Vitamins D and K with Sea-Iodine Life Extension 60 Caps

MK-7/K1/K2

Numerous encouraging research have led to a record number of Americans taking vitamin D supplements. Many aging people need daily vitamin D supplements ranging from 5,000 to 8,000 IU because it is practically hard to get enough of the vitamin through food alone. Most people (apart from Life Extension® members) are unaware of the crucial significance of vitamin K. It seems silly to forgo the advantages of vitamin K if one is taking larger doses of vitamin D due to health concerns. For instance, vitamin D aids in the bloodstream's ability to absorb calcium, which is crucial for maintaining bone density. The requirement for vitamin K to carry calcium from the bloodstream to the bones is less well known. Additionally, vitamin K is necessary for calcium-regulating proteins in the arteries.1-5 Together these two vitamins help maintain youthful calcium skeletal distribution while promoting vascular health.6-11Although the diet contains some vitamin K, supplementation is necessary to get the desired higher potencies. The Super Booster or Super K formulations provide many Life Extension members with long-acting vitamin K at ideal potencies. Though they don't take any additional vitamin K, a growing number of new members are requesting high-potency vitamin D.Life Extension® has developed a supplement called Vitamins D and K with Sea-IodineTM to directly treat this issue. Similarly to vitamin D and K, few Americans consume the recommended levels of iodine. Since iodized salt is often the main source of this mineral in diets, this shortfall is made worse as people attempt to reduce their salt intake. We anticipate that the iodine deficiency issue will receive more media attention.attention as new studies uncover the problems this creates. Sea-Iodine? is included in this formula to provide iodine without the harmful effects of sodium.
