Organic Plant D3 + K2 | 5000 IU D3 & 120 mcg K2 (MK-7) from MenaQ7 - Vegan, Whole Food

What Makes This Organic Plant D3 + K2 Special?

Our Organic Plant D3 + K2 combines two fat-soluble vitamins in a plant-based, whole food formula. The vitamin D3 is sourced from organic algae grown in natural sunlight, making it 100% plant-based and suitable for vegans. Many D3 supplements come from lanolin (sheep wool), but this algae-derived D3 is a clean alternative. The vitamin K2 is provided as all-trans MK7 from MenaQ7, a patented form that is over 94% biologically active. Standard MK7 supplements often contain a mixture of cis and trans isomers, with the cis form being inactive. MenaQ7 ensures you get only the active all-trans form for maximum effectiveness. Additionally, this product is enhanced with a prebiotic and superfood complex to support digestion. The formula is USDA organic certified, third-party tested for over 100 contaminants, and free from GMOs, soya, gluten, and preservatives.

Key Health Benefits

• Bone Health: Vitamin D3 supports normal calcium absorption, while vitamin K2 helps incorporate calcium into the bone matrix, which may contribute to bone density and strength.*
• Immune Support: Vitamin D3 plays a role in normal immune function by modulating the activity of immune cells.*
• Heart Health: Vitamin K2 helps maintain arterial flexibility by activating matrix GLA protein, which may help prevent calcium deposition in blood vessels.*
• Dental Health: Proper calcium utilisation supports strong teeth and enamel.*

Why Take Vitamin D3 and K2 Together?

Vitamin D3 and K2 work as a team to support optimum calcium utilisation. While vitamin D3 helps increase calcium absorption from the digestive tract, vitamin K2 helps activate proteins that direct calcium to the bones and teeth, where it is needed, and away from soft tissues like arteries. This synergistic relationship is essential for maintaining strong bones, healthy teeth, and cardiovascular health. Our supplement provides 5000 IU of vitamin D3 and 120 mcg of vitamin K2, giving you clinically validated doses for comprehensive support.

Understanding the Synergy: How D3 and K2 Work Together

Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is a hormone precursor that supports the production of calcium-binding proteins in the intestine. This process enhances calcium absorption from food. However, without vitamin K2, calcium may be deposited in blood vessel walls instead of the skeleton. Vitamin K2 activates two key proteins: osteocalcin, which binds calcium to bone matrix, and matrix GLA protein (MGP), which helps keep calcium out of arterial walls. The combination of D3 and K2 is especially important for individuals who take high-dose vitamin D3, as increased calcium absorption without adequate K2 may lead to calcium build-up in soft tissues. By taking both together, you help ensure that calcium is directed to where it belongs.

What to Look For in a D3 + K2 Supplement

• Dosage: Many studies undertake 1000–5000 IU of D3 and 45–100 mcg of K2 (MK-7). This product provides 5000 IU D3 and 120 mcg K2, which is within the effective range for most adults.
• Form of K2: Look for all-trans MK7 rather than MK4 or cis-isomers. MK7 has a longer half-life, allowing for once-daily dosage.
• Source of D3: Plant-based D3 from algae is ideal for vegans. Lanolin-derived D3 is common but not suitable for plant-based diets.
• Certifications: USDA organic, non-GMO, and third-party tested ensure purity and quality.
• Additional Ingredients: Some supplements include excipients, fillers, or additives. This product is free from unnecessary additives.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I take this supplement?

Take one capsule daily with a meal containing dietary fat for optimum absorption. As fat-soluble vitamins, D3 and K2 are best absorbed when consumed with food.

Can I take this with other medications?

If you are taking blood thinners (e.g., warfarin), consult your health care provider before taking vitamin K2, as it may interfere with anticoagulant therapy. Also, individuals with kidney stones or hypercalcaemia should consult a professional before taking high-dose vitamin D.

Is this product suitable for vegans?

Yes, both D3 (from algae) and K2 (from MenaQ7) are plant-based, making this supplement suitable for vegans and vegetarians.

What is the difference between MK-7 and MK-4?

MK-7 is derived from natto (fermented soya) or produced synthetically and has a longer half-life (about 3 days) compared to MK-4 (a few hours). This means MK-7 can be taken once daily, while MK-4 often requires multiple doses. All-trans MK7 from MenaQ7 is the preferred form for sustained activity.

Recommended Dosage

Each serving (one capsule) provides 5000 IU of vitamin D3 and 120 mcg of vitamin K2 as all-trans MK7. For most adults, this is a safe and effective dose for maintaining healthy vitamin D levels and supporting calcium utilisation. However, individual needs may vary. We recommend consulting with a health care professional to determine the appropriate dosage for your specific health status.
