Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) – Vitamin D (calciferol) is a unique, fat-soluble nutrient that your body needs in order to function normally. It plays a crucial role in keeping your body strong and healthy and provides numerous health benefits. While the two most common types of vitamin D, D2 (ergocalciferol) and D3 (cholecalciferol), are both effectively absorbed into your blood stream, vitamin D3 is generally regarded as superior to vitamin D2 because it is the form that most closely resembles the one your body produces. Vitamin D3 is also more efficiently metabolized by your liver and 87% more usable to the human body.
Vitamin K2 (Menaquinone-7) – Also known as Menaquinone-7 or MK-7, Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays important roles in your body's normal calcium metabolism. It possesses antioxidant properties that help protect your cells from oxidative stress and support their overall health. An article from theInternational Journal of Molecular Sciencesindicated that vitamin K2 is absorbed by your body around 10 times more efficiently than vitamin K1.
Vitamin E – Vitamin E is an essential fat-soluble vitamin that possesses potent antioxidant properties that can protect your body from oxidative damage caused by harmful free radicals. We've included high-quality vitamin E (as alpha-TS or mixed tocopherols) in our premium Vitamin D3 + K2 supplement to help stabilize the formula and maximum shelf life and optimal nutrient absorption.
Organic Vegetable Glycerin – We usedorganic vegetable glycerin derived from vegetable oils in our premium Vitamin D3 + K2 tincture to help preserve the beneficial nutrients and retain maximum potency.
Organic Lemon Juice Powder – Carefully extracted from the peel of the lemon fruit (Citrus limonum), organic lemon juice powder possesses the fruit's natural invigorating properties and characteristic refreshing fragrance. That's why we chose dehydrated lemon juice as an ingredient in our Vitamin D3 + K2 formula.
Organic Lemon Oil – Organic lemon essential oil provides a potent, citrusy freshness, which is why we've included organic lemon oil that has been carefully cold-pressed from lemon peels in our premium Vitamin D3 + K2 tincture.
Utah Inland Sea Minerals – To naturally provide additional support for your body, our premium Vitamin D3 + K2 formula contains a natural mineral complex that has been carefully derived from concentrated seawater from the Great Salt Lake in Utah, USA. It consists of several high-quality trace minerals.
We've also included purified water and organic mushroom mycelium powder in our premium Vitamin D3 + K2 tincture to help retain maximum potency.
Why should you take vitamin D3 with vitamin K2?**
While it is possible to take vitamins D3 and K2 separately, supplementing with these vitamins together allows them to work synergistically to complement each other’s beneficial properties for supporting optimal health and overall well-being. More importantly, they also work together to optimize the delivery of calcium to your bones, instead of letting it accumulating in deposits in your arteries. When you consume calcium-rich foods without vitamin D or vitamin K, your body only absorbs 10-15% of your food's calcium content. However, supplementing with vitamins D and K can improve your body's calcium absorption rate to around 30-40%. Vitamins D3 and K2 work together to provide a two-fold effect: Vitamin D3 transports the calcium from your intestines to your blood, while vitamin K2 transports the calcium from your blood to your bones. This helps ensure optimal and efficient nutrient absorption, so that the vitamins go where your body needs them the most.
