Key Ingredients 

Vitamin K2 MK-7 and Bone Health

Vitamin K is associated with osteoblasts. Osteoblasts are cells that build bone and produce a protein called osteocalcin. Osteocalcin is a protein-like glue that incorporates calcium into the bones. Without vitamin K2, osteocalcin cannot be produced in the body. Without vitamin K to control calcium, calcium can drift out of the bones and into arteries and other soft tissues. Vitamin K2 redirects the calcium into bones.

Vitamin K2 MK-7 and Heart Health

Studies have shown that an adequate intake of vitamin K2 helps to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. In one study, those who supplemented with vitamin K2 had a lower risk of aortic calcification and coronary heart disease than those who supplemented with vitamin K1.

Vitamin K and Blood Clotting

The ‘K’ in vitamin K comes from the German word ‘koagulation’. Vitamin K1 is used by your liver as a clotting factor, whereas vitamin K2 is used by the brain, vasculature, breasts and kidneys. In fact, in the brain, vitamin K2 contributes to the production of myelin and fats essential for brain health and protects against oxidative damage. Taking broad-spectrum antibiotics can reduce vitamin K production in the gut by nearly 74 percent compared to people not taking these antibiotics. Additionally, the elderly have reduced vitamin K2 production. Deficiencies can lead to nose bleeds, easy bruising and extremely heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia). It is important to take vitamin K2 with ESTROsmart to help alleviate heavy periods.

Vitamin K2 MK-7: The Superior Source

Vitamin K2 (menaquinone -7) from the Japanese food natto is the best source of vitamin K2. Half of the vitamin K that our body absorbs is from green leafy vegetables.

Unfortunately, most foods thought to be rich in vitamin K have less vitamin K than previously thought. Most multivitamins don’t even contain vitamin K and those that do don’t have enough. Smart women supplement with vitamin K2 MK-7.

Advantages of Vitamin K2 MK-7 Over Other Forms of Vitamin K1

• 10 times more absorption than other forms of vitamin K
• Regulates calcium in blood vessels to promote bone health
• MK-7 creates probiotics in the gastrointestinal system

Vitamin D3 for Strong Bones

Like vitamin K2 MK-7, vitamin D is essential for calcium absorption. A deficiency in vitamin D leads to decreased calcium absorption, promoting osteoporosis and other conditions such as osteoarthritis, muscle cramps and twitching, joint pain and stiffness, backache, tooth decay and hair loss. Vitamin D is essential for the production of thyroid hormones and many people with low thyroid have a vitamin D deficiency.
