Analysis

The record lists lichen-derived vitamin D3 at 62.5 mcg and phytonadione at 100 mcg. Those two entries could support a coherent formula if the remaining label information were trustworthy.

Vitamin K2 is shown as 1,600 mg with no chemical form, an amount that is not credible for a normal supplement. A zero-quantity lipase entry adds further evidence that the supplied label data may be corrupted or incorrectly mapped.

Do not infer a corrected K2 dose from the product name or surrounding entries. The original package and manufacturer documentation need verification before any capsule is used.

Who is it for
  • No one until the original label is verified
  • Users able to obtain manufacturer-confirmed dosing
  • Clinicians reviewing a corrected product record
Best for
  • Label verification before purchase
  • Corrected-record review
  • Avoidance until dosing is confirmed

Pros

  • Identifies lichen-derived vitamin D3
  • Clearly lists vitamin K1 as phytonadione
  • Uses a one-capsule serving
  • Combines D3 with vitamin K in concept

Cons

  • Lists an implausible 1,600 mg K2 amount
  • Does not identify the K2 form
  • Includes a zero-quantity lipase entry
  • Cannot be safely assessed from supplied data

Warnings

  • Do not use the product based on this record; verify the original label because the stated K2 amount is implausible.
  • Vitamin K can oppose warfarin and related vitamin K antagonists.
  • The 62.5 mcg vitamin D amount should still be counted toward total intake if the corrected product is used.

Nutrient quality

52 Moderate impact

Lichen-derived vitamin D3 is useful, while the vitamin K2 form is unspecified. Vitamin D3 and vitamin K1 are meaningful, but the vitamin K2 entry is not credible as written.

Ingredient transparency

60 Moderate impact

Amounts are listed, but the implausible vitamin K2 value and undosed lipase make the label unreliable. Inactive capsule ingredients are not supplied.

Customer satisfaction

62 Moderate impact

The supplied average indicates generally favorable aggregate satisfaction. No detailed experience reports are available to identify repeated complaints or confirm perceived benefits.

Value for money

29 Situational impact

Unreliable label data and an undosed enzyme do not justify the premium cost. Serving value is weak for a formula that requires label verification.

Vitamin D · 62.5 mcgVitamin K · 1600 mg

Vitamin D3 and vitamins K1 and K2 form a logical combination for calcium handling and skeletal support. The D3 amount is clearly shown, but the K2 subtype is missing and the listed K2 amount is extraordinarily high.

The package should be checked before use because the reported K2 quantity may reflect a label or data error. Vitamin K can counteract warfarin and related vitamin K antagonist medicines, so users of those drugs need clinician-guided consistency.

Vitamin K2 is relevant to calcium handling in blood vessels, while vitamin D3 provides a complementary calcium-regulation pathway. The label does not identify the K2 subtype, which limits confidence in absorption and active quality.

The listed K2 amount is extraordinarily high and may reflect a label-data error, so the package amount should be confirmed before use. Vitamin K can counteract warfarin and related vitamin K antagonists.

Vitamin D3 and vitamin K have a relevant calcium-management rationale for arterial health. The listed 1,600 mg K2 amount is extraordinarily high and should be verified directly on the package before use.

The K2 subtype is not identified, so absorption and evidence alignment cannot be judged. Vitamin K can counteract warfarin and related vitamin K antagonists, making clinician-guided consistency essential for users of those medicines.

Vitamin K · 1600 mgVitamin D · 62.5 mcg

Vitamin D3 with vitamin K targets calcium absorption and placement, but the K2 subtype is not identified. The reported K2 amount is extraordinarily high and should be confirmed on the physical label before use.

The formula does not provide calcium, magnesium, or collagen. People using warfarin or another vitamin K antagonist need clinician-guided consistency because this vitamin K formula can change anticoagulant control.

The label separates K1 from K2 but does not name MK-4 or MK-7, so absorption quality and effective MK-7 dosing cannot be verified. The listed K2 amount is extraordinarily high and should be confirmed on the package before use. Vitamin K can counteract warfarin and related vitamin K antagonists, making clinician-guided consistency important for users of those medicines.
