Subject: What is the Vitamin D/Vitamin K Connection?
New research suggest Vitamin K may be far more necessary than originally thought. Our bodies produce Vitamin D through exposure to the sun's rays, as well has consumption of certain foods. Vitamin K assists Vitamin D in handling calcium for out bodies, meaning they are both needed for good health in your bones and teeth. However, many people have trouble getting the right balance of these two.
Key Takeaways:
- Vitamin K works in synergy with vitamin D, and many experts are advising that individuals should always take vitamin K when supplementing with vitamin D, particularly if also taking calcium supplements.
- Vitamin D is a very important nutrient for proper body function. It is unique in that our skin has the ability to make it from sunlight.
- In addition to sunlight exposure, you can obtain vitamin D in limited amounts from your diet, though only a few foods naturally contain it.
