What Makes This Vegan D3+K2 Supplement Special?
Sapling's formula uses lichen-sourced vitamin D3 (100% vegan, no lanolin) and K2VITAL® menaquinone-7 (MK-7) from fermented chickpea. MK-7 has a longer half-life, enabling once-daily dosage. Softgels are tapioca-based (vegan) with MCT oil from coconut to enhance absorption. Free from gluten, GM ingredients, lanolin, carrageenan, colourants, and artificial flavours. Bottled in the United States. For each bottle sold, one tree is planted.
Why Take Vitamin D3 and K2 Together?
Vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 work together to support calcium metabolism. Vitamin D3 increases calcium absorption from the digestive system, while vitamin K2 helps direct calcium to bones and teeth, away from soft tissues. Taking them together optimises this synergy. This combination is especially important for those on plant-based diets, as vitamin D3 from lichen and K2 from chickpea provide a complete vegan source.
Understanding the Synergy: How D3 and K2 Work Together
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) helps produce calcium-binding proteins in the intestinal lining, boosting calcium absorption. Vitamin K2 activates osteocalcin (which binds calcium to the bone matrix) and supports the normal function of matrix GLA protein, which helps maintain healthy calcium distribution in the body.* This ensures calcium is used where needed.*
