Vitamin D3/K2 Drops Vegan (1,000 IU)

Anyone who takes care of their body should not forget about Vitamin D3 and K2. Because they are an unbeatable team when it comes to your health. Vitamin D3, often called the sunshine vitamin, is produced in your skin once you get some sunlight. Vitamin K2, on the other hand, is a quiet helper from foods like cheese, yogurt, or kimchi, ensuring that calcium in your body ends up exactly where it should – in your bones and teeth. Together, Vitamin D3 and K2 not only promote strong bones, but also support your heart and immune system. Perfect for anyone who wants to strengthen themselves from the inside out. Especially on gray days when the sun is on vacation.

But what makes Vitamin D3 and K2 the power couple? Essentially, they’re like Batman and Robin: strong on their own, but unbeatable together. Vitamin D3 ensures that your body can absorb calcium better, but without K2, the calcium doesn’t know where to go. The result? K2 takes the lead and directs the calcium to where it’s needed – in your bones and teeth. At the same time, it keeps your blood vessels free from calcification, as this would be more likely to occur without K2. The two work harmoniously hand in hand to keep you healthy all around. With a combined supplement, you have the perfect duo solution for your health.

Vitamin D3 is truly a real all-rounder when it comes to its involvement in processes in the body! On the one hand, it helps absorb calcium from food, on the other hand, it strengthens your bones and also ensures that your muscles and immune system can work at full capacity. If you often feel tired, have bone or muscle pain, or get sick more frequently, a deficiency could be the cause. Especially in the winter months, when the sun is scarce, it's important to take in Vitamin D3 (and K2) through food or supplements. With the right amount of 800 to 2000 IU (international units) per day, you can give your body the support it deserves – and needs. You’ll also quickly notice that it has a positive effect on your mood!

Vitamin K2 is the “King of Organization” in your body – it directs calcium to the right places and keeps it away from your arteries. Sounds smart, right? It activates special proteins like osteocalcin, which are responsible for strong bones, and protects your heart by preventing calcium deposits in the blood vessels. However, if you’re not a fan of fermented foods like kimchi, the intake of natural Vitamin K2 from food is quite limited. That’s exactly why most vitamin D3 supplements also contain K2. Of course, the one from Vetain does too! And as with all the products in our shop, you can be sure that our vitamin D3-K2 supplement is vegan.

At Vetain, Vitamin D3 and K2 are produced in the same innovative and environmentally friendly way as everything we do, so that people with a vegan lifestyle can support their health. Vegan D3 mostly comes from lichens, a symbiotic combination of fungi and algae, which naturally produce Vitamin D3. Lichens are sustainable because they grow slowly and can be harvested in controlled environments. Vegan Vitamin K2 is often obtained through a fermentation process using bacteria, similar to the production of natto. No animal products are used, and purity is ensured through careful processing. Thanks to these methods, vegan supplements not only provide the same benefits as traditional products but can also be taken with a clear conscience. This way, you benefit from the synergistic effects of D3 and K2 while supporting a cruelty-free and sustainable lifestyle.

Vitamin D3 is important for your health, but too much of a good thing can be harmful – as always, the dose makes the poison. An overdose occurs only when very high amounts are taken over a long period, usually more than 10,000 IU daily, without medical supervision. Since D3 is fat-soluble, the body stores it instead of simply excreting excess amounts – and that’s when it becomes toxic. The main problem with an overdose is called hypercalcemia, or too high calcium levels in the blood. This can lead to symptoms like nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and frequent urination. In the long term, kidney stones, vascular calcification, and damage to organs like the heart and kidneys can occur. Always follow the recommended dosage instructions and regularly check your vitamin D levels. But here’s the good news: when you combine vitamin D3 with K2, you can further reduce the risk, as K2 helps transport calcium to the right places.

Taking Vitamin D3 and K2 couldn’t be simpler. Since both are fat-soluble, you should ideally take them with a fatty meal (whether you have D3/K2 drops, tablets, or capsules) – this significantly improves absorption. Many people swear by taking them in the morning or afternoon to avoid disrupting sleep. You can also combine the vitamins with omega-3 fatty acids or magnesium to optimize their effects. The key is consistency: regular intake will yield the best long-term results.

Why complicate things when it can be simple? Combination supplements of Vitamin D3 and K2 save you time and are perfectly dosed in sync with each other. Instead of taking two different products, you get the ideal dosage in a convenient capsule or drop. By the way: The best Vitamin D3 and K2 supplements are made from natural D3 (e.g., from lanolin) and K2 as MK-7, which has a particularly long-lasting effect. Many products also include MCT oil for better absorption.
