Twinlab D3 + K2 Dots - Vitamin D3 and K2 Supplement, 1000 IU D3 + 90 mcg K2, Tangerine Flavor, 60 Tablets (3 Pack)

What are Twinlab D3 + K2 Dots?

Twinlab D3 + K2 Dots is a dietary supplement that combines vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and vitamin K2 (menaquinone) in a convenient tangerine-flavored tablet. Each tablet provides 1000 IU of vitamin D3 and 90 mcg of vitamin K2, a key synergy for bone health and the immune system. This pack of 3 bottles with 60 tablets provides a 180-day supply, ideal for continuous use.

Health Benefits

Vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 work together to support various bodily functions. According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), vitamin D contributes to:

• The normal absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus.
• The maintenance of normal blood calcium levels.
• The maintenance of normal bones.
• The normal functioning of the immune system.

For its part, vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting and the maintenance of normal bones. This combination promotes the proper deposition of calcium in bones and teeth, instead of accumulating in blood vessels.

What makes this combination special?

The synergy between vitamin D3 and K2 is essential for bone and cardiovascular health. While vitamin D3 enhances calcium absorption in the intestine, vitamin K2 activates proteins such as osteocalcin, which direct calcium to bones and teeth, and MGP (matrix Gla protein), which helps prevent arterial calcification. This combination not only strengthens bones but also helps maintain arterial flexibility.

Recommended dosage

It is recommended to take one tablet daily, preferably with a meal containing some fat, as vitamins D and K are fat-soluble and their absorption is improved in the presence of fats. Each tablet provides 1000 IU of vitamin D3 and 90 mcg of vitamin K2, meeting the recommended daily intakes for adults. Do not exceed the stated daily dose.

Who should take it?

This supplement is intended for adults who wish to maintain optimal bone health, support their immune system, or ensure an adequate intake of vitamin D and K, especially during periods of less sun exposure or in diets with a low intake of these nutrients. People with osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, or malabsorption disorders should consult their doctor before taking it.

Possible side effects

At recommended doses, vitamins D3 and K2 are safe. However, excessive consumption of vitamin D (above 4000 IU/day) can lead to hypercalcemia, while vitamin K2 presents a low risk of toxicity. People undergoing anticoagulant treatment (such as warfarin) should consult their doctor, as vitamin K can interfere with medication. As with any supplement, mild gastrointestinal discomfort may occur in sensitive individuals.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced diet. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of young children.
