The benefits of vitamin D are well known, such as its ability to regulate immune function and calcium absorption. Yet many don’t know that it is meant to work synergistically with vitamin K2.
Vitamin K2 is not commonly found in food aside from certain fermented items. Although our digestive bacteria can synthesize K2 from the conversion of K1 vitamin found in leafy green vegetables. For that conversion to occur you need to have a healthy gut and eat enough leafy green vegetables. Since many people do not meet those criteria, supplementation is often required.
D3/K2 helps:
• Immune Regulation
• Calcium absorption in the bones
• Prevent calcium accumulation in soft tissues
• Reduce the risk of osteoporosis
• Improve cardiovascular health
• Prevent deficiency associated with increased cancer risk
• Normal inflammatory response
• Muscle function
