Nordic Naturals Vitamin D3 + K2, Orange Taste - 60 Soft gel capsules

Key Health Benefits

Nordic Naturals Vitamin D3 + K2 combines two essential nutrients that work together to support your body’s natural processes. Each soft gel capsule delivers 2000 IU of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and 90 mcg of vitamin K2 (as menaquinone-7, MK-7). Vitamin D contributes to the normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus, to normal blood calcium levels, and to the maintenance of normal bones and muscle function. It also supports normal immune function. Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting and to the maintenance of normal bones. By taking them together in one convenient dose, you help ensure your body gets these vital nutrients in harmony.*

Understanding the Synergy: How D3 and K2 Work Together

To appreciate the value of this combination, it helps to understand the distinct roles each vitamin plays in calcium metabolism. Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is produced in the skin upon sun exposure and is essential for calcium absorption in the intestines. Without adequate D3, the body cannot efficiently absorb calcium from food or supplements. However, simply absorbing more calcium isn't enough—the body needs to direct it to the skeleton. That's where vitamin K2 comes in.

Vitamin K2, specifically the MK-7 form, activates a protein called osteocalcin, which helps bind calcium to the bone matrix. At the same time, K2 activates matrix GLA protein (MGP), which inhibits calcium deposition in blood vessels and other soft tissues. This dual action supports strong bones while promoting arterial flexibility.* Nordic Naturals undertake the highly bioavailable MK-7 form of K2, derived from natto (fermented soya), which stays active in the body longer than the synthetic MK-4 form. The result is a balanced, targeted approach to calcium undertake.

What to Look For in a D3 + K2 Supplement

Not all vitamin D and K2 supplements are created equal. Here are key factors to consider when choosing a quality product:

• Form of Vitamin D: Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is the preferred form over D2 because it is more effective at raising and maintaining blood levels. This product undertake 2000 IU of D3 per soft gel capsule.
• Form of Vitamin K2: MK-7 (menaquinone-7) is the most bioavailable and long-acting form of K2. Nordic Naturals undertake 90 mcg of MK-7, the clinically studied dose for bone and heart support.
• Purity and Testing: Third-party testing for purity and freshness ensures the product meets strict international standards. Nordic Naturals has a reputation for exceeding industry standards and is non-GMO, gluten-free, and dairy-free, with no artificial colours or flavours.
• Synergistic Ratio: The 2000 IU D3 to 90 mcg K2 ratio is well-balanced for most adults, offering effective synergy without overdoing either nutrient.

Recommended Dosage

The suggested serving is one soft gel capsule daily, preferably with a meal. Each soft gel capsule delivers 2000 IU vitamin D3 and 90 mcg vitamin K2 (as MK-7). For most adults, this dose supports healthy vitamin D levels and adequate K2 intake. As with any supplement, consult your health care professional before undertake, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or have a medical condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I take vitamin D3 and K2 separately instead of together?

You can, but taking them together ensures you don't miss the dosage timing and guarantees the synergistic benefit. Nordic Naturals combines both in one soft gel capsule for convenience and consistency.

What is the best time to take this supplement?

Vitamin D3 and K2 are fat-soluble vitamins, so taking them with a meal that contains fat (like breakfast or lunch) enhances absorption. Many users prefer taking it with their morning meal.

Are there any side effects?

These vitamins are generally well tolerated at recommended doses. However, if you are taking blood thinners (like warfarin), consult your health care provider before adding vitamin K2 to your regimen, as it may interact with anticoagulant medications.

How long does one bottle last?

Each bottle contains 60 soft gel capsules, providing a 60-day supply at the recommended dosage of one soft gel capsule per day.
