Description
For a long time, vitamin K1 and vitamin K2 were regarded as two largely identical forms of the same vitamin. We now know that the function and metabolism of these two K vitamins differ significantly and that they are found in different foods. Whilst vitamin K1 is found in green vegetables and leafy greens, vitamin K2 is found in meat, dairy products and fermented foods.
Vitamin K2 plays a crucial role in calcium metabolism, as it helps ensure that calcium from our blood is directed to the right places in the body, strengthening bones and teeth rather than being deposited in soft tissues and causing arterial calcification. It is therefore also the most effective protection against osteoporosis, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease and coronary heart disease.
This guide explains how you can meet your vitamin K2 requirements through a natural diet to protect your heart and bones, prevent chronic diseases and counteract the ageing process. If you are deficient, you can also specifically supplement your diet with a vitamin K2 supplement. This book also explains how to recognise high-quality, safe products and how to dose them.
