What is Metabolics Vitamin K2?

Metabolics Vitamin K2 is a premium nutritional supplement formulated to support optimal bone health and calcium utilisation. Unlike Vitamin K1, primarily found in green leafy vegetables and essential for blood clotting, Vitamin K2 plays a distinct and crucial role in bone and cardiovascular health. Metabolics Vitamin K2 helps activate two important proteins: Osteocalcin, which binds calcium to the bone matrix, and Matrix Gla-Protein (MGP), which removes calcium from soft tissues like arteries. This dual action is vital for maintaining strong bones and preventing arterial calcification.

What is Metabolics Vitamin K2 good for?

Metabolics Vitamin K2 is particularly beneficial for supporting bone metabolism and reducing the risk of osteoporosis, a common condition in postmenopausal women. By ensuring the proper activation of Osteocalcin, Vitamin K2 facilitates the effective binding of calcium to bones, thereby increasing bone mineral density and strength. Research, such as this study on the efficacy of vitamin K2 in the prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis, has demonstrated that Vitamin K2, especially in the MK-7 form used by Metabolics, significantly decreases bone loss and improves overall bone health. Additionally, Vitamin K2 helps maintain cardiovascular health by preventing the calcification of arteries, thereby reducing the risk of heart disease.

Who is Metabolics Vitamin K2 for?

Metabolics Vitamin K2 is ideal for adults of all ages who are focused on maintaining or improving their bone health. It is especially beneficial for individuals at a higher risk of osteoporosis, such as postmenopausal women, and those with dietary deficiencies in Vitamin K2 due to modern agricultural practices and processed foods. This supplement is suitable for anyone looking to support long-term bone health, prevent bone-related conditions, and ensure proper calcium metabolism in the body.

Why use Metabolics Vitamin K2

Metabolics Vitamin K2 stands out due to its use of MenaQ7® MK-7, a highly bioavailable form of Vitamin K2 that remains active in the body for up to 36 hours, providing prolonged benefits. This supplement supports the dynamic process of bone remodeling, where osteoblasts and osteoclasts work to maintain bone strength and density. Clinical studies have shown that consistent intake of MK-7 improves bone mineral content, density, and strength, significantly reducing the risk of fractures. In 2013, Osteoporosis International published a groundbreaking double-blind, randomised, clinical trial demonstrating significant protection of the vertebrae and hip (femoral neck) against bone loss. This was achieved with a daily nutritional dose of Vitamin K2 as MK-7 (MenaQ7®) over three years.

In the study involving 244 healthy postmenopausal women, the group taking 180 mcg of MenaQ7® daily showed significantly decreased circulating uncarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC), a well-established biomarker for bone and vitamin K status. After three years, the MK-7 group had significantly better bone mineral content, bone mineral density, and bone strength compared to the placebo group.

Additionally, by ensuring calcium is directed away from arteries and into bones, Metabolics Vitamin K2 supports cardiovascular health, reducing the risk of arterial calcification and related heart diseases. Choosing Metabolics Vitamin K2 is a proactive step towards ensuring robust bone health and overall well-being as you age, backed by scientific research and the highest quality ingredients.

"With K2 it's always hard to know just how much benefit one is getting, but this is a great, easy to take, small capsule version, with sufficient K2 to ensure the threshold is met, and as long as plenty of hard cheese is also eaten, this should, in the long term, really support bone and blood vessel health. Only time will tell though!"
