What to Look For in a D3 + K2 Supplement
When selecting a vitamin D3 and K2 supplement, it is important to consider the dosage forms and the presence of additional synergistic nutrients.

Understanding the Synergy: How D3 and K2 Work Together
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) functions as a hormone, influencing gene expression throughout the body. It supports the production of calcium-binding proteins that increase calcium absorption in the gut. However, without vitamin K2, the absorbed calcium may not be properly directed. Vitamin K2 activates matrix GLA protein (MGP), which helps prevent calcium from accumulating in blood vessel walls, and osteocalcin, which binds calcium to the bone matrix. This complementary action ensures that calcium supports bone density while maintaining arterial flexibility. The addition of magnesium, zinc, and boron in D3 Plus further supports these processes: magnesium assists in vitamin D activation, zinc contributes to normal collagen formation and bone remodelling, and boron is included as a trace mineral.*
