Vitamin D Plus K by Klaire Labs is a highly bioavailable combination of vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 (MK-7). These nutrients work synergistically to help support bone, heart, immune system, and brain health.
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin (technically a hormone) that increases the absorption of calcium needed to build strong bones. It also helps the body absorb other important minerals including iron, magnesium, phosphate, and zinc.
Vitamin D also helps regulate immunity and improves brain health.
Vitamin K2 works with vitamin D to shuttle calcium out of the arteries where it forms plaques and into bones where it's needed.
Most of our vitamin D comes from sunlight exposure, however, people are spending more time indoors than ever. It's not a surprise that vitamin D deficiency is very common throughout the world. Vitamin K2 deficiency is also very common as found in very few foods.
As we get older, the body's ability to make vitamin D from sunlight declines. This makes vitamin D especially helpful for elderly individuals who are at a high risk of low bone density and fractures from falls.
This formula contains the most effective form of vitamin D called cholecalciferol, or vitamin D3. It also contains the MK-7 form of vitamin K2, which is especially beneficial for people that have chronic health issues causing nutrient malabsorption. Research shows this form stays in the body longer than other forms.
Some benefits of taking of Klaire Lab's Vitamin D Plus K may include:
-
Improved bone strength and density
-
Improved heart and blood vessel health
-
Healthy immune function
- Healthy mood and stress levels
Frequently Asked Questions
Why combine vitamin D3 and vitamin K2?
They work synergistically to support bone and cardiovascular health. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, while vitamin K2 helps direct that calcium toward the bones rather than the arteries.
What form of vitamin D and K2 does this use?
Cholecalciferol (D3) and MK-7 (K2). This formula uses cholecalciferol, considered the most effective form of vitamin D, along with the MK-7 form of vitamin K2, which research shows stays in the body longer than other K2 forms.
Who might especially benefit from this formula?
People with limited sun exposure or nutrient absorption challenges. As we age, the body's ability to make vitamin D from sunlight declines, and MK-7 is noted as especially useful for those with chronic issues affecting nutrient absorption.
What does vitamin D support beyond bone health?
Immune and brain health. Vitamin D also helps regulate immunity and supports healthy brain function, in addition to its role in calcium absorption.
