Osteo Px - 60 Caps
- Osteo Px delivers key supportive nutrients to enhance calcium absorption from both dietary sources and supplements to support bone health.
- This formula provides nutrients to balance high dose vitamin D3. It includes vitamin A plus the highest dose of K2 as MK-7 for optimal calcium absorption and to help prevent misguided arterial calcium deposits.
- K2 and vitamin D3 support osteocalcin activity (the calcium-binding protein that acts as a biomarker for bone formation).
- Boron and magnesium support optimal bone health.
- One per day dosing; add a moderate dose of your favorite form of calcium if dietary intake is not adequate.

Formulation Features
Osteocalcin is a calcium-binding protein in the blood that acts as a biochemical marker for bone formation. Serum osteocalcin is measured via a lab test, typically ordered for women past menopause. Osteocalcin relies on vitamins D3 and K2, especially in the form of MK-7. These nutrients support healthy bone metabolism via their supportive relationship with osteocalcin and calcium. K2 supports vitamin D with calcium uptake, safely guiding it to the bone.
K2 is available in supplement form as MK-7 and MK-4. MK-7 is the more bioavailable and active form of K2, which can be dosed once daily, making it the superior form of vitamin K2. MK-4 has a short half-life, so it requires multiple doses throughout the day.
Vitamins A, D3, and K2 are fat-soluble nutrients that work in concert to perform a balancing act. Vitamin D enhances calcium absorption, but in high doses and unchecked, it can potentially increase the risk of depositing calcium into the arteries. Co-factor vitamins K2 and A balance high levels of vitamin D3 by preventing calcium oversaturation and reducing the risk of misguided arterial calcium deposits. Osteo Px provides vitamins K2, A & D3 in moderate doses for optimal balance.
