K vitamins are a group of fat soluble vitamins that are essential for the body to utilize calcium for healthy bones, healthy arteries and tissues. In addition to Vitamin K's effects on blood coagulation , the role of Vitamin K2 over the past decade has been linked also to two of the most important health issues, bone health and cardiovascular health. This link specifically centres on calcium utilization- implying that there is simultaneous calcification of the arteries (arterial calcification) and bone loss (osteoporosis) when metabolism of calcium is inadequate. This is called the "Calcium Paradox" and vitamin K2 plays a vital role in this "double-jeopardy" situation, by activating crucial proteins responsible for promoting bone density, inhibiting bone loss and inhibiting vascular calcification.

Scientific research shows that inadequate levels of Vitamin K2 may contribute significantly to the development of Arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and Osteoporosis (bone decalcification). Critical to both processes, Vitamin K2 is the essential vitamin for effective calcium utilization, by producing opposite effects in bone and blood vessels.
