- Vitamin K2 in the MK-4 (menaquinone-4) form is a biologically active form of vitamin K. The beneficial role of vitamin K2 in the synthesis of several blood-clotting factors is well known. However, scientific research has shown that vitamin K2 and the proteins that depend on it (e.g. osteocalcin) are vital for bone and blood vessel health.
- Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting and the maintenance of normal bones.
- In terms of its role in the bones, vitamin K acts as a “traffic controller” for calcium. In other words, it directs calcium toward the bones. This reduces calcium deposits in the blood vessels and helps prevent cardiovascular disease.
The dietary supplement Now Vitamin K2 is enriched with 300 mg of Alfalfa, a rich source of natural vitamin K. Alfalfa sprouts are rich in chlorophyll, vitamins, proteins, and are one of the richest foods in minerals.
