Vitamin D3 and K2 Capsules - 4000 IU Vitamin D & 100mcg Vitamin K MK7 - Boosted with Coconut MCTs

• WHY VITAMIN K2 IS IMPORTANT WITH HIGH DOSES OF VITAMIN D3 - Vitamin D in high doses greatly enhances levels of available calcium within the body. However if the body doesn't have the correct balance of K2, which is essential for osteocalcin carboxylation, calcium may not be delivered to the bones, which can then become porous, and may also be deposited in the arteries, which can become calcified and increase the risk of coronary heart disease.

• BOOSTED WITH COCONUT OIL FOR HIGHER ABSORPTION - Vitamin D is fat soluble, meaning it requires fats to be absorbed by the gut. Consequently, it's a good idea to supplement with a meal containing fats. To further maximise bioavailability, we at Oxford Origins formulate with coconut oil powder, which contains LCT and MCT fats. This ensures our customers the greatest chance of positive results with supplementation.

This potent supplement is ideal for individuals experiencing Vitamin D deficiency or low levels, aiming to deliver significant therapeutic advantages. Affordably priced, our premier Vitamin D3 supplement represents an economical and effortless solution to enhance your Vitamin D intake.

Which type of Vitamin D is utilized in our product?

At OO, we exclusively use Vitamin D3, the form of this nutrient that the body prefers for superior absorption and effectiveness. This is the identical form produced by our skin when exposed to sunlight, ensuring it's quickly and efficiently absorbed compared to other variants.

What benefits does Vitamin D3 offer?

Vitamin D3 is vital for maintaining a healthy, well-regulated immune system and is essential for bone health, aiding the body in calcium absorption crucial for robust bones and muscle functionality. This is especially critical for the elderly to mitigate fall risks and for the healthy growth and bone development in children.

Who might be deficient in Vitamin D?

During the darker months from October to March, everyone in the UK faces a risk of vitamin D deficiency due to insufficient sunlight for natural vitamin D synthesis in the skin, and the challenge of obtaining adequate amounts from diet alone. Older individuals, those with minimal sun exposure, and people with darker skin tones are particularly susceptible to deficiency.

How much Vitamin D is advisable?

While the UK government suggests a minimum daily intake of 10mcg (400iu) of Vitamin D for everyone above one year of age, the Endocrine Society recommends 1000iu for optimal therapeutic effects. Vitamin D toxicity is exceptionally rare, with the UK's upper safety limit at 4000iu daily. Higher doses have been well-tolerated, emphasizing the safety of vitamin D consumption. Regular vitamin D level testing is advised when using this supplement.

What is the timeframe for experiencing benefits?

Symptoms linked to vitamin D deficiency, such as muscle discomfort, frequent colds, weakened immune response, and bone frailty, generally improve once vitamin D levels reach the normal range. The duration needed to correct deficiencies varies based on the initial vitamin D levels, highlighting the importance of consistent testing. For moderate to severe deficiencies, recovery could take 8 to 16 weeks.

What to expect when beginning vitamin D3 supplementation?

It may take a few weeks of consistent vitamin D supplementation to observe a rise in the body's vitamin D levels, with a focus on supporting bone health.

Is there an optimal time to take D3?

Although research shows that the timing of vitamin D3 supplementation doesn't significantly affect its efficacy, maintaining a consistent routine is key. Whether in the morning or evening, regularity is essential for ensuring a continuous supply of vitamin D3, aiding in achieving and sustaining optimal levels.

Understanding vitamin D versus D3:

Vitamin D encompasses both D2 (plant-derived) and D3 (animal-derived) forms. D3, also synthesized by the body in sunlight, is proven to be more effective at increasing vitamin D levels in the bloodstream, making it the preferred choice for supplements.

Sources of vitamin D3:

Vitamin D3 is found in specific foods like fatty fish (salmon, mackerel), egg yolks, and liver, as well as in fortified items such as orange juice and milk. Given the difficulty in obtaining sufficient levels from diet alone, supplementation might be necessary.
