Hello, everyone. Registered Holistic Nutritionist with ITL Health, Meaghan Esser. I'm here to talk to you about the immune system, which is a very hot topic right now. So, very common question is, what vitamin should I take for a weak immune system?

Now, vitamin D has been very popular lately. There have been a lot of studies to show that it is very necessary for immune health. And at this time, we're still in our COVID-19 world pandemic. And a lot of these studies show how much vitamin D can help with positive COVID outcomes.

So, vitamin D is an essential immune nutrient. If you live far away from the equator. It's very common that you're deficient as we just can't seem to absorb enough vitamin D with our colder climates. And with the sun being so far away, the better part of the year.

So, vitamin D is very important. But what a lot of people don't know is that magnesium is equally important for the immune system because it activates vitamin D. So if you take vitamin D, but you don't have magnesium in your body, or you lack the magnesium that you need to utilize it. It will just sit in your liver and your kidneys, and it will go unused.

It's not until there's available magnesium in your body for activation of that vitamin D, that your body will be able to use it. So, this means you could be supplementing with vitamin D, and it might not be doing you any good at all. Without magnesium, it's the same as not supplementing with vitamin D at all.

And although vitamin D is a very common deficiency, it's estimated that 50 (50%) of Americans actually aren't deficient in vitamin D. They're just deficient in magnesium. So, they have that vitamin D sitting in their body waiting to be used, but they don't have enough magnesium to activate it.

Magnesium is a foundational mineral to our health and activation of vitamin D. It is one of the thousand processes, that is magnesium-dependent. So, bottom line if you have a weak immune system, although there are so many great things you can take.

Vitamin D and magnesium together is going to be one of your best bets. And as a bonus, magnesium is an immune modulator. It helps with targeting infections in the body. It also helps improve lung health, which is a huge concern with COVID-19. There are lots of studies to show how much magnesium can help.

So, we created vitamin D Plus, based on all of this information. There was a study done in Cordoba, Spain that showed very positive COVID outcomes with the exact same formula we use in our vitamin D plus. We have magnesium to activate the D. We have of course the D, we have some B12 for a boost to your immune system and some energy for your body.

And then, we also added some K2 in there as we know that K2 is a very important cofactor for directing D into the right spot for use in your body. This is an excellent product for all-around immune boost. It gives you everything you need in order to utilize that vitamin D that is so important for your immune system.

If you're interested in purchasing any of our products. If you're taking vitamin D, but you're not taking magnesium. We highly recommend our MAG365 Ionic Magnesium Citrate Powder. Or our PrizMAG Magnesium Bisglycinate line. Check your local health food store, or you can order directly online.
