General Description
Vitamin D3K2 1000 is a liquid dietary supplement that combines vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and vitamin K2 (menaquinone MK-7) in a drop-based dosage. One drop provides 1,000 IU (25 µg) of vitamin D3 and 30 µg of vitamin K2. The base consists of medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) from coconut oil, which ensures good solubility of the fat-soluble vitamins. Both vitamins perform recognized nutritional functions that are important for human metabolism.
According to the EU Health Claims Regulation, Vitamin D contributes to:
- the maintenance of normal bones,
- the normal functioning of the immune system,
- normal muscle function,
- normal blood calcium levels,
- the normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus,
- the maintenance of normal teeth.
Vitamin K contributes to:
- the maintenance of normal bones,
- normal blood clotting.
Biochemical Principles
Vitamin D3 is primarily synthesized in the human body through sun exposure and acts as a prohormone. It plays a central role in calcium metabolism, supports bone mineralization, and is involved in immunological processes. Vitamin K2 (as MK-7) activates specific proteins such as osteocalcin, which are important for bone structure and calcium metabolism.
The combination of vitamin D3 and K2 is often chosen because both vitamins have different, complementary functions in mineral balance. The description refers to generally established nutritional principles and does not contain any medical claims.
Requirements and Intake
The need for vitamin D can depend on sun exposure, skin type, season, diet, and individual lifestyle. During the winter months or with low sun exposure, the body's own production may be limited. Vitamin K2 is obtained through fermented foods, certain types of cheese, and green vegetables.
Vitamin D3K2 1000 provides a defined, drop-based amount of both vitamins and enables targeted supplementation. One drop contains the amounts of vitamin D3 (1,000 IU) and vitamin K2 (30 µg) indicated on the label.
Occurrence in Foods
Vitamin D is naturally found in fatty fish, egg yolks, and fortified foods, but usually only in small amounts. Vitamin K2 is found mainly in fermented foods such as natto, as well as in certain types of cheese. The actual intake can therefore vary greatly.
Special Features of Absorption
Vitamin D3 and K2 are fat-soluble vitamins and are therefore particularly well absorbed in an oil base. The consumption recommendation on the label is: let one drop melt on the tongue every other day.
MCT oil serves as a carrier and improves the solubility of the vitamins. These notes are based on nutritional science principles and do not contain any medical claims.
