Vitamin K
60 Veggie Capsules

Vitamin K is a dietary supplement formulated to promote antioxidant activity, cardiovascular health, and bone and joint health. Vitamin K is available in capsules from Natura-Genics®.

Key Ingredients

This supplement contains vitamin K2, (menaquinone-7) extracted from natto. Natto is a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans and has been linked to several health benefits. Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that is vital for blood clotting and healthy bone tissue. 

Benefits of Vitamin K 

• Promotes Antioxidant Activity 

Vitamin K has antioxidant properties. It protects cellular membranes from damage due to excess free radicals, in a process known as peroxidation. High levels of free radicals may cause harm in the body and are linked to several illnesses. Along with a nutritional diet, vitamin K may be beneficial to the body especially to those who may be vitamin K deficient. 

• Promotes Cardiovascular Health 

Vitamin K may also offer beneficial properties to the heart. Some studies have found a link between vitamin K and the production of matrix Gla proteins, which may help prevent calcification or hardening of heart arteries, a contributor to heart disease. Vitamin K may help prevent this calcium build-up thus reducing the risk for cardiovascular complications. 

• Promotes Bone and Joint Health 

Vitamin K plays a crucial role in the metabolism of calcium. Calcium is a mineral found in bones and teeth. Vitamin K activates the calcium-binding actions of matrix Gla and osteocalcin, which help build and maintain bones. Osteoporosis is a common health condition that causes bones to become weak and brittle. Those who suffer from this condition may benefit from this supplement as some studies have shown a decreased risk of fractures when taking vitamin K.
