Vitamin D3 with K2

Our most popular vitamin D formula, this easy to take liquid features the synergistic pairing of vitamin D3 with vitamin K2 for optimal absorption and efficacy in supporting bone health and immunity. Vitamin D supports the body with the absorption of calcium & vitamin K helps our bones use calcium effectively.

We have used the preferred forms of both nutrients; D3 is the same form of vitamin D produced by the body and vitamin K2 is provided as MenaQ7®. The natural orange flavour makes it a tasty, hassle-free alternative for those who have difficulty swallowing tablets or capsules..

The UK government recommends that everyone over the age of 1 should be taking 10mcg (400iu) of vitamin D daily, especially during autumn and winter when we cannot generate enough of this vitamin through sunlight. An RDA is the minimum amount needed to meet basic nutritional needs, whereas our formula is based on the recommendations of the Endocrine Society for optimal health benefits. Vitamin D3 with K2 is suitable for children from age 1 at a dose of 1 drop per day.

Vitamin D3 plays an important role in bone health - without it, our bodies cannot absorb calcium which is critical for strong bones. It's also needed for muscle function, as well as healthy, balanced immune system function. Low vitamin D levels, which are common amongst the UK population, particularly during winter, may compromise our immune response and leave us at risk of infection. Because it helps to balance the immune system, it's important for those with over-active immune systems too.

Vitamin K contributes to the maintenance of normal bones, working synergistically with vitamin D to ensure that calcium is not only absorbed but sent to our bones where we need it the most. Vitamin K is also needed for normal cardiovascular function. There are two forms of vitamin K, K1 and K2, and it is vitamin K2 that has demonstrated more beneficial effects on our bones, compared to K1.¹

MenaQ7® is a clinically validated form of MK-7, the form of vitamin K2 which lasts the longest in the body. We've chosen to use MenaQ7® from chickpea protein and Bacillus lichenformis, because it's natural and free from all allergens.

Our vitamin D3 is derived from lanolin (sheeps wool). It is suitable for vegetarians but not vegans.

Symptoms of vitamin D deficiency such as muscle aches and pains, frequent colds and flus, low immune function and bone weakness may improve once vitamin D levels are elevated into the normal range. The amount of time to rectify deficiencies will depend on the level of vitamin D deficiency which is why we always recommend regular vitamin D testing.

For moderate to severe deficiency this can take between 8 and 16 weeks.
