A masterly formula

At HSN we have created our food supplement after determining the most suitable concentrations for both vitamins.

Highly bioavailable forms

There are many forms of vitamin D and vitamin K, but they are not all the same.

Many companies market products based on vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol), as it is a cheaper alternative to vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), but do they work in the same way?

Although the biological effects are the same, vitamin D3 may be more effective than vitamin D2 according to data from the meta-analysis by Tripkovic et al., 2012.

The same applies to vitamin K: K1 (phylloquinone) is metabolised differently from vitamin K2 (menaquinone) (Wasilewski et al., 2019), which is why many people opt for the latter form.

Its longer chain length means that the half-life of the vitamin is longer (Sato et al., 2012).

Vegan formula

Our product is made with vitamin D and K extracted from natural plant sources:

•  Vitamin D3 is derived from lichen, a unique organism of non-animal origin.
•  Vitamin K2-MK7 is derived from natto, a plant-derived, non-GMO derivative of soy.

And the capsules are made with a vegetable coating agent, not gelatine, so unlike most competing products, the capsules are not made with gelatine....
