Summary
This combination therapy pairs Vitamin D3, a prohormone crucial for calcium absorption and immune regulation, with Vitamin K2, which directs that calcium to bones and away from arteries. The liposomal delivery system aims to enhance the bioavailability of these fat-soluble vitamins, potentially improving their efficacy in supporting skeletal and cardiovascular health, key pillars of healthspan.
Purpose
Synergistically supports bone, cardiovascular, and immune health.
Card Summary
A synergistic supplement combining D3 for calcium absorption and K2 to direct calcium to bones, supporting skeletal and cardiovascular health.

Impact
Score:
6.5
Justification:
Corrects common deficiencies, supporting foundational bone, immune, and cardiovascular systems.
Evidence
Grade:
A
Score:
8.5
Justification:
Extensive human RCTs support D3 and K2 for bone and cardiovascular health.
Safety
Score:
3.5
Justification:
Very safe at recommended doses; risk of hypercalcemia with excessive D3 intake.
Flags
- Excessive Vitamin D can lead to hypercalcemia (high blood calcium), a serious condition.
- Vitamin K can interfere with anticoagulant drugs like Warfarin (Coumadin); consult a physician.
- Regular blood testing of 25(OH)D levels is crucial to personalize dosage and prevent toxicity.
Verdict
A foundational supplement for bone, immune, and cardiovascular healthspan.
