Abstract
Vitamins D and K are fat soluble nutrients that, although classified as vitamins, are hormonal in nature. And while the relationship between Vitamins D&K has been understood in the realm of bone metabolism, their importance in immunology and use in immune modulation are lesser known. In this CE event, we will discuss the biochemistry and immunology of Vitamins D&K and their places in clinical medicine.
Learning Objectives:
- Define the structure and function of Vitamin D
- Define the structure and function of Vitamin K
- Define the immunology of vitamins D&K
- Describe appropriate clinical use of each
CME Outline:

- Drug vs OTC forms of vitamin K
- Immunology of Vitamins D&K
- Prescribing of various forms of each
