Mega Vitamin K2, 30 Capsules, by Life Extension

Description

VitaminK is essential for bone mineralization. This bone-friendly nutrient is a cofactorfor the carboxylation of osteocalcin, a protein produced by osteoblasts that isresponsible for binding calcium and depositing it in the bone. This processedis called bone mineralization.^1,2

Why is this important? Because ifyou’re not getting enough K2, osteocalcin doesn’t undergo carboxylation andremains in its inactive form, which means it cannot bind to calcium and play its role in bone formation.²
