You want calcium to go to your bones and teeth, and not your arteries and organs. A protein called MGP (matrix Gla protein) is key for preventing the unwanted buildup of calcium in your arteries and requires vitamin K2 to function. Researchers have discovered that healthy arterial tissues contain up to 100 times more vitamin K2 than calcified arteries. Restoring blood levels of vitamin K2 can potentially help reverse the buildup of calcium caused by a vitamin K2 deficiency. Considering that an estimated 97 percent of the Western hemisphere may be deficient in vitamin K2, this is a nutrient you don’t want to ignore.
Dr. Mercola's Vitamin K2 supplies a nutritional dose of 180 mcg of a patented form of vitamin K2, MenaQ7. This is the first and only clinical proven vitamin K2 for both bone and cardiovascular health. Vitamin K2 contains no bioengineered ingredients and guarantees a high level of quality, safety and efficacy.
