If you often get colds or flu or feel depressed, then there could be a simple solution. A daily dose of Vitamin D3 together with probiotic supplements to provide Vitamin K could work marvels for your health. In fact, Vitamin D deficiency is extremely widespread in America, Canada, the UK, and the northern parts of Europe.

Not only will Vitamin D3 improve your resistance to the common cold: It also plays a part in cell health of all your tissues. This is why taking a good quality supplement is so important for your health. While enough sunlight will keep your levels of Vitamin D3 high, most people need to take supplements, especially in winter.

Probiotics increase the ability of your intestinal flora to produce Vitamin K, another important building block. Vitamins D and K work together synergistically to keep your bones strong an improve your well being. Only if you have adequate quantities of both will you get the full benefit of a supplement.

Vitamin D deficiency impacts all 36 organs of your body and is strongly associated with both Parkinsons disease and Alzheimers. A full list of the deficiency symptoms is eye-opening, as it includes some types of cancer and heart disease. It even has a strong association with multiple sclerosis.

Many people believe that they do not have a problem, a they take a multivitamin which includes enough Vitamin D to satisfy the RDA. Unfortunately, this may be the ineffective Vitamin D2, and the RDA is actually set far tool low. While it may prevent the short term effects, the RDA amount is insufficient to prevent long-term problems.

These two supplements should form the essential foundation for any supplementation program. Only if you are taking sufficient probiotics and Vitamin D3 can you hope to avoid many serious conditions. You can build on this basis to incorporate other essential nutrients in your quest for improved health and freedom from disease.
