What Is Low Dose Vitamin K2?
Vitamin K is essential for heart health because it helps facilitate the transport of calcium out of the bloodstream: essentially it helps keep calcium in your bones and out of your arteries. And the MK7 form metabolizes more slowly than other forms, providing a more consistent supply to your body.
Not big on foods like milk, eggs, cheese and fish? This supplement is a good way to add vitamin K to your diet.
Low Dose Vitamin K2 Benefits

Dietary Forms of Vitamin K2 Aren’t Always Healthy
Vitamin K2 in its highest concentrations is often found in foods high in saturated fat, like full-fat cheese. You would have to consume large amounts to get the optimal K2 levels that are supported by human clinical trials. And low-fat versions of these foods often have less vitamin K2 content.1
