Don’t waste time or money on the wrong form of vitamin K2 for your arteries

If you’re at all concerned about the health of your arteries, we believe you cannot go without vitamin K2. The research clearly points to its critical role in cardiovascular health and calcium usage in your body. There’s no doubt that Vitamin K2 is highly effective at directing calcium into your bones and away from your arteries—which is exactly what you want.

This outstanding “calcium crossing guard” helps reduce the amount of calcium that circulates in your arteries—where it is most definitely not wanted—and helps direct it to your bones—where you most definitely want it.

One of the most impressive studies on K2, known as the Rotterdam Study, suggests that subjects with the highest intake of vitamin K2 exhibited the best cardiovascular health. And when a five year follow-up of the population in this study (more than 4,400 elderly subjects) was conducted, they found that those with the highest intakes of vitamin K2 had significantly better cardiovascular health. This is because K2 is so effective at keeping the level of calcium down in your arteries.

It's not a question of if you should be taking vitamin K2 for your cardiovascular system, but rather which K2 you need

You absolutely want vitamin K2, NOT vitamin K1. The most important thing to understand when it comes to vitamin K and your arteries is form. First, you want vitamin K2—NOT vitamin K1 (usually just called simply vitamin K or K1). While K1 is found commonly in leafy vegetables and plays a role in normal blood clotting, only 10% of the vitamin K1 in these foods is absorbed by your body. In addition, K1 does not stay in your body anywhere near as long as K2.

And it’s only K2 that’s been studied for effectively helping to keep calcium out of your blood and arteries. The bottom line? If the “2” is missing, it’s not the right vitamin K for your cardiovascular system.

But there’s more—not all K2 is alike. The most bioavailable form of vitamin K2 is MK-7. This is critical—most vitamin K2 supplements give you MK-4, not MK-7—or they mix the two so you don't get a full dose of the more effective MK-7. Healthy Directions MK-7 is the right formula for you. It’s not bogged down with multiple forms that don’t yield results. It’s a pure, high-dose vitamin K2 in the form that’s going to keep your arteries healthy. Don’t settle for anything less and be assured that calcium is getting to where it belongs in your body—and not lingering in your bloodstream.

Healthy Directions MK-7:

Provides the most active and bioavailable form of Vitamin K2—MK-7
Helps reduce the level of calcium in your blood stream
Supports cardiovascular health
Helps strengthen your bones
Aids in calcium absorption in your bones
Helps increase bone density levels

Don’t be fooled by vitamin K2 supplements—make sure you’re taking 150 mcg daily of MK-7. This is by far the most active, most bioavailable form of vitamin K2. And it’s the most effective form for helping to reduce the level of calcium in your arteries while helping to shuttle calcium to your bones—where it belongs.
