About this ingredient
Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble form of vitamin K that plays an important role in normal blood clotting and bone metabolism. It helps activate certain vitamin K-dependent proteins involved in maintaining healthy bones and normal calcium-related processes.
Vitamin K2 occurs in several forms called menaquinones, with MK-4 and MK-7 being commonly used in dietary supplements. MK-4 is found in certain animal foods, while MK-7 is commonly produced through fermentation.
Vitamin K2 is often combined with vitamin D3, calcium, or magnesium in bone-health supplements. Because vitamin K can affect blood clotting, people taking anticoagulant medicines should consult a healthcare professional before using vitamin K supplements.
