a critical role in dental health by directing calcium to teeth;
• Improve survival in patients with liver cancer; and
• Lower risk of advanced prostate cancer.

Astaxanthin
(Fat-soluble)

Astaxanthin is one of the most powerful antioxidant available in nature:

• Vibrant, youthful-looking skin and reduced dryness
• Support for a stronger and more protective immune system

Glycine is an amino acid that has many functions and benefits:

• a building block for proteins, especially collagen found in skin, ligaments, muscles, bones, and cartilage;
• helps regulate nerve impulses in the central nervous system, in the spinal cord, retina, and the control center of the brain;
• binds with toxic substances, e.g. Glyphosate (Round-Up), and aid in their excretion from the body;
• to improve sleep, enhance memory, aid in the treatment of schizophrenia; and
• to reduce brain damage following a stroke, treat an enlarged prostate, heal serious leg ulcers, and improve insulin sensitivity in people with diabetes or prediabetes.

  We can obtain glycine from high-protein foods such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy, beans, cereals, and pasta.

L-Lysine is an amino acid having the benefits:

• Helping the body absorb calcium, iron, and zinc;
• Promoting collagen growth;
• Lp(a) inhibitor;
• Helping produce enzymes, antibodies, and hormones; and
• Supporting the immune system.

 L-Proline is extremely important for these features:

• proper functioning of joints and tendons;
• maintain and strengthen heart muscles;
• found in cartilage for maintaining youthful skin as well as repair of muscle, connective tissue, and skin damage;
• lower the Lp(a) buildup of arterial deposits (plagues) and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease; and
• help your body build collagen, which is a primary structural tissue in connective tissue.

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is found in most cells in the body. CoQ10 and the reduced version, Ubiquinol, helps:

• support cellular energy production in the mitochondria, such as the heart and brain; and
• to replenish CoQ10 levels in the body reduced by some cholesterol-lowering statin drugs.

Moderate amounts of CoQ10 are found in foods. CoQ10 levels decrease with age and some supplementing may help to restore it.
