Micronutrients & recovery

Both HyD and Vitamin D3 suppress markers of innate immunity, but HyD causes a significantly more pronounced suppression of specific inflammatory markers (eotaxin, IL-12, MCP-1, MIP-1b) due to its rapid elevation of 25(OH)D levels.

Both forms of Vitamin D reduce inflammation, but HyD does so more effectively for certain markers. If managing inflammation is a priority, HyD may offer a faster or stronger anti-inflammatory effect than standard Vitamin D3.

Both types of vitamin D contributed to a decrease in five out of seven markers of innate immunity, significantly more pronounced with HyD for eotaxin, IL-12, MCP-1, and MIP-1 b.
