What is the combination of Vitamin D3 and K2?

Discover Doctor's Best Natural — Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and Vitamin K2 (menaquinone) are two fat-soluble nutrients that work synergistically to support bone and cardiovascular health. Vitamin D3 contributes to the normal absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus, while Vitamin K2 contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. This combination is popular among those seeking comprehensive support for the skeletal system.

Health Benefits

According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), the following claims are authorized:

• Vitamin D contributes to the normal absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus.
• Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal blood calcium levels.
• Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.
• Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting and the maintenance of normal bones.

Additionally, Vitamin D3 contributes to the normal function of the immune system and the maintenance of normal teeth.

Synergy between Vitamin D3 and K2 for Bone Health

Vitamin D3 promotes intestinal calcium absorption, while Vitamin K2 activates proteins such as osteocalcin, which help fix calcium in the bone matrix. This cooperation is essential for maintaining bone density and strength. In addition, K2 contributes to vascular health by preventing arterial calcification.

Why choose the MK-7 form of Vitamin K2?

Vitamin K2 comes in two main forms: MK-4 and MK-7. The MK-7 form, as contained in this supplement, has a longer half-life in the body, allowing for sustained release and greater bioavailability. Doctor's Best uses MenaQ7, a plant-based source of Vitamin K2 obtained from fermented chickpeas, ensuring effective absorption.
