An excellent value Vitamin K2 MK-7 supplement using the well-regarded MenaQ7 form, ideal for bone and cardiovascular health support.
Dose: K:45mcg, Quantity: 180Dose: K:100mcg, Quantity: 60
This product focuses on delivering Vitamin K2 as MenaQ7, a patented and clinically studied form of menaquinone-7. MenaQ7 is recognized for its superior bioavailability and longer half-life compared to other forms of Vitamin K, allowing for more consistent levels in the body to support bone and cardiovascular health. The dosage of 45 mcg is a good maintenance dose, suitable for general health and foundational support. Online reviews consistently praise its effectiveness and value, with many users reporting positive outcomes related to bone density and cardiovascular well-being. Nutritionists often recommend MenaQ7 for its proven efficacy in directing calcium to bones and away from arteries.
- Contains MenaQ7, a highly bioavailable and well-researched form of Vitamin K2 MK-7.
- Very affordable price per serving, offering great value for a quality ingredient.
- High number of positive reviews indicating user satisfaction and perceived effectiveness.
- The 45 mcg dosage may be considered on the lower side for individuals with specific therapeutic needs requiring higher doses, as some studies suggest benefits at 90-180 mcg for certain conditions.
- Does not include Vitamin D3, which is often recommended to be taken alongside K2 for synergistic effects on calcium metabolism.

Categories
Vitamin K 95.0
As a pure Vitamin K2 MK-7 supplement, it effectively serves the 'Vitamin K' collection by providing the most bioavailable and widely recognized form for systemic benefits. The MenaQ7 ensures optimal utilization compared to other forms of Vitamin K available.
Goals
Bone Health 90.0
Vitamin K2, particularly MK-7, is crucial for bone health by activating osteocalcin, a protein that integrates calcium into bone matrix. The MenaQ7 form in this product is well-documented to improve bone mineral density and strength, supporting this goal effectively even at 45mcg for maintenance.
Heart Health 90.0
MK-7 contributes to heart health by activating Matrix Gla Protein (MGP), which inhibits calcium accumulation in arteries, thereby promoting arterial flexibility. The consistent delivery of MenaQ7 supports this vital function for long-term cardiovascular well-being.
Cardiovascular Support 90.0
Similar to heart health, Vitamin K2 MK-7's role in preventing arterial calcification is central to cardiovascular support. Regular intake helps maintain the elasticity of blood vessels and supports overall circulatory health, directly addressing this goal through MGP activation.
