Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 (the menaquinones) is a group name for a family of related compounds, generally subdivided into short-chain menaquinones (with MK-4 as the most important member) and the long-chain menaquinones, of which MK-7, MK-8 and MK-9 are nutritionally the most recognized.

This database provides the MK-4 content of vitamin K2.

Health Effects of Vitamin K2

• Bone density
  It has been suggested that vitamin K2 may play an important role in maintaining healthy levels of bone mineral density (BMD). The strong association between vitamin K2 deficiency and impaired bone health was later proved by both laboratory and clinical studies. Research also showed that vitamin K2, but not K1 in combination with calcium and vitamin D can decrease bone turnover. Moreover, a study performed by Knapen et al. clearly demonstrated that vitamin K2 is essential for the maintenance of bone strength in postmenopausal women, and was the factor for improving bone mineral content.
• Heart calcification
  Patients suffering from osteoporosis were shown to have extensive calcium plaques, which impaired blood flow in the arteries. This simultaneous excess of calcium in one part of the body (arteries), and lack in another (bones)—which may occur even in spite of calcium supplementation—is known as the Calcium Paradox. The underlying reason is vitamin K2 deficiency, which leads to significant impairment in biological function of MGP, the most potent inhibitor of vascular calcification presently known. However, animal research showed that vascular calcification might not only be prevented, but even reversed by increasing the daily intake of vitamin K2.
