You’ve probably heard about Vitamin D3 for bone health or immune support — but pairing it with K2? That might sound like a new twist. Spoiler: it’s not just hype. It’s science-backed synergy.
If you’re taking D3 alone, you might be missing a piece.
Vitamin D3 helps your body absorb calcium — but what happens to that calcium next? Without enough Vitamin K2, it can end up in your arteries instead of your bones. That’s where things can get tricky for long-term cardiovascular health.
So why D3 and K2 together?
-
D3 boosts calcium absorption in your gut.
-
K2 helps shuttle that calcium to your bones — and keeps it out of soft tissues like arteries.
In simple terms: D3 brings in the calcium, K2 tells it where to go. This combo supports not just strong bones, but also a healthy heart and flexible arteries.
You’ll especially want to consider D3 + K2 if:
-
You get little sun exposure
-
You’re supplementing with calcium or D3 alone
-
You’re focused on bone density or cardiovascular health
Forms that matter:
-
D3: Look for cholecalciferol (the active form your body uses best).
-
K2: Go for MK-7 (longer-lasting in the body than MK-4).
Both are fat-soluble, so take your supplement with food for optimal absorption.
