Bandung, IDN Times – The spread of the COVID-19 virus is decreasing day by day, following vaccinations in various parts of Indonesia. One of the evidences that this virus has spread slowly can be seen from the occupancy rate of hospitals due to COVID-19 which continues to shrink.
This condition is certainly something that is expected by the Indonesian people, but it does not mean that we no longer need to try to maintain body immunity. In any condition, the condition of the body must still be a concern to avoid various diseases that have the potential to attack.
There are several things that can be done to maintain and increase the body’s immunity, including taking vitamins D3, E, and Astaxanthin. NahFor that, let’s find out what are the benefits of vitamin D3, viamin, and astaxanthin.
1. Vitamin D3
A number of literature states that vitamin D3 is the most natural form of vitamin D. For information, chemically, there are two active forms of vitamin D, namely vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol).
Vitamin D3 plays a role in regulating calcium levels in the body, thus maintaining the strength of bones and teeth.
Not only that, vitamin D3 is useful for preventing bone loss for women over the age of 30 years. This vitamin also has a role in the prevention of various respiratory infectious diseases, such as pulmonary tuberculosis and influenza.
Vitamin D3 can actually form naturally when the skin is exposed to direct sunlight. On the other hand, there are also a number of animal foods such as sea fish, eggs, milk and their products, beef liver, and cereals, which also contain vitamin D3.
However, there is nothing wrong with taking this vitamin regularly through several supplements on the market.

For this reason, Astaxanthin has a very good ability to increase the body’s immune response. This compound is also useful for protecting cells in the immune system from exposure to free radicals.
Astaxanthin can absorb into every cell in the body optimally, because of its lipophilic and hydrophilic molecular properties. One part of the Astaxanthin molecule protects fat-soluble cells and the other protects water-soluble cells.
