NOW combines two nutrients extensively researched for their contribution to the health of bones, teeth and the cardiovascular system. Vitamin D3 promotes Calcium transport and absorption. Recent studies indicate that Vitamin D3 may play a role in proper insulin action and glucose metabolism and has an important function within the immune system. Vitamin K is critical for the formation of a healthy, strong bone matrix. Vitamin K’s role in arterial health resolves around its ability to support proper Calcium metabolism in vascular structures. Vitamin K2 is a readily active and biologically available form of Vitamin K.

Vitamin C deficiency is associated with a higher risk of mortality from CVD and that vitamin C may slightly improve endothelial function and lipid profiles in some groups, especially those with low plasma vitamin C levels. Vitamin C, traditionally associated with scurvy, is an important nutrient for maintaining bone health. It is essential in the production of collagen in bone matrix. It also scavenges free radicals detrimental to bone health. Vitamin C improves immune function, and facilitates enteral uptake of nonheme iron, reduction of folic acid intermediates and synthesis of collagen (wound healing), cortisol, catecholamines and carnitine. Vitamin C depletion may occur scurvy, long-term complications such as increase cardiovascular and neoplasic risks or cataract.
