Vitamin K is well known for its role in the synthesis of a number of blood clotting factors. Over the past few years, it has been discovered that vitamin K2 and its dependent proteins are vital for bone and vascular health. These proteins are now known to play a central role in the physiology of bone mineralization as well as the maintenance of vascular elasticity.
Recent research studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of vitamin K on bone and cardiovascular health. In fact, bone quality depends on the adequate presence of vitamin K.
NOW MK-7 Vitamin K-2 contains an organic, highly active form of vitamin K2, derived from natto, a traditional Japanese food made from soybeans and fermented with the bacterium Bacillus subtilis.
MK-7 appears to be longer lasting than synthetic MK4, and can reduce serum ucOC (undercarboxylated osteocalcin). ucOC is a biological indicator of vitamin K status in the body and is inversely related to vitamin K intake. Greater absorption of vitamin K by the body means further reduction of ucOC in blood serum. So it seems that MK-7 has a greater absorption and use than artificial MK4.
