Progressive Labs Osteo-Mins PM with Vitamin D Plus K1 and K2 Food Supplement, 240 Capsules

Why Take It Before Bed?

Osteo-Mins PM is formulated for nightly use, aligning with your body's natural rhythms. The name 'PM' highlights its intended timing. Taking these capsules before bed may support bone remodelling processes that are more active during sleep. Many users find a bedtime routine easier to remember, ensuring consistent supplementation. Simply take one capsule with water before retiring.

Key Ingredients: Vitamin D, K1 and K2

Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol)

Vitamin D3 is essential for calcium absorption and bone mineralisation. It helps maintain normal blood calcium levels and supports overall bone density. The D3 form is naturally produced by the skin in response to sunlight, offering high bioavailability.

Vitamin K1 (Phylloquinone)

Vitamin K1 plays a key role in blood clotting and bone metabolism. It acts as a cofactor for enzymes that activate proteins involved in bone formation, including osteocalcin.

Vitamin K2 (Menaquinone-7)

Vitamin K2, particularly the MK-7 form, has a longer half-life in the body and more effectively activates osteocalcin. This protein helps bind calcium to the bone matrix, ensuring calcium is deposited in bones rather than soft tissues. This makes K2 critical for bone strength and cardiovascular health.

Together, these three vitamins work synergistically. D3 enhances calcium absorption from the gut, while K1 and K2 direct that calcium to the bones. This combination supports the synthesis of osteocalcin, a key marker of bone turnover.

How Does Osteo-Mins PM Support Bone Health?

The primary mechanism of Osteo-Mins PM is the support of osteocalcin synthesis. Osteocalcin is a non-collagenous protein produced by osteoblasts (bone-building cells). It requires vitamin K for activation and vitamin D for production. By providing both D and K vitamins, this supplement helps ensure osteocalcin functions properly.

Adequate osteocalcin activity is associated with maintaining bone mineral density. Additionally, by promoting proper calcium distribution, Osteo-Mins PM may support cardiovascular health, as calcium buildup in arteries is a concern for many adults.

Remember, bone health is influenced by many factors including diet, exercise, and hormonal status. This supplement is intended to support, not replace, a balanced lifestyle.
