Vitamin K/D - 120 capsules

A few facts about vitamin K/D

Vitamin D is known as the "sunshine vitamin", because the body can only produce it through direct contact with sunlight. Pure dietary intake therefore plays a secondary role. Yet vitamin D is one of the substances essential to human life.

It has been proven that vitamin D :

• promotes normal calcium levels in the blood
• contributes to the maintenance of normal bone structure and muscle function
• plays a role in cell division
• ensures normal functioning of the immune system and normal dentition.

Vitamin K is also an essential component, but we generally obtain it from the diet. In combination with vitamin D administration, it ensures bone maintenance and normal blood coagulation.

Why vitamin K/D?

Studies have shown that the vitamin D intake of the local population is low.

Unfavorable longitudes and latitudes and, in this context, unfavorable sunlight with too few hours of sunshine make it difficult to obtain sufficient quantities.

What's more, the lack of hours of exposure to the sun due to the daily routine of dressing up in bedrooms makes it almost impossible to obtain a full vitamin D intake, even during the sunny months.

Since some animal-based foods provide only small amounts of vitamin D, the use of a supplement such as vitamin K/D is an ideal way of filling the supply gap.

Vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 work hand in hand and are present in this product in a highly bioavailable form, as vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 (MK-7) respectively.

Vitamin K/D capabilities

We now know that almost 50 types of tissue in the human body have a receptor for vitamin D. If a receptor is present, the body will be able to absorb it. If a receptor is present, this means that vitamin D exerts certain effects on all these tissues in the form of the prohormone "25-D".

It has been proven that an adequate intake of vitamin D has a number of positive effects on the human body. Not only does it contribute to the maintenance of normal calcium levels, normal bone structure and normal muscle function, but it also supports the functioning of the immune system, contributes to the maintenance of healthy teeth and plays an independent role in cell division.

In addition to vitamin D, vitamin K also plays an important role in bone metabolism.

In the event of vitamin K deficiency, vitamin D is unable to significantly distribute calcium stores to the bones. The two work together like a kind of crack team. This is why the combined administration of vitamin K and vitamin D seems extremely sensible.
