Just Thrive Vitamin K2-7 - Bone Health K2 Vitamin Supplement, 60 Capsules

Why Vitamin K2 as MK-7?

Vitamin K2 exists in several forms, but MK-7 (menaquinone-7) stands out for its long half-life in the bloodstream. Compared to MK-4, MK-7 remains active longer, enabling once-daily dosage. It also offers higher bioavailability, meaning your body can utilise it more effectively. The Just Thrive Vitamin K2-7 supplement delivers this active MK-7 form in a convenient capsule, using a pure, vegan-friendly source that is free from common allergens such as dairy, gluten, and soya.

Who Might Benefit from Vitamin K2?

Individuals with limited dietary intake of K2-rich foods—like natto, cheese, or fermented vegetables—may consider supplementation. Those aiming to support bone density as they age, or people on low-fat diets who may have reduced absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, might also benefit. Vegans and vegetarians will find this supplement particularly suitable, as the MK-7 is plant-derived. If you take anticoagulant medications, consult your health care provider before adding vitamin K2, as it can interact with blood thinners.

Key Roles of Vitamin K2

Vitamin K contributes to normal blood coagulation and the maintenance of normal bones. These are authorised health claims by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Specifically, vitamin K2 activates osteocalcin, a protein that helps bind calcium to the bone matrix, supporting bone strength. It also activates matrix Gla-protein (MGP), which may help inhibit calcium deposition in arterial walls—an area of ongoing research. Other potential roles, such as brain health, are under investigation but not yet established. As with any supplement, individual results may vary.

Natural Sources of Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 occurs naturally in certain fermented foods. Natto (fermented soybeans) is exceptionally rich in K2. Other sources include aged cheeses, sauerkraut, egg yolks, and liver. However, dietary intake of K2 is often low, especially in Western diets. Supplementation can help bridge this gap, particularly for those following plant-based diets. Just Thrive Vitamin K2-7 provides a reliable, vegan-friendly source of this essential nutrient.

How to Take Vitamin K2 for Best Absorption

As a fat-soluble vitamin, take your K2 supplement with a meal containing healthy fats (e.g., avocado, nuts, or olive oil) for optimal absorption. The typical recommended dosage is one capsule daily, providing a consistent amount of MK-7. Regular intake is key because the body does not store large amounts of vitamin K. You can pair K2 with vitamin D3 and calcium for combined bone support, but always seek advice from your health care practitioner before combining supplements.

What Is Vitamin K2?

Vitamin K2, specifically the menaquinone-7 (MK-7) form, is a fat-soluble nutrient essential for several bodily functions. Unlike vitamin K1, which primarily supports blood clotting, K2 is involved in calcium metabolism. It helps direct calcium to bones and teeth and away from soft tissues such as arteries. Just Thrive Vitamin K2-7 delivers this active MK-7 form in a convenient capsule, derived from a vegan-friendly source and free from dairy, gluten, and soya.
