Quarantine leaves us little room to go outdoors, consequently depriving us of the sunlight we take in daily and leaving us without the most important source of vitamin D, vital for keeping our bones, defenses and muscle strength strong.
A deficiency of this vitamin can cause osteopenia and in the worst case osteoporosis in adults and in young children it can cause growth retardation and classic signs and symptoms of rickets.
According to experts between 80% and 90% of vitamin D is absorbed directly from the sun through our skin. To avoid this deficiency, we should eat foods rich in vitamin D, but this only accounts for 20%. The ability to absorb vitamin D decreases with age, although all age groups are affected. Therefore, we should take some form of supplementation.
To avoid its deficit, from TRADES we offer you Engevita® Vegefit, a molasses yeast flake with a high vitamin D content created to help maintain strong and healthy bones and optimal defenses.
