Vitamin K2 (MK-7) and calcium metabolism
vitamin K2 MK 7 will take the calcium you consume to the bones n spare the arteries clogging. is this true ?
K2 MK7 does not literally take calcium to the bones but it activates proteins like osteocalcin and MGP that support bone mineralization and may help reduce calcium deposition in arteries. Have a look at this clinical study on the same: Two Years of Menaquinone-7 Supplementation and Coronary Artery Calcification: A Randomized Clinical Trial Although interesting as a concept, this has not been proven in real research studies. Vitamin K2 MK-7 may support bone-related proteins and may reduce progression of vascular calcification in some studies, but it has NOT been proven to prevent clogged arteries or heart attacks….. When I researched this, I found 2-3 studies that have looked at clinical endpoints but have NOT demonstrated clinically meaningful outcomes
