Over the past year, its been hard to miss the frequent news stories of expanding research on the role of vitamin D in maintaining health. Vitamin D is best known for its important role in bone health, but we are learning that this multifunctional vitamin may play a role in immune health, heart health, breast health, emotional health and much more! We have also learned that most Americans are deficient in vitamin D!
While Market America’s Isotonix® Vitamin D with K2 contains 5,000 IUs of vitamin D per serving, it also contains the less familiar vitamin K2.
Vitamin K is included in Isotonix Vitamin D with K2 because of its unique partnership with vitamin D. Vitamins K and D work together to support calcium absorption and utilization. Vitamin K supports the normal delivery of calcium to the bones and promotes healthy arteries.*
At least two naturally-occurring forms of vitamin K have been identified and are known as K1 and K2. While there are many similarities between these two forms of vitamin K, they are distinguished by their important differences. The most significant difference between K1 and K2 is their chemical structure which results in different pharmacokinetic properties. Vitamin K1 is retained primarily in the liver where, at high doses, it may interfere with the action of warfarin and other anticoagulant medications.*
Vitamin K2 has a different mechanism of action. It is transported primarily to bones and blood vessels. Vitamin K2 helps to maintain bone mass, support calcium utilization and promote elasticity of blood vessels.*
