Vitamin D issue
Hi,
Few days back, I was diagnosed with low levels of vitamin D.
Then Doc, prescribed: VACALY-K2-7 tablet, once daily.
Question is, is this better than normal vitamin D3 tablets? Why K2 thing is added here? It has additional Zinc oxide, magnesium hydroxide, calcium citrate malate too.
Why I need these components, when only vitamin D deficiency is there.?
Are there any benefits or shortcomings of it?
Please suggest.
Thanks!

Please check up the name and address of the Manufacturing Company.
Is it a Start-up unit or an established Company ?
You should buy Vitamin D3 from a reputed Pharma Company and let it be pure Vitamin D3 .
