Frequently Asked Questions

• Why is vitamin K included in Isotonix Vitamin D with K2?

  Some studies have concluded that vitamin K2 does not interfere with anticoagulant medications; however, most products containing vitamin K (including K1 and/or K2) warn users taking anticoagulants not to take the product. If you are currently taking warfarin or another anticoagulant medication, you should consult your physician before taking any product containing vitamin K1 or K2.

• Is it safe to take more than one serving of this product daily?

  One serving daily of Isotonix Vitamin D with K2 is recommended. Check with your physician before taking additional daily servings of this product.

• Is there a toxicity level for vitamin D?

  Studies have shown that healthy adults taking 125 mcg of vitamin D daily for extended periods rarely experience toxicity, as long as blood calcium and vitamin D levels are monitored. Vitamin D toxicity is very rare and usually occurs with ingesting much higher doses (more than 250 mcg per day) over long periods.

• What benefits does magnesium provide for the body?

  With its involvement in supporting over 300 enzyme reactions, magnesium plays roles in many aspects of health. Regarding to bone health, magnesium is an important component of the mineralized part of bones and supports the normal metabolism of calcium and potassium in adults. Magnesium works together with calcium and vitamin D to help keep bones strong and support bone mineral density. Magnesium also supports muscle development and movement and the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles. Studies clearly demonstrate the effects of supplemental magnesium on muscular health. Adequate magnesium levels are also important for cardiovascular health. Studies show magnesium supports a regular heart rythm, thus promoting a healthy heart. Additionally, magnesium helps maintain normal blood pressure and supports normal protein synthesis. As such, there is evidence that magnesium helps maintain normal blood sugar levels.

• How much magnesium should I be getting, and why do I need a magnesium supplement versus getting it from my normal diet?

  The recommended daily intake for adults, established by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences, states that adult males between the ages of 19 and 30 should be receiving 400 mg of magnesium daily. Adult females of the same age should receive 310 mg daily. For older males, the recommendation is 420 mg daily, while older females should consume 320 mg daily. Daily lifestyle factors and poor dietary choices adversely affect the amount of magnesium we are ingesting. Foods rich in magnesium include whole grains, nuts and green vegetables, which are potent sources of magnesium because of their chlorophyll content. Meats, starches, dairy products and refined and processed foods — which make up a large portion of the typical diet in today’s society — contain low amounts of magnesium.

• What is the Isotonix delivery system, and how does it work?

  Isotonic, which means “same pressure,” bears the same chemical resemblance of the body’s blood, plasma, and tears. All fluids in the body have a certain concentration, referred to as osmotic pressure. The body’s common osmotic pressure, which is isotonic, allows consistent maintenance of body tissues. For a substance to be absorbed and used in the body’s metabolism, it must be transported in an isotonic state. When an isotonic substance enters the body, it will be absorbed into the bloodstream rapidly. Isotonix dietary supplements are delivered in an isotonic solution, allowing nutrients to pass directly into the small intestine and be rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream. With Isotonix products, little nutritive value is lost, making the absorption of nutrients highly efficient while delivering maximum results.
