The most important vitamins in autumn
In autumn, vitamin supplementation is crucial, as it is essential to prepare our bodies for the cold months and flu season.
What vitamins do we need in autumn? In which Panhellen products can you find them? You will find all important information in our article!
Vitamin A
Vitamin A plays an essential role in the renewal of epithelial cells, which is why it is one of the most important vitamins for our body. It has antioxidant properties, so it improves vision and promotes skin regeneration. Its deficiency is associated with many unpleasant symptoms, such as dry hair, cracked nails and dry skin.
It is recommended to take it all year round, but it is especially important in autumn, as the cold can easily dry out our skin, while the decrease in sunlight can really wear out our eyes.
Vitamin A can be found in spinach or eggs and many fruits. Of course, it is also worth taking in the form of a food supplement, so it is easier to ensure the recommended daily intake*.
*recommended daily intake may be different for men, women, young and old, so we recommend asking your doctor for advice
B vitamins
B vitamins are essential for the health and proper functioning of the nervous system, as well as the health of our hair, skin and nails. In addition, it is also important for the digestive system, as it promotes the functioning of the digestive organs and aids in detoxification. B vitamins also play a decisive role in the structure and functioning of muscles.
In autumn, it can be of great help in protecting our hair, skin and nails, especially in the increasingly cool and windy weather. We can also shed the kilos gained in the summer with them more easily, considering that they stimulate detoxification and enhance our digestion. And the best thing is that they will also help us build muscle during autumn training.
B vitamins are never found alone, but always together in individual foods and nutritional supplements. Since the B vitamins exert their effect together, it is recommended to take them at the same time, and their absorption is better than separately. That is why it is worth choosing a vitamin complex product. Panhellen's ULTRAVITAMIN and ULTRAVITAMIN PRO products also contain vitamins B1, B2, B6 and B12.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C has entered the public consciousness as an immune-boosting vitamin, which we should start taking in the fall in order to boost our immune system for the winter and ward off colds and flu season. It's true that we recommend taking it all year round, so if you've been neglecting it until now, make sure to include it in your daily routine in the autumn months.
Similar to vitamin A, vitamin C will also be of great help in protecting our skin in the moody autumn weather.
Among our products containing vitamins and minerals, you can find them in the Panhellen C-800 ULTRA , ULTRAVITAMIN and ULTRAVITAMIN PRO products.
Magnesium and calcium
Unfortunately, only a few people still know that calcium and magnesium complement each other, so in order for our body to be able to utilize them in the most perfect way, it is worth taking them together. Both are essential for athletes, regardless of the season.
Calcium is responsible for muscle contraction, while magnesium is responsible for muscle relaxation and helps in bone building. Taking calcium and magnesium together also promotes the functioning of skeletal muscles, blood vessels, the walls of internal organs and heart muscles. Ideally, there should be twice as much calcium in the body as magnesium. Panhellen CAL-MAG CITRATE provides this ratio; by using it, we can contribute to the adequate calcium and magnesium supply of our body.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is also a very important vitamin for our body, which we need all year round. Its main effect is to preserve the integrity of the bones, which occurs through the regulation of calcium homeostasis.
The good news is that you can enjoy it while basking in the sun's rays, and in autumn there is still a good chance of catching pleasant, sunny hours. Don't forget, however, that the sun can be strong even in autumn, and our skin's protective system can only resist harmful solar radiation for a short time, so make sure you don't stay in the sun for a long time, especially not between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m.
It is worth consuming in the form of a food supplement, since it is not possible to absorb the necessary amount from food.
