In this blog post, I discuss Vitamin K2 and osteoporosis. Specifically, I cover
1/. The scientific research into the role of Vitamin K in improving bone health.
2./ I also list the foods high in Vitamin K2,
3./ provide the current recommended Vitamin K2 dosage for osteoporosis,
4./ discuss Vitamin K2 deficiency, differences between Vitamin K1 and Vitamin K2, and
5./ tell you about a Vitamin K2 food source rock star.
Here is a summary of the key points of this article:
1/. Some, but not all research, demonstrates that people with osteoporosis can use Vitamin K2 to improve both bone density and bone strength.
2/. Vitamin K2 is more effective than Vitamin K1 for improving bone health.
3/. The main sources of Vitamin K2 are animal products and fermented foods. A Japanese fermented dish called Nattō is particularly abundant in Vitamin K2.
4/. Unless you are actively increasing your Vitamin K2 levels through diet or supplementation, you are likely deficient and have inadequate levels for your bone and heart health needs.
5/. Vitamin K2 MK7 dosage recommendation is 150 to 180 µg per day. This is based on the dosage used in most recent research studies.
6/. Recommended daily dosage for Vitamin K2 MK4 is 45 mg in Asia and Japan. Other jurisdictions do not provide guidance.
7/. Consult with your physician and a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist before starting a Vitamin K2 protocol. This advice is particularly appropriate for people taking anticoagulants.
