Vitamin News: Vitamin D and Mental Health

There is a direct relationship between Vitamin D levels and mental ability. Studies show that low levels of Vitamin D are associated with poor cognitive performance while high levels of Vitamin D are linked to high scores on cognitive performance tests. Health experts now believe that the intake level of Vitamin D should be higher.

Vitamin D may support brain function by influencing brain proteins associated with learning, memory, motor control, and maternal and social behavior. It is also thought that Vitamin D supports increased levels of glutathione, which works as an antioxidant.

Vitamin D may also support mood. A study on Vitamin D in the form of Vitamin D3, inclusive of a group of people supplementing with 800 I.U. of Vitamin, D3, provided beneficial brain health benefits. Vitamin D3 is the more effective form of Vitamin D.

One serving of Res-Q Multi, our heart-healthy multivitamin complex, provides 800 I.U. of Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, a potent and natural form of Vitamin D3.

Vitamin D and Weight Loss

Researchers from The University of Minnesota reported that having a higher vitamin D level prior to going on a diet, produced a greater amount of weight loss. Increasing Vitamin D levels increased weight loss and body fat reduction under the skin of the belly. Findings from the new study were presented at The Endocrine Society’s Annual Meeting in June, 2009, in Washington D.C.

Intake of Vitamin D may be important if you are overweight. Low levels of circulating Vitamin D are observed in obesity. The reason for the low levels of circulating Vitamin D could be partly due to accumulation of Vitamin D inside fat cells. Furthermore, Vitamin D may promote a healthy body by slowing fat cell growth.V

Vitamin intake may be important when dieting. When dieting, caloric intake is drastically reduced which can consequently result in reduced vitamin intake and increased risk of vitamin deficiencies.

Res-Q Multi, our heart-health multivitamin, is intended to supplement the diet. Res-Q Multi provides a full spectrum of vitamins, minerals, and additional heart-health ingredients.

The Vitamin D found in Res-Q Multi is in the form of Vitamin D3, called cholecalciferol, the more biologically active, natural form of Vitamin D. Vitamin D3 is preferred due to its efficient ability to raise blood levels of Vitamin D.

Diabetics benefit from taking Vitamin C

Image from health-pictures.com


It is very important to maintain a healthy blood sugar level, rather than an elevated one. Elevated blood sugar can damage the blood vessels. Therefore, maintaining a healthy blood sugar level can help maintain healthy blood vessels.


Diabetics can benefit from Vitamin C intake. In a recent diabetic study, normalizing the blood sugar with insulin therapy was not enough to repair the damage that was done to the blood vessels. However, when Vitamin C was given in addition to the therapy, the blood vessels were better!

Since high-sugar foods like fruits contain Vitamin C, ensuring that diabetics receive enough Vitamin C daily to promote heart health can be challenging when maintaining a healthy blood sugar level with diet. Since elevated blood sugar and not getting enough Vitamin C can jeopardize the health of the arteries, getting enough Vitamin C and lowering the blood sugar may be one of the most important things that diabetics can do to help their arteries.

Res-Q products can help maintain arterial health. When used as part of the diet, Res-Q 105 Max is an all-natural supplement that can help maintain a healthy blood sugar level. Maintaining a healthy blood sugar level helps maintain healthy arteries. Both Res-Q CellPower, our antioxidant supplement, and Res-Q Multi, our heart-health multivitamin, contain Vitamin C. Res-Q CellPower provides an optimal blend of antioxidants that promote blood vessel health. Res-Q Multi provides complete vitamins, minerals, and heart-healthy ingredients for optimal health.

Why are we not getting enough Vitamin D from diet?

Studies show that Vitamin deficiencies are more common that you might think.

Milk, one of the most potent dietary sources of Vitamin D, does not give you enough Vitamin D, and is in the form of Vitamin D2, which is not as effective at maintaining Vitamin D levels as Vitamin D3, so you may have less Vitamin D in your bloodstream that you realize.

Since daily fish consumption is not recommended, due to the environmental issues with fish, getting enough Vitamin D3 to truly benefit your health could be more challenging than you think.

Many people limit the number of eggs that are consumed weekly or daily due to watching the cholesterol level, thus limiting the amount of nutrition that is consumed daily, such as Vitamin D3. Also, eggs have suboptimal levels of Vitamin D3 to begin with.

Many people may not get enough sunlight all year round in order for their body to produce enough Vitamin D3. In the winter months, we get less sunlight than we do in summer. The use of sunscreens has increased with the education of the health risks associated with UV rays. Blocking certain UV rays, also blocks the production of Vitamin D3. Could this be the reason that people are Vitamin D deficient?

Low levels of Vitamin D have been linked with health problems, thus supporting the need to ensure enough dietary intake of Vitamin D. Supplementing the diet with Vitamin D in the more biologically active form of Vitamin D3, as found in the Res-Q Multi heart-health multivitamin can help ensure enough Vitamin D intake and help maintain a healthy Vitamin D level.

Taking the recommended daily dose of Res-Q Multi provides 200% of the recommended daily value for Vitamin D3. Res-Q Multi is a heart-healthy multivitamin intended to supplement the diet. Taking Res-Q Multi helps ensure adequate daily vitamin intake in order to promote good health and wellness as well as optimal cardiovascular health.

The best kind of Vitamin D is found in Res-Q Multi

If you think you are getting enough Vitamin D in milk, think again. First of all, the amount of Vitamin D found in the average glass of milk is only a small fraction of the total minimum amount that you need every day in order to stay healthy. Secondly, the form of Vitamin D commonly added to our milk supply in the form of Vitamin D2, also known as ergocalciferol, is an inferior form. Vitamin D2, a form commonly found in some vitamin supplements, milk, and cereal is the synthetic form of the vitamin and is not as effective at maintaining blood levels of Vitamin D. Therefore, you may be getting even less than you think. Additionally, some health experts now feel that this synthetic form of the vitamin, which was approved by the FDA years ago to fortify milk and cereal in order to help combat rickets, does not work the same way as the Vitamin D that is synthesized naturally by our bodies. The new research suggests that Vitamin D in the form of Vitamin D2 really should not be used anymore. Researchers believe that this form of Vitamin D may actually block Vitamin D receptor activation and not provide the same health benefits that we associate with Vitamin D.

Vitamin D3, however, also known as cholecalciferol, is a more natural, desirable form of Vitamin D, the same form synthesized by our bodies from sunlight and the better of the two forms. Vitamin D3 is preferred over Vitamin D2, due to Vitamin D3’s ability to maintain blood levels of Vitamin D.

A multivitamin should contain Vitamin D in the form of Vitamin D3 in order to provide the required health benefits. Res-Q Multi, a heart-healthy multivitamin, contains Vitamin D in the form of Vitamin D3. Three caplets of Res-Q Multi provide 800 I.U. of Vitamin D3, which is 200% of the RDA.

What are Vitamins?

Res-Q Multi is a heart-healthy multivitamin supplement that contains a complete range of vitamins and minerals. Vitamins are essential.

Vitamin A is good for vision, immune system, plus growth and development. Vitamin A helps maintain a normal cell function called differentiation that is common to everyone.

Vitamin C is good for immune system, cholesterol health, arterial health, and wound healing. Vitamin C encourages collagen. Collagen is a protein that holds the cells in place, and promotes healthy, flexible, blood vessels.

Vitamin D is good for immune response, insulin secretion, stress response, cell function, and muscle function. The Vitamin D in Res-Q’s multivitamin supplement, Res-Q Multi, is in the form of the well-known Vitamin D3, called cholecalciferol.

Vitamin C and Heart Health

Our circulatory system consisting of the heart and blood vessels is the very reason that we are alive. One of the reasons that we watch our cholesterol number and diet is to help slow down the deposits on the artery wall that form over time blocking the arteries, and restricting blood flow. Although maintaining a healthy cholesterol level is important, vitamins are equally important to heart health. It would be a smart approach to do good things for our arteries before this damage occurs, and put the same amount of focus on prevention as we do with treatment.

Vitamin C can help to maintain arteries that are already normal. For example, arteries consist of collagen, and Vitamin C encourages collagen, a material that is important to the structure of the arteries. Vitamin C is also an antioxidant that helps maintain the health of the arteries by minimizing the oxidation of the cholesterol. Vitamin C is found in Res-Q CellPower, and Res-Q Multi. Res-Q CellPower is an antioxidant supplement that encourages healthy arteries. Res-Q Multi is a heart-healthy multivitamin supplement. Supplementing a healthy diet helps ensure that nutrient intake is met on a day to day basis.
