Vitamin K2, bone health and cardiovascular health

Vitamin K2 deficiency interferes with the regulation of calcium levels. Low levels of this vitamin are associated with an increased risk of heart disease and atherosclerosis.[2] Calcium deficiency in the bones increases the risk of its deposition in the arteries and vice versa, while its deficiency in the bones results in the development of osteoporosis.[6]

Vitamin K2 increases bone mineral density and may promote bone quality and strength. Vitamin K2 (MK-7) can affect collagen production, which also affects bone quality.

Adequate intake of vitamin K2 may lower the risk of vascular damage because Vitamin K2 activates MGP (matrix GLA protein), which inhibits calcium from depositing in the vessel walls. That's why, calcium become more available for multiple other roles in the body, leaving the arteries healthy and flexible.[3,4]

As we already mentioned, vitamin K2 activate the anti-calcific protein known as matrix GLA protein. In its inactive form, this protein is associated with various markers of cardiovascular disease including increased arterial stiffness, vascular and valvular calcification, insulin resistance and heart failure indices which ultimately increase cardiovascular mortality.[5]
