K Supply For As people age, even a subclinical K deficiency can pose risks to the vascular system. Poor K status also results in increased circulating levels of undercarboxylated osteocalcin that is shown to be associated with increased loss in postmenopausal women. Humans get most of their K from green vegetables in the form of K1. The problem is that K1 is tightly bound to fibre and only a small fraction absorbs into the bloodstream. Other studies suggest K intake not only blocks the progress of further calcium accumulation, but also induces 37% regression of preformed arterial calcification. Ideal Forms of K - In recent years, two forms of K2 have been extensively researched and the findings reveal vastly improved effects compared to K1. The MK-4 form of K2 is the most rapidly absorbed and is now routinely used in Japan to maintain y density. MK-4, however, only remains active in the blood for a few hours. The MK-7 form of K2, on the other hand, remains bioavailable to the human body over a sustained 24-hour period and to higher levels (seven- to eightfold) during prolonged intake. Both MK-4 and MK-7 have demonstrated remarkable benefits when studied in human populations. Poor K status leads to inactive uncarboxylated MGP (ucMGP), which accumulates at sites of arterial calcification. Since MGP is a potent local inhibitor of arterial calcification, MGP is important in relation to the of the entire cardiovascular system. Without adequate K, calcium in the blood can bind to the arterial wall resulting in calcification. The Most Complete K Formula - The latest Super K formula provides K1 and the MK-4 and MK-7 forms of K2 in just one daily softgel. The virtue of this formula is that it provides the precise a of the long-acting MK-7 form of K2 that recent human studies have shown provides optimal K2 levels over a 24-hour period. The MK-4 is included to provide the rapid increase in K blood levels that may account for its beneficial effects in certain studies.
