Vitacost Vitamin K2 Description
Natural Vitamin K2 supplement for bone health support.
What is Vitamin K?
Vitamin K is a group of compounds known as quinones, needed by the body to make certain types of proteins required for normal blood coagulation and bone health.* Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) is found primarily in leafy green vegetables such as spinach and kale, while vitamin K2 (menaquinone) is produced by bacteria in both human and animal intestines.
What are the key benefits of Vitacost® Vitamin K?
-
Vitamin K’s primary function in the body is to aid in the production of Gla (gamma carboxyglutamic acid) proteins, which play a part in coagulation and anti-coagulation of blood.*
-
Vitamin K is also necessary for osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) to activate osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium to bones.* Therefore, adequate amounts of vitamin K make sure that calcium is properly delivered to bones and arterial health is maintained.*
