Vitamin K2 helps prevent vascular calcification by guiding calcium away from your arteries and into your bones, reducing the risk of heart disease and arterial stiffness
Research shows people with higher vitamin K2 intake have a 29% lower risk of peripheral artery disease, 44% reduction in Type 2 diabetes and 41% reduction in hypertension
Vitamin K2 activates proteins that bind calcium to the bone matrix, constantly supporting bone strength and reducing risk of fractures and osteoporosis
The recommended daily dosage is 90 to 180 micrograms for adults, 90 micrograms for teenagers and 45 micrograms for children under 10 years old
Good sources of K2 include fermented foods like natto, aged cheeses, egg yolks, grass fed dairy products and organic, grass fed beef
