Vitacost Ultra Vitamin K with Advanced K2 Complex Description What is Vitacost Ultra Vitamin K with Advanced K2 Complex? Vitamin K refers to a family of fat-soluble compounds known as quinones. Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) is the natural form, found in green leafy vegetable such as spinach, kale and broccoli, as well as in green peas, carrots, soybeans, eggs, liver and dairy products. Vitamin K2 (menaquinone) is produced by bacteria in both animal and human intestines. How does Vitacost Ultra Vitamin K with Advanced K2 Complex support health? Vitamin K’s primary function in the body is to aid in the production of Gla (gamma carboxyglutamic acid) proteins, which play a part in coagulation and anti-coagulation of blood.* Vitamin K is also necessary for osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) to activate osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium to bones.* Therefore, adequate amounts of vitamin K make certain that calcium is properly delivered to bones and that arterial health is maintained.* Why choose Vitacost Ultra Vitamin K with Advanced K2 Complex?
