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.*

In research supported by the National Institute of Health, the theory as to why Calcium Citrate shows superior absorption to Calcium Carbonate is elucidated in an excerpt from the study:  Comparison of the absorption of calcium carbonate and calcium citrate after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass "Several studies have shown that the absorption of calcium carbonate is more dependent on gastric acid secretion than calcium citrate [31–36]. A previous study in healthy, postmenopausal women with varying degrees of gastric acid secretion reported a 2.5-fold higher intestinal calcium absorption following a single test load of calcium citrate than calcium carbonate [37]."  Published online 2009 May 13. doi: 10.1007/s11695-009-9850-6   The process of building and maintaining bone structure involves numerous biochemical and physiological processes. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts are the two primary types of bone cells involved in maintaining skeletal structure. Osteoblasts are responsible for bone mineralization (building new bone). Osteoclasts are responsible for secreting acid and enzymes that help dissolve “old” bone tissue into calcium and other components, some of which may be reused by the body. The balance of building and breaking down bone involves a complex interplay between various nutrients, hormones, and other biochemicals. Our Calcium Citrate formula with Vitamin D is designed to provide the structural components, as well as help support the complex processes involved in building and maintaining strong, healthy bone structure.†   Features Provides calcium as citrate. Contains added Vitamin D for its role in supporting healthy bone structure.†   Benefits Promotes bone growth, density, and strength.† Calcium has been approved by the FDA for the prevention of osteoporosis.† Calcium citrate is a highly bioavailable form of calcium for supporting the normal, healthy structure of bone tissue.† Vitamin D helps support calcium absorption and reduces the amount of calcium lost from bone (bone resorption). Vitamin D plays many important roles in the body, several of which involve supporting bone health.†   LABEL

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.

1 FL OZ. (30 mL) Liquid Vitamin D3 for Optimal Wellness* Bone, Immune, and Cardiovascular Support* Vegan D3 from Organic Algae Natural Orange Flavor Superior fat-soluble absorption  Liquid Sunshine! The Power of Bold A complete 3-In-1 formula Bold D3-K2-A features an organic, vegan form of Liquid Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) that is sustainably sourced from algae rather than from Lanolin, Mushroom or Lichen.  With Vitamin K2 and Vitamin A, we combine three critically needed fat soluble vitamins in one great tasting, highly absorbable blend. Do you know where your Vitamin D3 comes from? Global demand for Vitamin D3 has greatly strained current supply chains.  Most Vitamin D3 is made from lanolin, (derived from sheep's wool), which is facing global shortages.  Lichen, another source of D3, takes decades to re-grow and is not sustainable in the longer term.  Vitamin D from mushrooms is in the form of D2 - ergocalciferol, not D3 – cholecalciferol and nowhere near as biologically effective.  Recent studies show that Vitamin D3 may be 87% more effective than D2 at raising and maintaining serum levels of Vitamin D.  Bold Botanica's Liquid Vitamin D3 is chemically identical to animal-origin D3, but is sourced from 100% sustainable and scalable plant material, produced from non-GMO, certified organic algae! Bold Botanica’s D3-K2-A also contains MK-7, a more stable and absorbable form of Vitamin K2, which interacts synergistically with Vitamin D and is important in helping to balance calcium distribution.  We complete this unique formula with Vitamin A, an often greatly overlooked fat soluble Vitamin that is also critical for healthy immune system function.  Recent research shows that compounds in Vitamin A play a critical role in enabling Vitamin D to do its job effectively. * Bold Botanica’s D3-K2-A -- did we mention that it tastes great! Naturally flavored with organic essential oils of orange and lime, and subtly sweetened with monk fruit extract, you'll enjoy taking each dose. Suggested Usage: Daily: Adults – ½  mL or approximately 20 drops Product Ingredients: Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate 3,000 IU), Vitamin D3 (VegD3® Cholecalciferol from organic algae, 2,500 IU), Vitamin K2 (K2Vital® all trans menaquinone MK-7), organic MCT oil (coconut derived), luo han guo (monk fruit) extract, organic orange and lime peel essential oil.
