VitaMK7® (Vitamin K2 as MK7). MK7 is an active form of Vitamin K2. Vitamin K2 is essential for correct calcium metabolism: it keeps calcium where it belongs - in the bones and out of the blood vessels. Calcium in the blood builds up as hard deposits (plaques) on the inside lining of the blood vessels, leading to hardened and narrowed arteries which can result in stroke or heart attack. Recent studies show that vitamin K2 may be more effective than even chelation therapy at reversing calcium build up in the blood vessels, thereby reducing heart disease.

Co-Enzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like compound present in virtually all cells and its primary functions seem to include antioxidant activity, a membrane stabiliser and as a cofactor in many metabolic pathways, particularly in the production of ATP, important for cellular energy production. It is also recommended for individuals using “statin” cholesterol medicines to prevent co-enzyme Q10 deficiency. Co-EnzymeQ10 helps to maintain and support cardiovascular health.

Magnesium Glycinate is a highly bioavailable and absorbable form of magnesium. Magnesium is an essential mineral for healthy heart and muscle function. Up to 75% of the population are magnesium deficient. Magnesium is also useful for brain and nervous system function, and helps relieve anxiety. Magnesium is involved in energy supply and may be of benefit for athletes or individuals suffering from chronic fatigue. The following groups of people are at particular risk of low magnesium levels and should supplement with magnesium: diabetics, the elderly and people who drink a lot of alcohol.
Vitamin D3 is a fat-soluble vitamin and is produced in the skin through sunlight exposure. Although sunlight exposure results in some vitamin D production, recent research shows that not enough vitamin D is produced this way, especially with most individuals now staying out of the sun or applying sun-block which dramatically reduces vitamin D production. Vitamin D supplementation is important to maintain healthy levels of calcium by increasing calcium absorption and reducing urinary calcium loss. In addition to maintaining healthy bones and teeth, vitamin D also protects against heart disease and plays a key role in improving immunity
