Vitamin K and Cardiovascular Health
Vitamin K isn’t just one vitamin; it’s a family of fat-soluble vitamins with similar chemical structures but with different metabolic properties. Vitamin K is required for the activity of specialized proteins that control blood clotting. K2 belongs to a group of Vitamin K compounds called menaquinones, which show greater bioactivity when compared to K1, the ordinary supplement form. K2 is absorbed more completely, remains in your body longer, and delivers more benefits for your bones, blood vessels and other soft tissues.

Powerful Research Support
Several research studies have shown the need for good levels of Vitamin K2 as MK-7 in supporting cardiovascular health and in preventing development of cardiovascular disease. The Rotterdam Study completed in 2004 evaluated the relationship between dietary intake of Vitamin K2 as MK-7 and aortic calcification, heart disease, and mortality. This 10-year study of 4,807 men and women aged 55 and older showed that subjects taking Vitamin K2 throughout the study experienced a 50% reduction in risk of arterial calcification; a 50% reduction in risk of cardiovascular death; and a 25% reduction in the risk of death from any cause!

Bone and Soft Tissue Protection
Vitamin-K-dependent proteins are also found in bones and soft tissues, including osteocalcin – the protein that deposits calcium into your bones. Activation of Vitamin-K-dependent proteins occurs through carboxylation, a metabolic process that adds a molecule comprising carbon, hydrogen and oxygen to glutamate, an amino acid within the protein structure. Osteocalcin cannot perform its function of incorporating calcium into your bones unless it is activated first. So, a rise in the amount of inactive (under-carboxylated) osteocalcin circulating in your blood is regarded as a measure of Vitamin K deficiency. Doctor’s Best Vitamin K2 MK-7 with MenaQ7 can help decrease blood levels of inactive osteocalcin.
