TORQ dFND is a one-a-day tablet containing a potent concentration of Vitamin D3 and Zinc to support the normal functioning of the immune system. Vitamin D3 also helps to maintain normal bone and muscle function and Zinc, the maintenance of normal skin, hair & nails.Each TORQ dFND tablet contains 1000iu Vitamin D3 and 15.6mg Zinc at a potent 500% and 156% of daily reference values respectively. Both of these nutrients have been found to be deficient in the human body with Vitamin D being at lower levels in the winter months in particular and Zinc deficiency especially common in those following a vegetarian or vegan diet.There is good reason to take this supplement all year round especially if you spend extensive periods of time indoors or restrict the amount of sunshine to your skin during the summer months. Take 1 tablet per day, preferably with food and away from any caffeine containing foods/beverages.Both TORQ dFND and TORQ aTAC products were developed off the back of extensive research carried out at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic when we were highly motivated to learn more about immunity and how we might be able to help people to look after themselves.TORQ dFND has been formulated as a one-a-day solution, so that the i’s are dotted and t’s crossed with regard to your ongoing immune system support. In order to fully understand the benefits of taking this product, we discuss both Vitamin D3 and Zinc here:Vitamin DVitamin D is produced after UV rays from sunlight are absorbed by the skin. Vitamin D can also be consumed within foods, however, very few foods contain the vitamin with sufficient quantities. Once sent to the liver and kidneys, Vitamin D is converted into Vitamin D3, the active form of the Vitamin D which provides the physiological benefits. As the majority of daily Vitamin D requirements are provided from natural sunlight, a person’s lifestyle, ethnicity and geographical location can have significant impacts vitamin D production. Therefore, if you lead an indoor lifestyle, have darker skin (the evolutionary protection mechanism against UV rays) or reside in locations which typically have less hours of sunlight, then you may find yourself at risk of vitamin D deficiency. Of course, there are also seasonal variations, which impact the quantity, and strength of UV radiation throughout the year and there is no escaping the fact that we are all advised to protect our skin from sunlight to avoid the risk of skin cancer.ZincZinc is a mineral and one of the fundamental micronutrients responsible for correct biological function. It cannot be produced by the human body and therefore we must consume a varied diet to source it. Zinc regulates the innate immune system, the system responsible for immediate attack against infections such as the common cold, flu and viruses.Food that typically contains sufficient quantities of zinc are red meat and various sea foods, however those who choose to follow vegan or vegetarian diet may find that the food available to them may be lacking in the nutrient. For example, half a cup of green peas, and half a cup of kidney beans would deliver 1.4mg of Zinc, so with the guideline daily targets for zinc being 10-15mg per day, it’s easy to see how you could fall short.Due to the training environments of many athletes, such as gyms, changing rooms, swimming pools or even more natural, but dirty environments such as mountain bike or running trails, an athlete may find that they are exposed to pathogens which could affect immunity leading to an increased chance of becoming ill. As we discussed in relation to Vitamin D, for any athlete, unplanned time away from training due to illness is not only inconvenient, but it also disrupts training load and adaptation. Key Features: Supports Normal Immune Function, High Strength Formulation, 1000iu Vitamin D3 (500% NRV), 15mg Zinc (156% NRV), One-a-Day Tablet, ,180 or 360 Tablet Options,.Maintaining a healthy immune system is much more than simply taking supplements as and when you need them.
