Swanson – Vitamin K-2
We all need a good supply of vitamin K to stay healthy, but it’s important to remember that not all vitamin K is the same. In fact, vitamin K is actually a group of several related compounds, classified into two main types, K1 and K2. Vitamin K1 is often called the “plant form” of the vitamin, as it is found primarily in green leafy vegetables. Vitamin K2 (menaquinone) is the main storage form of the vitamin in animals, and is the most biologically active form in human physiology. While vitamin K is mostly known for its involvement in blood clotting, K2 also helps to activate the proteins that regulate where calcium ends up in the body.
Out of thirteen different subtypes of vitamin K2 that have been identified, menaquinone-7 has shown great promise for promoting bone strength and cardiovascular health, thanks to its role in regulating calcium transport. Menaquinone-7 is found in many foods, including aged cheeses, liver and eggs, but the richest source by far is natto, a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans. Swanson Ultra Maximum Strength Vitamin K2 is our highest potency K2 supplement ever, derived from natto made exclusively from non-GMO soybeans.

Excellent dosage of vitamin d3 for effective benefits. The size is designed for short courses. The quality is reliable as long as it is soft gel
Ecosupplements customer (verified owner) –
The dosage is consistent with clinical studies. The pill size is small and the quality of the ingredient comes from natto. The taste is neutral and the benefit is enhanced when paired with D3. I love that the bottle and pill are so small.

Excellent product, just as expected, small capsules, great taste. Efficacy and benefit are quite difficult to estimate, here is more “as the doctor says”.

This is the best K2 quality. They made it very small in size for easy ingestion. I have this K2 with calcium. And I think K2 definitely helps with better calcium absorption. This is a great advantage for both.

Nice small capsule. The dosage is one tablet per day. Benefits the absorption of calcium. No taste. Good quality product. Natural ingredients are a plus. Too early to see if it works.
