- Health benefits of vitamin D3-K2
Vitamin D3 and K2 are a key synergistic combination and together play a central role in bone health. Vitamin D is involved in the uptake of calcium and phosphorus from the intestine, which are the main ingredients in healthy bones and teeth. This vitamin is therefore of importance for the formation of the skeleton in children. Furthermore, vitamin D helps lower the risk of falling that is linked to instability related to muscle weakness. This is especially relevant for elderly aged over 60, considering they have higher risks of bone fractures when they fall.
Furthermore, vitamin D contributes to maintaining normal calcium levels in blood and vitamin K is involved in normal blood clotting.
It is important to state that these benefits come on top of the well-known role of vitamin D on muscle health, and immune system health in both children and adults. Certain groups have higher vitamin D requirements, such as young children, elderly, pregnant women, people with a darker skin and people who are not often outside.
- The Benefits Of Liposomal Vitamin D3 and K2
Vitamin D3+K2 is packed in liposomes. The phospholipid bilayer coat of the liposomes is capable of protecting bioactives against harmful bodily processes. In this way, liposomes protect the integrity and functionality of the encapsulated bioactives, in this case vitamin D3 and K2. The vitamins are more stable when packed in a liposome. These advantages combined make sure that vitamin D3 and K2 arrive in the gut in their intact form, increasing the chance of arriving at the target site in their functional forms.
