What is Vitals Vitamin K2 + D3?
How do vitamins K and D work together
Vitamin D stimulates the production of vitamin K-dependent proteins. And vitamin K is needed as a coenzyme to activate (carboxylate) this. These are the so-called Gla proteins, in which the glutamic acid (Glu) in specific proteins is converted into γ-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla). Carboxylation is essential for the vast majority of the functions of these proteins. Important examples of this are osteocalcin(1) and Matrix-Gla protein (MGP)(2). A common property of these carboxylated vitamin K-dependent Gla proteins is that they bind calcium. In this way, vitamin K and vitamin D ensure that calcium ends up in the right places in the body.
- Osteocalcin: (also known as 'bone-gla protein') is a vitamin K-dependent protein that is produced in bone and dental tissue and regulates its mineralization.
- Matrix-Gla protein: A vitamin K-dependent protein produced in most soft tissues, such as blood vessels, cartilage, kidneys, lungs and spleen, as well as bone tissue. MGP (like osteocalcin and other Gla proteins) has a calcium-binding property.
- Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting
- Vitamin K helps ensure that calcium is absorbed into the bones
- Vitamin D helps ensure that calcium is normally absorbed from food
- Vitamin D contributes to normal blood calcium levels
- Vitamin D contributes to the normal use of calcium by the body
- Vitamin D is good for the muscles
- Vitamin D contributes to the process of cell renewal
- Vitamin D supports the body's defenses
Kappa Bioscience's K2Vital® Delta
Vitamin K2 is known to be highly unstable. In combination with minerals or certain excipients, the vitamin K2 content in a product can quickly decrease. This is of course highly undesirable, because you want to be able to store a supplement for its entire shelf life. The Norwegian producer Kappa Bioscience has developed a vitamin K2 raw material that is very well protected against external influences. By means of a patented micro-encapsulation process, the K2 is completely encapsulated, guaranteeing stability even in products with aggressive mineral compounds. Vitals has selected K2Vital® Delta as the best vitamin K2 raw material after extensive stability tests with various K2 raw materials in various compositions.
