Mechanism of Action

Phylloquinone is often called vitamin K1. Phylloquinone is fat soluble and stable in air and moisture. However, it degrades in sunlight. It is found naturally in a wide variety of green plants. Vitamin K is needed for the post translational modication of certain proteins, mostly required for blood coagulation. Vitamin K2 is necessary for the activation of osteocalcin, a protein that transports and integrates calcium into bone to ensure a healthy skeleton. Incorporating calcium into the bone matrix means that less calcium is available for harmful deposits in soft body tissues. Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) is essential for normal bone growth & development and to maintain bone density. It also helps our body to utilize both Calcium & Phosphorus
