D3-K2 5000 Overview
- Vitamin D has long been known to assist calcium absorption, it is vitamin K, through its carboxylation of
osteocalcin, which guides this calcium to bones and prevents their absorption into organs, joint spaces and arteries. - Vitamin K occurs in two main forms: K1 (phylloquinone), derived from foods such as green leafy vegetables and K2 (menaquinone), which is a group of related compounds differentiated by their side chains.
- Numerous studies have shown that vitamin K2 as MK-7 is the more bioavailable form of the nutrient 7 and more powerfully influences bone building than K1.
D3-K2 5000 includes 45 mcg of MenaQ7® PRO and 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 per capsule for optimal absorption and use by the body.
Vitamin D3 and K2 can help promote bone health and maintain healthy cardiometabolic function.
- Vitamin K is essential for the proper utilization of calcium by osteocalcin protein activation.
- Helps to bind newly absorbed calcium to the mineral matrix in bone.
- Vitamin K has been found to help maintain bone mineral density by decreasing the activity of osteoclasts that breaks down the bone matrix.
- Provides critical cardiovascular protection by helping to activate matrix Gla protein (MGP), an inhibitor of circulatory calcification.
- Thus, vitamin K and vitamin D not only share similar qualities, but they also act synergistically within the body.
- Building and maintaining healthy bones requires a number of key nutrients including vitamin K, for the proper binding of calcium to the bone matrix.
