Dr. Mercola Vitamin K2 180 µg (MK-7) – MenaQ7 – Non-GMO, Gluten-free, Dairy-Free – 30 Capsules

Key Benefits of Vitamin K2

• Supports Bone Strength – Activates osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium to bone matrix, promoting strong, healthy bones.
• Promotes Heart Health – Activates matrix Gla protein (MGP), which helps prevent calcium deposition in arteries, supporting healthy arterial function.
• Enhances Calcium Utilisation – Works synergistically with vitamin D to ensure calcium is used where it’s needed most.
• Long-Lasting Activity – MK-7 has a longer half-life than MK-4, providing consistent support throughout the day.

Who May Benefit from Vitamin K2 Supplementation?

Individuals concerned about bone density, cardiovascular health, or those taking high doses of vitamin D may particularly benefit from vitamin K2. Older adults, postmenopausal women, and people with limited dietary intake of K2-rich foods (like natto) may also consider supplementation. Always consult a health care professional before starting any new regimen.

What to Look for in a Vitamin K2 Supplement

Quality matters. This supplement features MenaQ7, a clinically studied ingredient derived from non-GMO chickpeas. It is free from soya, gluten, and dairy, and produced without artificial additives. The non-soya source is particularly appealing for those with soya sensitivities or preferences.

How Much Vitamin K2 Should You Take?

A common maintenance dosage of MK-7 is 180 µg per day, as provided by one capsule of Dr. Mercola Vitamin K2. This dose aligns with researched amounts shown to support bone and cardiovascular markers. Because vitamin K2 is fat-soluble, taking it with a meal containing fat may enhance absorption.

Why Your Body Needs Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble nutrient that plays a critical role in directing calcium to the bones and teeth while helping to prevent calcium build-up in arteries. Despite its importance, many people do not get enough K2 from diet alone. Dr. Mercola Vitamin K2 provides 180 µg of the highly bioavailable MK-7 form, derived from chickpea-based natto, to support your cardiovascular and skeletal systems.

Vitamin K2 MK-7: The Superior Form

Vitamin K2 comes in two main forms: MK-4 and MK-7. MK-7, sourced from natto, stays active in the body longer and is more effective at supporting bone and heart health. This formula undertake MenaQ7, a patented form of MK-7 known for its superior absorption and bioavailability. Unlike synthetic alternatives, this K2 is naturally fermented from chickpeas, making it a soya-free and non-GMO choice.

Safety and Side Effects

Vitamin K2 is generally well tolerated at recommended dosages. However, individuals taking blood-thinning medications (e.g., warfarin) should avoid vitamin K supplements without medical advice. If you are pregnant, nursing, or have a medical condition, consult your health care provider.
