Vitamin K2 and Vitamin D3 are two very important vitamins for us to consider through our lifetime especially as we age. Vitamin D3 supplementation starts essentially at childbirth and is continued to be recommended through every stage of life. Vitamin K2 is very important as we age due to heredity as well as many lifestyle factors.
Vitamin K is a group of naturally occurring and structurally similar, fat-soluble vitamins and is vital for the proper utilization of calcium. Through its activation of the protein osteocalcin, vitamin K helps to bind newly absorbed calcium to the mineral matrix in your bones.
Unlike any other vitamins, Vitamin K has been found to help maintain bone mineral density by reducing the effect of osteoclasts, a cell known to break down the bone matrix. In addition to that, vitamin K also provides significant cardiovascular protection by helping to activate Matrix GLA Protein (MGP), an inhibitor of circulatory calcification. Simply put Vitamin K2 is one of the only vitamins proven to break down plaque buildup within vital organs. Thus, vitamin D3 and K2 not only share similar features, but they also act synergistically to promote a healthy heart and strong bones.
