Vitamin K2 Hevert 100 µg

Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting and maintaining healthy bones

The term "“vitamin K” actually refers to a group that contains several very chemically similar substances. The form used today in most food supplements and also in this Hevert product is vitamin K2 (menaquinone or MK-7). This form of the vitamin has the advantage of good distribution in the body and a particularly long-lasting effect.

Vitamin K plays an important role in many bodily functions, and research is still ongoing. It has long been known that vitamin K is necessary for the activation of coagulation factors and thus plays its part in the complex process of blood coagulation. The significance of the vitamin for the health of the blood vessels, which are often damaged by arteriosclerosis with increasing age, is still under investigation.

A further main task of vitamin K is the regulation of the calcium balance. It is primarily involved in the formation of osteocalcin, an endogenous messenger substance that plays an important role in bone formation. In this way, vitamin K has a significant influence on the density and stability of the bones. Vitamin K can be absorbed through food. Good sources of vitamin K are green vegetables and vegetable oils as well as animal-based foods such as meat, cheese, quark (curd cheese), poultry, and eggs.
