Swanson Natural Vitamin K2 (Menaquinone-7 from Natto) is the most biologically active form of vitamin K2. Everyone knows about calcium and vitamin D for bone health, but what about vitamin K2? If there’s one vitamin you should know more about, this one’s it.
While vitamin K is mostly known for its involvement in blood clotting, K2 also helps to activate the proteins that regulate where calcium ends up in the body, promoting healthy levels in both bones and arteries. Meaning this little-known vitamin is a powerhouse when it comes to healthy bones, and a healthy heart. Our vitamin K2 is derived from 100% natural Japanese natto (a fermented soybean product), and because the Western diet is typically low in fermented foods, it also tends to be low in K2. Since vitamin K2 is fat soluble, we deliver ours in sunflower oil-based softgels for optimum bioavailability.

FAQ
- What does vitamin K2 do in the body?
Vitamin K2 helps activate proteins involved in calcium metabolism, allowing the body to use calcium where it is needed most. It supports bone health, healthy blood vessel function, and overall cardiovascular wellness as part of normal calcium metabolism. - What's the difference between vitamin K1 and vitamin K2?
Vitamin K1 is found primarily in leafy green vegetables and is best known for its role in normal blood clotting. Vitamin K2 is found in fermented foods and certain animal products and is more closely associated with supporting healthy calcium metabolism, bone health, and cardiovascular wellness. - How does vitamin K2 support bone health?
Vitamin K2 helps activate osteocalcin, a protein involved in incorporating calcium into bone tissue. By supporting normal calcium metabolism and bone mineralization, vitamin K2 helps maintain strong, healthy bones. - What makes Swanson Natural Vitamin K2 unique?
Swanson Natural Vitamin K2 delivers 50 mcg of naturally fermented menaquinone-7 (MK-7), the most biologically active form of vitamin K2. Sourced from traditional Japanese natto, MK-7 has a longer half-life than other forms of vitamin K, allowing it to remain available in the body longer. - Is Swanson Natural Vitamin K2 suitable for special diets?
Swanson Natural Vitamin K2 is non-GMO. However, it is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets because the softgel contains gelatin, and it is not gluten free. Always review the product label for the most current ingredient and allergen information.
