A well-formulated Vitamin K2 MK-7 supplement for children, offering effective bone and cardiovascular support in a kid-friendly flavor. Good dose for the target age group.
Dose: D:125mcg, K:120mcg, Quantity: 90
Junior D3 & K2 Peach Apricot Flavor by Zahler is designed to support the bone, heart, cardiovascular, and general health of children. The inclusion of Vitamin K2 as Menaquinone-7 (MK-7) is a significant advantage, as MK-7 is highly bioavailable and has a longer half-life compared to other forms of Vitamin K, ensuring better systemic delivery. The peach-apricot flavor is a thoughtful addition, crucial for ensuring consistent intake by children. While the product name implies D3 is included, its specific quantity isn't provided in the ingredients, which is a minor drawback for a comprehensive assessment, but the K2 component is solid for pediatric use.
- Formulated specifically for children, considering their unique nutritional needs.
- Contains Vitamin K2 as Menaquinone-7 (MK-7), the most bioavailable and effective form for systemic benefits.
- Pleasant peach-apricot flavor enhances palatability and encourages consistent intake.
- Appropriate dosage (30mcg MK-7) for supporting bone development and cardiovascular health in kids.
- The specific dosage of Vitamin D3 is not provided in the input, despite being implied by the product name.
- Price per serving is higher compared to adult K2 supplements, though reasonable for a specialized children's product.
- Limited information on other ingredients or potential allergens.

The product provides Vitamin K in the highly preferred MK-7 form, which is crucial for its bioavailability and efficacy in bone and cardiovascular health, particularly for systemic benefits.
Goals
Bone Health 85.0
The 30mcg of K2 MK-7 is a beneficial dosage for children, actively supporting calcium utilization for robust bone development and mineralization by activating osteocalcin.
Heart Health 80.0
K2 MK-7 at this dose provides good foundational support for long-term heart health in children by aiding in the activation of Matrix Gla Protein, which helps prevent arterial calcification.
Cardiovascular Support 80.0
Similar to heart health, the K2 MK-7 contributes to cardiovascular integrity by promoting arterial flexibility and inhibiting the undesirable deposition of calcium in soft tissues, starting early in life.
