Doctor's Best Natural Vitamin K2 MK7 Food Supplement with MenaQ7 – 45 mcg, 180 Vegan Capsules

Understanding Vitamin K2 MK-7

Discover Doctor'S Best Natural — Vitamin K exists in two main forms: K1 (phylloquinone) from leafy greens, and K2 (menaquinone) from fermented foods and animal sources. K2 is further divided into MK-4 and MK-7. MK-7, the form in this supplement, is derived from natto (fermented soya) or chickpeas. It has a longer half-life than MK-4, meaning it stays active in the body longer and can be taken once daily. MenaQ7 is a patented, non-GM vitamin K2 MK-7 produced through fermentation of chickpeas, ensuring purity and bioavailability.

Key Benefits of Vitamin K2

• Bone health: Vitamin K2 contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. It supports the activation of osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium to the bone matrix.
• Blood clotting: Vitamin K2 contributes to normal blood clotting, an essential process for health.
• Calcium utilisation: By directing calcium to bones and teeth, K2 supports proper calcium distribution and may help maintain healthy soft tissues.
• Dental health: Adequate vitamin K2 supports tooth mineralisation and may help maintain strong teeth.

Who May Benefit from Vitamin K2 Supplementation?

Individuals who have limited dietary intake of fermented foods (like natto, cheese, or sauerkraut) may not get enough vitamin K2. Those taking vitamin D supplements may especially benefit from added K2, as vitamin D increases calcium absorption – K2 helps ensure that calcium goes to the right places. Older adults, people on blood thinners (consult a doctor first), and those concerned about bone density or cardiovascular health may find supplementation supportive.

How to Choose a Quality Vitamin K2 Supplement

When selecting a vitamin K2 supplement, look for the MK-7 form for longer-lasting benefits. MenaQ7 is a well-researched, patented ingredient with studies supporting its bioavailability and efficacy. Doctor's Best Vitamin K2 MK7 is third-party tested for purity and potency, non-GM, gluten-free, soya-free, and vegan. With 45 mcg per capsule – a commonly recommended maintenance dose – it fits easily into a daily routine.

Supporting Bone Health with Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in calcium metabolism. Whilst many focus on calcium and vitamin D for bone health, vitamin K2 is equally important – it helps direct calcium to the bones and teeth where it is needed, and away from soft tissues like arteries. Doctor's Best Natural Vitamin K2 MK7 Supplement provides 45 mcg of vitamin K2 as MK-7 (menaquinone-7) from MenaQ7, a clinically studied form sourced from fermented chickpeas. This vegan, non-GM formula is designed to complement your bone health regimen.

Usage Recommendations

Take 1 capsule daily with food, as vitamin K2 is fat-soluble and absorbs best when consumed with a meal containing fat. Follow the suggested uses on the label or as directed by a health care professional. Store in a cool, dry place.

Safety Considerations

Vitamin K2 is generally well tolerated. However, if you are taking anticoagulant medications (blood thinners like warfarin), consult your doctor before taking vitamin K2, as it can interfere with their action. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also seek medical advice. Do not exceed recommended dosage. Keep out of reach of children.
