Osteoporosis.

Do you suffer from Osteoporosis? Lack of sunlight may be the cause. But recent studies have shown that there is another factor in the process of bringing Calcium into your bones, it turns out that we need to ingest foods rich in ferments, like organic yougurt, fermented organic cheese, also organic fermented pickles and sour croute. This foods contain the bacteria that helps our body turn Vitamin K1 into Vitamin K2. So no matter how much Calcium you take is not good for your bones with our sunlight and the Vitamin D and K. So start adding to your diet rich organic fermented foods. Watch a video called The Calcium Paradox all the info is there and talks about how, taking Calcium supplements with out the other ingredients can be even fatal and harmful for your body. Osteoporosis can be related to lack of exposure to sunlight and low vitamin D levels and absence of Vitamin K2 which is only found in fermented produce and this is key vitamin to help bring calcium into your bones. Our body needs the right ingredients to keep homeostasis in our body, means the balance to maintain life working properly. Lacking of the proper form of vitamin D affects the amount of calcium in our blood, muscles and bones. You may ingest calcium and vitamin D, but there is a process inside of body that needs to take place for this vitamin D to go into our blood stream and take calcium into the bones and muscles. When you don’t have enough calcium in bones or muscles, these weaken experiencing fractures and also muscle pain. We need to understand the physiology of vitamin D so we can learn how important it is the exposure to sunlight. To make it simple, when we eat our foods that contain Vitamin D we are taking Ergocalciferol Vitamin D2, for this Vitamin to be useful for your body, the Vitamin D goes into the skin (vitamin Choloecalciferol D3 provitamin). Then, if you expose your skin to Ultraviolet Light from the sun, this one turns into Pre vitamin D3, which turns (isomerizes) into Vitamin D3 and enters (translocates) to the blood stream or circulation. Then our liver converts this vitamins D2 and D3 into a different form of Vitamin D in a storage form, to be used as needed. There is much more to this physiological process and you can find more info but I found here a link to a nice drawing and labels that may help you to understand. Click here to see a figure of this physiological process. As you can see there are many things that our body does by itself better known as the Autonomous System but rich in fermented products diet and solar exposure are needed to maintain healthy bones. Our organs and glands will work according to what they sense in our body, if we are not giving our bodies the right nutrients and environment, then our body will start hurting in many ways. So get some sun and eat healthy, prevention is important to be healthy.
