Vitamin E is considered a true fountain of youth. As a powerful antioxidant, it slows down the aging process, protects the heart and arteries, increases fertility and strengthens the immune system.

At first glance, arteriosclerosis and osteoporosis appear unrelated yet both conditions share key similarities. They become more common with age and develop gradually over decades. Often they remain unnoticed until a serious event occurs such as a heart attack or bone fracture. While their symptoms and effects differ recent research reveals a surprising link between the two through vitamin K2.

Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a key role in the formation of coagulation factors. The vital substance is also involved in bone metabolism and regulates cell growth. A lack of vitamin K can lead, among other things, to an increased tendency to bleed. To a certain extent, the body can produce the vitamin itself, but an intake via food and/or food supplements is essential to meet the needs.

Vitamins and minerals are the basis for our health. A deficiency can lead to a wide variety of complaints.

The well-known doctor Paracelsus already knew that death was in the gut. 'The healthy intestine is the root of all health,' said Hippocrates, who also made a name for himself in medicine. Two quotes that show how important the intestine is for human health. But our current eating habits do not help the organ function optimally. Probiotics can help regulate the intestinal milieu and thus have a positive effect on intestinal health and on the general state of health.

While the probiotics have long since entered the consciousness of people and for many belong to a healthy and balanced diet, prebiotics are still largely unknown. Unjustly, they play an equally important role in a healthy intestinal flora - a key element for health, vitality and well-being.

Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, performs numerous metabolic functions in the human body. It contributes to healthy skin, has a positive effect on blood lipid levels, and influences mood. [[C020]] [[C021]] [[C022]]

Folic acid plays an exceptionally important role in the human body. This essential B vitamin helps the body build and repair cells. It is required for metabolism processes involved in cell division, which occurs daily throughout life. Healthy cell division and proper cell function are crucial to prevent diseases.
