Vitamin D, the “sunshine vitamin” is a hormone that is typically categorized as a vitamin. The body is able to synthesize pre-vitamin D3 in the skin when exposed to sunlight. The pre-vitamin D3 is rapidly converted into vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 is then transported through the blood to the liver and kidney where it is converted into the hormone calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D. Vitamin K is found in two primary forms: Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) and Vitamin K2 (menaquinone). The main difference between these forms is that K2 as menaquinone 7 is absorbed at a much higher rate than K1 and remains in the body 36 times longer (allowing it to move beyond the liver into other tissues); whereas K1 is primarily utilized by the liver to make blood clotting factors. In addition to other roles, Vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7) is essential for healthy, strong bones and for supporting arterial health.* Both Vitamin D3+K2 are formulated together in a synergistic formula to help support cardiovascular health, provide bone structure support, help support normal & healthy Calcium Levels.* Features: Contains vitamin D-3 (cholecalciferol), a highly bioavailable form of Vitamin D. Sourced from lanolin (vegetarian source of Vitamin D). Menaquinone-7 is the most efficacious form of Vitamin K for bone and cardio health. Menaquinone-7 is made from an all-natural food source (fermented soy). 2,500IU Vitamin D3 & 45mcg Vitamin K2 per Vegetarian Capsule   Benefits: Vitamin D3 & K2 both stimulate the synthesis of osteocalcin, an important protein involved in bone formation.* Osteocalcin helps to build new bone matrix by aiding the binding of calcium. Vitamin D3 & K2 both synergistically help maintain adequate blood calcium levels which help support cellular metabolic processes, cardiovascular and neuromuscular/neurological function.* Supports the integrity of arterial walls through the regulation of calcium in the body.* Help support the health and elasticity of arterial walls.*

Vitamin K is found in two primary forms: Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) and Vitamin K2(menaquinone). There are a few different menquinones such as menaquinone 4 and menaquinone 7. The main difference between these forms is that K2 as menaquinone 7 is absorbed at a much higher rate than K1 and remains in the body 36 times longer (allowing it to move beyond the liver into other tissues); whereas K1 is primarily utilized by the liver to make blood clotting factors. In addition to other roles, Vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7) is essential for healthy, strong bones and for supporting arterial health.*   Features: Menaquinone-7 is the most efficacious form of Vitamin K for bone and cardio health. The 45 mcg dosage is the recommendation of leading vitamin K2 researchers. This dosage was also the highest consumption level of the patients in the landmark Rotterdam study: 50% reduction in deaths from cardiovascular disease.* Menaquinone-7 is made from an all-natural food source (fermented soy). It is vegetarian (including capsule).   Benefits: Vitamin K2 helps activate (turn-on) osteocalcin.* Osteocalcin helps to build new bone matrix by aiding the binding of calcium. Vitamin K2 is important in the maintenance of bone mineral content and bone strength.* Vitamin K2 helps activate (turn-on) MGP, which is responsible for regulating the amount of calcium that accumulates in arterial walls.* Vitamin K2 supports the integrity of arterial walls through the regulation of calcium in the body.* Vitamin K2 helps support the health and elasticity of arterial walls.*     Suggested Use: Adults take one (1) vegetarian capsule daily at mealtime, or as directed by a health care professional.

Vitamin D, the “sunshine vitamin” is really a hormone but categorized as a vitamin.  This is because a deficiency is associated with the diseases rickets (bone deformities) in children and osteomalacia (poor bone mineralization leading to weak, painful bones) in adults.  The body is able to synthesize pre-vitamin D3 in the skin when exposed to sunlight.  The pre-vitamin D3 is rapidly converted into vitamin D3.  Vitamin D3 is then transported through the blood to the liver and kidney where it is converted into the hormone calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D. Only a few foods naturally contain vitamin D including: fatty fish and cod liver oil.  Fortified foods such as milk and cereal are the major dietary sources of vitamin D.   It is estimated that 40% of the U.S. population is vitamin D deficient, therefore supplementing the diet with extra vitamin D is essential for optimal health.  Numerous factors influence the skin’s synthesis of pre-vitamin D3 including, location, climate, sun exposure, skin color, age and use of sunscreen.  When you combine all of the factors that influence vitamin D synthesis with the existing widespread deficiency, vitamin D supplementation is the most efficient and convenient way to ensure optimal vitamin D intake.*   Features:   Multiple potencies based on individual requirements. Contains vitamin D-3 (cholecalciferol), a highly bioavailable form of Vitamin D. Sourced from lanolin (vegetarian source of Vitamin D). Easy to swallow soft gel capsule Gluten-free Benefits:   Vitamin D is essential for calcium and phosphorus absorption and utilization.* Stimulates osteoblast (bone producing cell) activity which helps maintain bone density and strength.* Stimulates the synthesis of osteocalcin, an important protein involved in bone formation.* Helps maintain adequate blood calcium levels which help support cellular metabolic processes, cardiovascular, and neuromuscular/neurological function.* Vitamin D is important for normal, healthy cell growth and function.* Helps support normal, healthy insulin secretion.* Vitamin D helps support healthy immune function.*

Astragalus membranaceus, more commonly known as Astragalus, or huáng qí, is an herb that has been traditionally used in Chinese Medicine for Centuries, and sometimes used through Intravenous(IV) Therapy in a hospital setting. Although there are about 2,000 varieties of Astragalus, Astragalus membranaceus, is one of the primary ones that are used for its benefits. Astragalus herb is traditionally used in its dried powdered form or as a strong decoction, made from boiling the dried root in water. The many phytochemical compounds found in specifically the Root of Astragalus, are believed to harness its various uses for potential health benefits.     Benefits:  Astragalus contains compounds & polysaccharides that may aid in boosting the immune system. In vitro studies have demonstrated that Astragalus promotes B-cell proliferation and antibody production and enhances CTL (Cytotoxic T-lymphocytes) activity. So it may suggest an immuno-stimulating effect. Contains Astragalosides (antioxidants), which support the integrity of the respiratory tract. In Chinese Medicine, one of its primary uses has been as a lung tonic, and may help in resistance against respiratory tract infections. Antioxidants found in Astragalus have been found to increase superoxide dismutase (Enzyme that helps break down potentially harmful oxygen molecules in cells) and decreasing lipid peroxide activity (Lipid Peroxidation Products depending upon their concentration, cause selective alterations in cell signaling, protein and DNA damage, and cytotoxicity, therefore potentially reducing the possibility). Astragalus has been used in Chinese Medicinal recipes for the aid of kidney disorders and its diuretic effect. Proteinuria is a condition in which abnormal amounts of protein are found in urine, a sign that the kidneys may be damaged or not functioning correctly. Astragalus was found to reduce and improve Proteinuria in several studies. May also aid in reduction of infection with individuals with decreased renal function.   Suggested Use: Take 1 Cap, 1-3 times per day or as directed by a health care professional. Label
