Dr. Weston A. Price wrote about Activator-X in his book Nutrition and Physical degeneration which he found to be an important vitamin found mainly in animal products, particularly grass-fed animals. A decade later a researcher isolated Vitamin K1 and also K2, which is most likely Activator-X. Since then it has been found that vitamin K2 to be of importance in many metabolic processes and in particular for Calcium absorption and bone health.1,2 It’s role in this, in combination with vitamin D3 and Magnesium has become widely accepted.
Most western diets are low in vitamin K2 thus supplementation, (particularly for vegans), can be very useful. Our formula has a plant-based D3 which makes this product suitable for vegans.
Vitamin D3 helps with regular absorption of calcium from food and a normal blood calcium level. It also aids the process of cell renewal and supports the body’s immune system. Vitamin K2 ensures that calcium gets to where it needs to be in the bones. This process is reinforced by the presence of Magnesium, which is used in bone growth and to keep bones and teeth strong.
The combination of vitamin D3 and K2 with magnesium increases calcium absorption in the bones, contributes to regular energy levels, and has a positive impact on the function of the nerve system.
