Vegan Vitamin K2 all-trans MK-7
200µg Capsules

Vitamin K

Vitamin K is found in nature as vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) and vitamin K2 (menaquinone), with vitamin K2 appearing to be the more active of the two forms. Phylloquinone is mainly found in plants, while menaquinone is produced by some human intestinal bacteria or is found in foods fermented by microorganisms, such as sauerkraut or the Japanese dish nattō.

Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 activates a range of special proteins in the body that play a role in important metabolic processes, including the transport and utilisation of calcium, blood clotting, the regulation of cell division, cell differentiation, cell migration and important repair processes in various vessels and organs. As far as their effects on the body, virtually every health authority currently treats the vitamins of the K group as one. Accordingly, statements released for vitamin K1 are also attributed to vitamin K2.

According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), vitamin K contributes to:

• normal blood clotting
• the maintenance of normal bones

Vitamin K2 All-Trans MK-7 from Norway

Vitamin K2 exists in different forms, each of which has a different level of efficacy. Vitamin K2 MK-7 is today considered by far the most effective form of K2. Since vitamin molecules take different chemical forms (the so-called cis-trans isomers of vitamin K2), there are enormous differences even between different vitamin K2 MK-7 active substances. It is believed that only the trans forms can be utilised by the body.

Our original K2VITAL® vitamin K2 is one of the few commercial supplements that consists of 100% highly effective all-trans MK-7, guaranteed by Norwegian laboratory testing.

Vitamin K2 & Vitamin D

Vitamin K2 is the most important cofactor of vitamin D in the regulation of calcium metabolism. Together, the two vitamins control bone-building as well as breaking down cells and important transport molecules that ensure the correct utilisation of calcium.

Directions

Take 1 capsule (200µg Vitamin K2 MK-7) with 200ml water at mealtimes daily.

Daily Requirements

Although the German Nutrition Society recommends a total intake of at least 70µg vitamin K per day, there are currently no recommendations for vitamin K2 specifically.

Note: Recent research shows that vitamin K1 and vitamin K2 have distinctly different profiles in terms of their effects. Vitamin K2 requirements have not yet been scientifically established, but are likely higher than those listed by the DGE. A complete carboxylation of Matrix GLA protein (MGP) and osteocalcin, which is the main function of vitamin K2, can be observed in doses starting from 100µg / day.

Do not exceed the recommended dose. Food supplements cannot replace a balanced, varied diet and healthy lifestyle. Keep out of reach of young children.
