Is there any conclusion on this?  I have seen people say take them together (some are even sold together) and I have seen them say take them separately.

 

To be fair, they say you should take tocopherols and tocotrienols separately, but companies sell them together.

I don't know about needing to take them at the exact same time. But if you increase your calcium intake, vitamin K can definitely help reduce or avoid any calcification in your arteries.

 

So far, two human intervention studies in healthy populations have investigated the combined effect of vitamins D and K on vascular function and calcification [57, 58]. In post-menopausal women after 3 years of supplementation (1000 μg/day vitamin K₁ + 320 IU vitamin D), the vitamin D + K group maintained vessel wall characteristics of the carotid artery, whereas the control group and the vitamin D-only group significantly worsened over 3 years of follow-up [57].
