NATURAL K2 VITAMIN / 100 mcg / 30 softgels

Swanson natural K2 vitamin (Menaquinone-7 from Natto): For optimal circulatory, bone, and heart health

• Contains K2 vitamin from 100% natural Japanese natto, a fermented soybean product.
• K2 helps regulate calcium for the benefit of healthy bones and a healthy heart
• Good for daily maintenance

The product's vitamin K2 is the biologically most active form of vitamin K2. Everyone knows the importance of calcium and vitamin D for bone health, but what about vitamin K2? If there is one vitamin you should know more about, it is this one.

While vitamin K1 is mainly associated with blood clotting, K2 helps activate proteins that regulate where calcium ends up in the body. This means this little-known vitamin is a powerhouse when it comes to healthy bones and a healthy heart. Our K2 vitamin comes from 100% natural Japanese natto (fermented soybean product), and since the Western diet is generally low in fermented foods, it is also low in K2. 

Double the power with K-2 vitamin - Natural

Double the power with Swanson Natto K7's double strength, providing 100 mcg of vitamin K2. Swanson Natto K7 (formerly MenaQ7™) is the biologically most active form of vitamin K2. While vitamin K is best known for its role in blood clotting, K2 also helps activate proteins that regulate where calcium ends up in the body. Menaquinone-7, derived from 100% natural Japanese natto (fermented soybean product), has been scientifically proven to promote bone and cardiovascular health by keeping calcium out of arteries and directing it to where it truly belongs - the bones that need it.

Vitamin K2 itself consists of 13 numbered natural substances called menaquinones, of which menaquinone-7 in particular has been scientifically proven to promote cardiovascular and bone health. Extensive research conducted in the Netherlands shows that menaquinone-7 derived from natto in Swanson Natto K7 helps move calcium away from arteries and into bones - where it belongs. Swanson Natto K7 "really puts calcium in the right place."

Benefits for healthy circulation

One of the main roles of vitamin K2 is its ability to support healthy circulation. Studies have shown that vitamin K2 can help prevent calcium buildup in blood vessels, which in turn reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases. By regulating where calcium is stored in the body, vitamin K2 can help maintain flexible blood vessels and promote efficient circulation.

Promotes optimal bone health and calcium storage

Vitamin K2 plays a crucial role in bone health and calcium storage. It helps activate osteocalcin, a protein responsible for binding calcium to bone tissue. Without sufficient vitamin K2, calcium may instead accumulate in soft tissues, which can lead to problems such as weakened bones and increased fracture risk. 

Supports heart and vascular health and arterial flexibility

In addition to supporting bone health and circulation, vitamin K2 has also been found to have positive effects on heart and vascular health. By preventing calcium buildup in blood vessels, it may help maintain arterial flexibility and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. 

The capsule is size D and easy to swallow.
