K2-D3 with Astaxanthin is a one-capsule-per-day vegetarian capsule formula from Douglas Laboratories that supplies biologically active vitamin K2 as soy-free menaquinone-7 (MK-7), vitamin D3 as cholecalciferol, and astaxanthin from a supercritical CO2 extract of Haematococcus pluvialis (entire plant).
The vitamin K2 in this formula is soy-free and derived from geraniol and farnesol — plant-based precursors found in rose oil, palmarosa oil, citronella oil, and lemon grass. This nature-identical menaquinone-7 has been extensively tested for molecular identity and bioequivalence compared to menaquinone-7 from fermented soybeans (natto), and is supplied in the all-trans form for full biological activity.
Astaxanthin is obtained via supercritical CO2 extraction from the entire plant of Haematococcus pluvialis, a microalgae recognized as a natural source of this carotenoid.
K2-D3 with Astaxanthin is indicated for individuals seeking support for blood vessel health and bone health, with the added systemic antioxidant support of astaxanthin.
