Vitamin K2 then helps activate osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium to the bone matrix, and matrix GLA protein, which helps maintain arterial flexibility by discouraging calcium deposition in soft tissues. Vitamin A works alongside these to support cell growth and immune function. This complementary action makes the trio a powerful combination for skeletal and cardiovascular health.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat to Look For in a D3 + K2 Supplement\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen choosing a supplement, consider the form and dosage. Carlson uses vitamin K2 as MK-7 (menaquinone-7), known for its longer half-life and sustained activity compared to MK-4. The formula provides 3000 mcg RAE of vitamin A (as beta-carotene and retinyl palmitate), 125 mcg (5000 IU) of vitamin D3, and 90 mcg of K2 as MK-7 per soft gel capsule. This product is tested by a UKAS-accredited laboratory for potency and quality, ensuring you get what is on the label. The softgels are easy to swallow, making daily supplementation hassle-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Take Vitamins A, D3, and K2 Together?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVitamin D3 helps the body absorb calcium from the diet, while vitamin K2 supports the direction of that calcium to the bones and teeth, promoting proper utilisation. Vitamin A contributes to maintaining healthy vision and immune function. Combining these three fat-soluble vitamins in a single soft gel capsule offers a convenient way to support overall wellness, bone building, and calcium metabolism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRecommended Dosage\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake one soft gel capsule daily with food.
