Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c by Biodesign – Bone Support Vitamin D3 and K2 Capsules
Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 capsules by Biodesign combine vitamin D3 and natural vitamin K2 in a 100-capsule bottle for adults. Each capsule supplies 125 mcg (5,000 IU) of D3 and 130 mcg of K2 as MK-7, pairing two nutrients with different roles in maintaining healthy bones.
This is a higher-strength D3 formula, not a calcium supplement. It suits an individualized supplement plan in which a healthcare professional has assessed vitamin D intake and the need for additional K2. The natural K2 is derived from fermented soy natto, an important detail when reviewing ingredient sources.
Key Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c Benefits
- Supports calcium absorption through vitamin D3, helping the body use calcium supplied by food rather than supplying calcium itself.
- Helps maintain healthy bones and teeth by supporting the normal mineralization processes that depend on adequate vitamin D.
- Provides vitamin K2 MK-7 to help activate proteins involved in normal bone metabolism and calcium binding.
How Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c Works
Vitamin D3 and K2 contribute at different steps in calcium handling. The body converts D3 into active vitamin D, which signals intestinal cells to absorb dietary calcium. K2 helps enzymes activate vitamin K-dependent proteins, including osteocalcin in bone. This division of roles explains the combination without suggesting that either vitamin replaces dietary calcium. Bone maintenance also depends on adequate nutrition and appropriate physical activity; adding D3 and K2 is one part of that broader foundation.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Vitamin D3: Supports intestinal calcium absorption after conversion to its active form. It helps regulate the transport processes that move calcium from food into the body, making it relevant to bone mineralization. The D3 in this formula is cholecalciferol; its strength warrants professional review of total vitamin D intake.
- Vitamin K2 (MK-7): Helps activate osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium within bone tissue. MK-7 is menaquinone-7, a form of vitamin K2 that contributes to this normal protein-activation process. Vitamin K also participates in normal blood clotting, so anticoagulant use requires particular attention before adding this combination.
Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c Is Formulated For
- Adults whose healthcare professional recommends a higher-strength vitamin D supplement combined with natural K2.
- People comparing capsule formulas for calcium absorption and bone maintenance who want both nutrients in one serving.
- Adults who have reviewed other vitamin D sources, medication use, and the fermented soy natto source of the K2.

Additional precautions: Each capsule's 5,000 IU vitamin D exceeds the adult daily upper intake level of 4,000 IU; use this strength under healthcare professional guidance. Excess vitamin D can raise blood calcium and cause nausea, vomiting, weakness, excessive thirst or urination, kidney stones, and serious kidney or heart problems. Review total vitamin D intake, thiazide diuretics, statins, steroids, orlistat, bile acid sequestrants, and prolonged antibiotic use with your clinician or pharmacist because these medicines can affect vitamin D or K use or interact with supplementation. Anyone with a soy allergy should review the fermented soy natto source with a healthcare professional before use.
Frequently Asked Questions About Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c
What are the benefits of Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c?
Biodesign combines 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 with 130 mcg of vitamin K2 as MK-7 per capsule. D3 supports the absorption of calcium from food, while K2 helps activate osteocalcin, a calcium-binding protein in bone. These complementary nutrient roles support normal bone maintenance. The formula does not supply calcium as a Supplement Facts nutrient, so it does not replace calcium-rich foods. Its higher vitamin D strength should fit a healthcare professional's assessment of your needs and total intake.
Who should take Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c?
This capsule formula is intended for adults only, particularly those whose healthcare professional recommends combining higher-strength D3 with K2. Each capsule contains 125 mcg of D3, so it is not interchangeable with a lower-dose daily vitamin D product. Discuss your other supplements and medications before starting. The manufacturer specifically advises consultation during pregnancy or nursing, with a medical condition, or when taking prescription medication. The natural K2 comes from fermented soy natto, which also matters when reviewing allergies.
Are there any side effects of taking Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c?
K2 (MK-7) may interfere with anticoagulant medication ie Coumadin (warfarin). Consult with your healthcare professional before taking if you are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition or are taking prescription medication. Excess vitamin D can raise blood calcium and cause nausea, vomiting, weakness, thirst, excessive urination, or kidney problems. This capsule's 5,000 IU exceeds the adult daily upper intake level of 4,000 IU, so professional guidance is important. Review medication interactions and the fermented soy natto source before use; see Additional precautions above.
How does Vitamin D3 5000 Plus MK-7 100c support overall health?
The formula contributes two nutrients involved in normal calcium handling rather than supplying a broad multivitamin or a calcium supplement. Vitamin D3 helps the body absorb calcium needed for healthy bones and teeth. K2 helps activate proteins involved in normal bone metabolism, and vitamin K also has an essential role in blood clotting. These functions explain why the nutrients appear together, but they do not make a higher dose appropriate for everyone. Adequate dietary calcium, balanced nutrition, and individualized dosing remain important.
