VITAMIN K2

Many people supplement with Vitamin D but what you may not know is that Vitamin D needs a partner to deliver its health benefits. That partner is K2. D helps absorb calcium, but it needs K2 to make sure calcium is bonded into the bones and not causing blood clots. More benefits of K2 include: Less calcification of the arteries which may decrease the risk of heart disease, reducing risk for bone fractures and anti-inflammatory attributes.  Nature Made, Smarter Vitamins, Vital Nutrients, Her Vital Way
