Product Description: Bone & Immune Health 2-In-1 Formula Vegan Supplement With VitaShine D3™ Better Together! Recent research suggests that two nutrients important for the efficient use of calcium in the body, vitamins D3 and K2, may be even more beneficial when taken together. Swanson Vitamin D3 & K2 puts these bone- and heart-healthy nutrients in one convenient veggie capsule a day. What if I’m already supplementing with vitamins D and K or getting them from my diet? Swanson now offers a lower dose of D3 and K2 for you. Swanson’s Low Dose Vitamin D3 & K2 provides 50 mcg (2,000 IU) of vegan D3 from lichen and 75 mcg of K2 (MK-7 form) from soy-free chickpeas in one daily veggie capsule to help support cardiovascular health and promote strong, healthy bones. Vitamin D helps build strong bones by increasing the body’s absorption of calcium and phosphorus. It is available in supplement form as ergocalciferol (D2) or cholecalciferol (D3). Studies have shown that D3 may be the more potent, longer-lasting form your body prefers. Similarly, vitamin K is found in K1 and K2 forms. K2 is especially important for bone and cardiovascular health because it helps move calcium from your arteries to your bones. K2 is composed of a series of menaquinones, of which menaquinone-7 (MK-7) is the most efficiently absorbed and bioavailable. New insights into the interaction of vitamin D and K suggest that vitamin D enhances the concentration of bone proteins that use vitamin K for healthy bone formation, and that essential mineralization stimulated by vitamin K may be positively influenced by the presence of vitamin D.
How to Use: Take 1 veggie capsule daily with food and water as a supplement.
