What is the difference between Vitamin K2 as MK-4 and MK-7?Updated 4 months ago

Both forms of vitamin K2 are beneficial to human health, yet have certain differentiating properties.*

MK7 is naturally produced by certain bacteria found in our digestive system, specifically the small and large intestines. By supplementing with beneficial probiotics or beneficial food like natto, you may be able to support healthy levels of MK7. This form can support gene expression surrounding bone formation, bone repair, and collagen.*

The major form of vitamin K in the diet is K1 known as phylloquinone which comes primarily from a plant-based diet. Phylloquinones may be converted into MK4, known as menaquinone, naturally in the body. This is essential for cognitive function. MK4 also supports gene expression surrounding bone formation, bone repair, and collagen.*
