The WBC and D3 in the fight to live better

This morning, in the traditional “Coffee Tuesday” WBC President Mauricio Sulaimán, again made special emphasis on the importance of raising awareness about the importance of vitamin D, an essential nutrient to enhance physical performance, which acts directly on the nervous system, strengthening the immune system and directly influencing the absorption of calcium.

He explained that vitamin D, in addition to many other benefits, prevents the onset of some diseases including: diabetes, high blood pressure and autoimmune diseases; however, the lack of information about its benefits has affected health, as studies have shown that only 2% of the population fulfills the recommended daily amount.

The WBC, D3 and El Chopo laboratories carried out free 25-Hydroxy studies to all journalists and the boxing family to know their vitamin levels and the results were presented today.

All those who carried out the study were presented the medical report who informed them of their results, as well as treatment (free) for those who had low levels.

Committed to the health of boxers and those who make up the boxing family, we continue to carry this message, because health is the most valuable thing, which is why we add to our list of ambassadors Jackie Nava, Yamileth Mercado, David Picasso, Yulihan Luna the new interim champion Sebastian Fundora and his sister Gabriela, monarch of the women’s Latin title who received their D3 Kit.

Ana María Estrella, from D3, thanks the WBC for being part of this great awareness campaign, but also to give the message to all attendees that the best medicine is preventive medicine. She urged everyone to know their levels of vitamin D.
