Vitamin D3: A Vital Health-Promoting Vitamin
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that helps to maintain bone health by aiding calcium absorption and regulating the movement of calcium in and out of bone tissue. Without vitamin D, your body wouldn’t fully absorb the calcium present in the food and supplements you consume. Vitamin D also helps your immune system fight off the germs that cause illnesses like colds and flu.
Vitamin D is technically a non-essential vitamin because the skin produces it with exposure to the sun. It’s also contained in such foods as fatty fish. However, most people are deficient in vitamin D, which results in a number of health ailments (namely, osteoporosis).
Vitamin D is available in two forms: vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). Vitamin D3 is the more potent of the two, as it tends to be more readily converted to the active form in the body.
Vitamin K2: A Key Vitamin for the Blood and Bones
Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a critical role in enabling certain enzymes in the body to function. Some of these enzymes help to form blood clotting factors, which are essential for preventing excessive bleeding. Other enzymes affected by vitamin K are important for fixing calcium in bones. Research has also suggested that vitamin K may be critical for testosterone production.
There are two major forms of vitamin K: vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) and vitamin K2 (menaquinone). K1 is the plant form found in green veggies like spinach and broccoli. K2 is the animal form and is found in dairy, meat, organ meat, and eggs as well as bacteria. The difference between the two forms is that K2 has a chemical “tail” or side chain, which makes it the more bioavailable form.
