Product Notes:
Vitamin D3 promotes both calcium absorption and the transport of calcium to the bones. Recent studies indicate it may also help support healthy insulin action and glucose metabolism, and may also have a positive impact on immune function.
Vitamin K also helps bone health, and may also have a role in arterial health, due to its ability to support proper calcium metabolism in vascular structures. (If one takes too much vitamin D3 without there being enough vitamin K2 present, the calcium might get absorbed into the blood vessels and contribute to plaque build-up / hardening of the arteries, instead of taking up residency in the bones.)
Those living in northern latitudes such as Canada may be deficient in Vitamin D during much of the year, as well as people with digestive systems compromised by conditions such as Crohn's disease, colitis, celiac, or sprue.
