Promote Bone Health With Zenith Nutrition Vitamin K2 as MK-7 Vegetarian Capsules

Hi,

Today I am going to write about another health supplement from Zenith Nutrition- Vitamin K2 as MK-7 Vegetarian Capsules.  Why Vitamin K is not spoken about as much as the other vitamins like A, C & E. Isn’t it that essential for our body? I am afraid that’s not true.

Our body is a complex system. It is made of several single as well as complex compounds of vitamins & minerals. Every single component is essential for our body to function well as we live. Some people might have not even heard about Vitamin K. That is why it is not even thought to be very essential in our diet. We might not even be aware about the source of Vitamin K. Deficiency of Vitamin K, is not something to be taken lightly. Let me tell you why?

What Is Vitamin K?

Vitamin K is an essential nutrient in blood coagulation or blood clotting as we know it commonly. There are two main forms of Vitamin K. Vitamin K1 or phylloquinone is found in plant foods like leafy greens, whereas Vitamin K2 or  menaquinone is found in animal foods and fermented foods & last but not the least Vitamin K3 or menadione.

Vitamin K2 has further sub types out of which two subtypes MK4 & MK7 are considered to be the most vital.

Benefits of Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 is involved with other nutrients like Calcium & Vitamin D while transporting them to the parts of our body where they are required the most i.e. our bones & teeth making them stronger.

  • Helps Prevent Osteoporosis and Improves Bone Health
  • Helps Prevent Heart Disease
  • Makes Your Teeth Stronger
  • Decreases Inflammation
  • May Help Autoimmune Conditions
  • Boosts Mitochondrial Function
  • May Help Some Cancers
  • Helps the Brain
  • Lowers the Risk of Dying From All Causes
  • Lowers Insulin Resistance

How Do The Vitamins K1 & K2 +Work?

The main function of Vitamin K is modifying proteins to give them ability to bind calcium. Hence vitamin K activates the calcium binding ability of the proteins. But Vitamin K1 & K2 has more specific roles. Vitamin K1 is activated by the liver to bind the calcium involved in blood clotting while Vitamin K2 transports calcium to the parts of the body wherever it is required the most like the bones & the teeth.

What Are MK 4 & MK 7?

Vitamin K2 from animal sources is known as MK-4 while Vitamin K2 produced by bacterial fermentation as found in natto is known as MK-7.

Natto (fermented soybean) is the richest dietary source of vitamin K2. Dairy products (milk, butter, cottage cheese, cheese) and egg yolk also provide small amounts.

Even if we consume enough green leafy vegetables, we can not get Vitamin K2 since our soils are not that potent now. It becomes essential that we supplement our Vitamin K2 intake by any other means. Thank goodness, Zenith Nutrition Vitamin K2 capsules are here which provide vitamin K2 in the form of MK7 the most desired form of the vitamin.

Why MK7 is a Better Supplement than MK4?

Chronic inflammation is the source of many diseases, including cancer, obesity, and heart disease. It generally stay in body unnoticed and over a period of time, it damages tissues resulting into irreversible damage. MK7 has been found to reduce inflammation in bones.

MK4 is the result of chemical synthesis in labs while MK7 is produced via bacterial fermentation of soy.  Menaquinone-7 (MK-7), has been the subject of extensive research because it stays active in your body longer enabling your body to benefit from much lower levels.
