- https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/VitaminK-Consumer/
- Vitamin K is actually a group of fat-soluble compounds. There is phylloquinone (vitamin K1) and menaquinones (vitamin K2). The most effective menaquinone is MK-7, what we use in our product.
- https://ashpublications.org/blood/article/109/8/
- This study shows MK-7 is more effective at raising vitamin K serum levels than vitamin K1
- This study shows MK-7 increases serum vitamin K levels significantly while another menaquinone, MK-4, does not
- Its most important role in the body is that it is needed for blood clotting. It also helps maintain healthy bones.
