DLuxPregnancy

Vitamin D is a vitamin and pro hormone that is synthesised by the body when our skin is exposed to UV light. Less than 10% of our supply comes from natural foods. As our bodies were developing, many thousands of years ago this was a simple and straight-forward process.

However, in the last hundred years we have been retreating more and more away from the sun. Modern life now dictates that we spend most of our daylight hours either indoors, covered up, under glass or protecting our neglected skin with sun creams. This means that the majority of us are deficient in vitamin D and that's not good.

Jan de Vries has joined with BetterYou to produce a delivery system that gets an optimum quantity directly into the blood supply. Those who are in particular need of supplementation are:

• Pregnant and breast-feeding mothers
• People with dark skin
• Infants and children under 5 (a vitamin D supplent is now compulsary for infants in Southern Ireland)
• The elderly and house-bound
• Children who play mainly indoors
• People wo work indoors
• Particularly those who live in Northern Hemisphere countries.

"Almost everyone in Europe gets insufficient vitamin D because the sun is not strong enough in winter to make any in the skin. People in Britain and Ireland have particularly low levels of the sunshine vitamin because of our cloudy summer climate. Taking a regular vitamin D supplement of at least 1000 IUs per day, preferably more, will restore an optimum level in the blood with a substantial improvement in health and reduction in risks of future disease," Oliver Gillie, director of Health Research Forum.

Vitamin D3 is a fat soluble vitamin, so we have developed DLuxPregnancy to be oil-based (coconut oil as a medium chain triglyceride), so enhancing it's absorption within the body. The oil is suspended in solution using sunflower lecithin ensuring a perfectly even distribution, from the first spray to the last.

By applying it directly into the mouth, ideally under the tongue, it is absorbed directly through the mucous membrane into the blood system rather than having to be processed by the digestive system and major organs. This ensures no loss during the absorption process. The solution has been microemulsified to ensure the particle size is optimal for absorption in this way.

Because our digestive efficiency is not always assured, particularly when we are unwell or out of sorts, DLuxPregnancy bypasses the digestive system offering the fastest way of absorbing the vitamin.
