Vitamin K2 Capsules 500µg
MK-7 All-Trans High-Dose & Vegan

Vitamin K

Vitamin K occurs naturally in the forms of vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) and vitamin K2 (menaquinone). Phylloquinone is mainly found in plants, while menaquinone, which appears to exhibit higher bioactivity, can be produced by gut bacteria. Some fermented foods, such as sauerkraut or natto, are also rich sources of vitamin K2.

Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 activates a series of special proteins which play a role in important metabolic processes, including blood clotting as well as calcium transportation and utilisation. Most organisations do not consider vitamin K1 and K2 separately and, as such, there is limited information on the benefits of vitamin K2 specifically.

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

• Normal blood clotting
• The maintenance of normal bones

Vitamin K2 and Vitamin D

Vitamin D and vitamin K2 both play key roles in calcium metabolism. Together, they regulate the cells which form and break down bones as well as the important transport molecules which ensure the correct utilisation of calcium.

Recommended Dosage

Take 1 capsule daily with food and 200ml water.

Daily Requirements

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

Note: Recent research has shown that vitamin K1 and K2 have significantly different effect profiles. Given this new evidence, care must be taken when treating these forms as one. Though the need for vitamin K2 has not yet been scientifically proven, complete carboxylation of matrix GLA protein and osteocalcin – the central task of vitamin K2 – can only be achieved from doses of about 100µg per day.

Food Supplement

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