Product Description
Pure Encapsulations Synergy K What exactly is Vitamin K? Vitamin K encompasses a group of compounds characterized by a central ring structure with varying side chains. These distinct side chains play a crucial role in absorption, bioavailability, transport, and distribution within tissues. The most prevalent form, Vitamin K1 or phylloquinone, is commonly found in plants and green vegetables. Conversely, the Vitamin K2 family, known as menaquinones, is less common and can be sourced from meats, eggs, certain cheeses, and fermented foods like Japanese natto. Among the menaquinones, menaquinone-4 and menaquinone-7 (MK-7) are the most notable. Research suggests that Vitamin K1 and Vitamin K2 (menaquinone-4) are primarily stored in the liver, while MK-7 is predominantly found in extrahepatic tissues, particularly vascular tissues, and boasts a longer half-life. This distinctive formulation contains a comprehensive mix of Vitamins K1, K2, and D, fostering healthy calcium utilization for the maintenance of robust bones and blood vessels.
Recommended Use: 1 capsule daily, with a meal, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
