What Makes FREZZOR Vitamin D3 and K2 Special?
FREZZOR sources its vitamin D3 exclusively from lanolin derived from 100% New Zealand sheep's wool—a grass-fed, pasture-raised source known for purity. This unique sourcing ensures the D3 is natural and free from synthetic starting materials. The vitamin K2 is provided as menaquinone-7 (MK-7), the most bioavailable and long-lasting form, derived from fermented chickpea (non-GMO).
Each batch is third-party tested for potency and purity. The softgels are easy to swallow, and with 180 per bottle (a three-month supply), FREZZOR offers excellent value for daily use.
Understanding the Synergy: How D3 and K2 Work Together
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) increases the production of calcium-binding proteins in the intestine, boosting calcium absorption. Simultaneously, it stimulates the synthesis of osteocalcin, a protein needed for bone mineralisation. However, osteocalcin requires activation by vitamin K2 to bind calcium into the bone matrix.
Vitamin K2, specifically as menaquinone-7 (MK-7), activates matrix GLA protein (MGP), which helps maintain arterial flexibility by preventing calcium deposition in vessel walls. This dual action—D3 pulling calcium in and K2 guiding it to bones—makes the combination uniquely effective for maintaining strong bones and a healthy cardiovascular system.
MK-7 is the preferred form because of its longer half-life, providing steady activity over 24 hours from a single dose. FREZZOR uses MK-7, ensuring sustained support throughout the day.
Key Health Benefits
-
Bone Health: Vitamin D contributes to normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus, and vitamin K contributes to maintenance of normal bones.
-
Dental Health: Calcium deposition in teeth contributes to strong enamel and overall oral health.
-
Immune Support: Vitamin D contributes to normal function of the immune system.
-
Heart Health: By activating MGP, K2 helps maintain arterial flexibility and supports normal calcium balance in blood vessels.
These benefits work together to support an active, healthy lifestyle. As with any supplement, individual results may vary.
Why Take Vitamin D3 and K2 Together?
FREZZOR Vitamin D3 and K2 capsules combine high-potency vitamin D3 from 100% New Zealand sheep's wool lanolin with vitamin K2 as MK-7. While vitamin D3 helps increase calcium absorption from the digestive tract, vitamin K2 activates proteins that direct calcium to the bones and teeth—and away from soft tissues like arteries. This synergy means taking them together supports healthy calcium utilisation, making the pair essential for those focused on bone and cardiovascular wellness.
Many people take vitamin D3 alone, but without adequate K2, calcium may not reach the right places. FREZZOR delivers both nutrients in one convenient softgel, with 2000 IU of D3 and 80 mcg of K2 (MK-7)—a ratio that aligns with current research on optimal daily intake.
What to Look For in a D3 + K2 Supplement
When choosing a D3 and K2 supplement, consider the following:
-
Dosage Ratio: A ratio of 2000 IU D3 to 80 mcg K2 (MK-7) is common and well-studied. FREZZOR matches this.
-
Form of K2: MK-7 is preferred over MK-4 due to longer half-life and once-daily dosing. FREZZOR uses MK-7.
-
Source Purity: Lanolin from grass-fed sheep (as in FREZZOR) provides natural D3 without synthetic additives.
-
Third-Party Testing: Look for supplements that are tested for contaminants and potency. FREZZOR is third-party tested.
-
Certifications: Non-GMO, gluten-free, and suitable for various dietary needs.
Always consult a healthcare professional before starting a new supplement regimen, especially if you are on blood thinners like warfarin (vitamin K can interact).
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I take vitamin D3 and K2 separately?
Yes, but taking them together ensures optimal calcium utilisation. K2 helps direct the calcium that D3 helps absorb, so combining them maximises the benefits.
What is the best time to take them?
Vitamin D3 is fat-soluble, so take with a meal containing fat for best absorption. Many users take their softgel with breakfast or lunch.
Are there any side effects?
Vitamin D3 and K2 are generally well-tolerated at recommended doses. Excessive vitamin D may lead to elevated calcium levels. Stick to the serving size and consult a healthcare provider if pregnant, nursing, or on medication.
Is this suitable for vegans?
Vitamin D3 in FREZZOR is from lanolin (sheep's wool), which is not vegan. The K2 is from fermented chickpea. Those seeking vegan D3 should look for plant-derived alternatives.
