Vitamin K is essential to good health. We need it for normal clotting of blood and for the formation and maintenance of healthy bones. The most recognized form is vitamin K1 (phylloquinone), but there are other incredibly important vitamin K compounds. Vitamin K2 (menaquinone), in fact, may be the most important form, as it is the most active in assisting the body's use of calcium. Although our bodies produce some vitamin K2, we store it in very limited amounts. A lack of K2, which can be caused by a poor diet, is not uncommon. Fortunately, a revolutionary new form of natural, highly assimilable vitamin K2, menaquinone-7, is now available. Vitamin K2 helps ensure that the calcium we consume makes it to the cells and tissues that need it. Thus, Vitamin K2 promotes both bone health and cardiovascular health by putting calcium in its place--in the bones--and by keeping it in check in the cardiovascular system.
