Nature has endowed plants with amazing substances that protect them from the harmful effects of intense UV radiation from sunlight. These special plant compounds are found in high concentrations in the sun-facing cells of the plant. They neutralize the radiation and allow the sunlight-dependent processes of cell metabolism to be highly productive.
Humans can also benefit from these secondary plant compounds. Dr. Rath OPC™ contains some valuable phytonutrients, including the red-colored grape seed extract OPC. In the cells of the human body, this polyphenol becomes a powerful antagonist of free radicals, which are produced by UV radiation and wreak havoc on skin cells. In this case, effective skin protection is needed!
The ideal synergy partner is the sun hormone vitamin D3. It is produced by the skin cells when exposed to sunlight and plays an important role in skin regeneration, among many other metabolic functions. Sun protection and an optimal supply of vitamin D therefore belong together. Our formula Dr. Rath Vitamin D3™ + K2 provides the body’s cells with vitamin D in a highly bioavailable form for skin regeneration and calcium metabolism (bone health!).
When the skin needs to be protected with sunscreen on a long day in the sun, and the body’s own vitamin D production begins to falter, we can provide the necessary replenishment with Dr. Rath Vitamin D3™ + K2.
The combination of Dr. Rath OPC™ and Dr. Rath Vitamin D3™ + K2 provides effective sun protection from within. If you’re going on a summer vacation, spending a weekend in the garden, attending a music festival, or just spending a lot of time outdoors in the sun, you have two powerful allies in these two supplements. Both formulas are vegan, to spare animal suffering and for a more sustainable carbon footprint.
