among whom modest supplementation with MK-7 has been
shown to increase osteocalcin carboxylation.[12] The
combination of vitamin D3 with K2 provides greater benefits
for the maintenance of bone mineral density among
women.[13]
Recent research has highlighted the superior benefits of a 180
mcg dose of vitamin K2 for bone health. In a randomized,
placebo-controlled trial, 180 mcg of MK-7 or placebo were
given to 244 healthy post-menopausal women over the course
of 3 years. After at least 2 years, statistically significant
benefits were seen in vertebrae, hip, and femoral neck.[5]
Another ground-breaking randomized, placebo-controlled
trial which gave 244 women, aged 55-65 180 mcg of vitamin
K2 or placebo found that those given the K2 were significantly
better able to maintain their osteoclast to osteoblast ratio.
Furthermore, levels of circulating osteocalcin, a marker
related to tissue calcification in the body, were reduced by
50% among women taking K2 versus a 4% increase among the
placebo group after 2 and 3 years.[14]
Cardiovascular Health and Blood Sugar
Balance†
Vitamin K also plays a key role in supporting the
cardiovascular system as well as healthy blood sugar
balance. In a large population study, those who consumed
high amounts of K2 had significantly improved cardiovascular
markers compared to those given vitamin K1.[15] A cohort of
over 16,000 women also linked higher intake of K2 with
better maintenance of cardiovascular health.[16] Studies have
also shown vitamin K to support healthy blood sugar
metabolism.[17,18] Doses of 180 mcg of K2 have been shown to
have a positive effect on arterial and vascular elasticity.
Additionally, 180 mcg of K2 given over 2-3 years has been
shown to help maintain soft tissue health and vascular
elasticity in healthy adult subjects.[19]The same amount of MK-7
was also found to impart substantial benefits in arterial
plasticity and blood vessel elasticity in healthy women,
something previously seen only with “pharmacological doses”
of synthetic vitamin K of up to 4500 mcg daily.[5]
Immune Modulation†
New evidence suggests vitamin K plays a central role in
balancing immune health. Recent studies have shown that
both vitamins D and K impart immune-modulating effects. In
the Framingham Offspring Study, one of the longest standing
studies on generational health, higher serum levels of vitamins
D and K were associated with stronger immune function and a
balanced inflammatory response.[20,21]
