Super K Complex Vitamin K1 & K2 - 90 Capsules

Powerful trio: phytomenadione (K1), menaquinone MK-4 and menaquinone MK-7

We know the fat-soluble vitamin K primarily as an essential nutrient for the blood coagulation. Scientists discovered that the body contains further vitamin K-dependent proteins, including osteocalcin, which regulates the bone mineralisation, and the matrix Gla-protein (MGP), which inhibits calcium deposits in soft tissues such as cartilages and blood vessels.

Different forms of vitamin K combined

The vitamin K-group includes several compounds, which have a common structure element. We combined three of these vitamin K compounds synergistically in this product:

• vitamin K1, which occurs primarily in green (leafy) vegetables, algae and plant oils
• MK-4, the fastest absorbed form of K2
• vitamin K2 MK-7, which has a very long half-life in the body

Which foods contain vitamin K?

Especially green (leafy) vegetables are a good source of vitamin K. For example, kale contains over 0,8mg vitamin K/100mg, spinach over 0,3mg/100g.
Sauerkraut, Brussels sprouts, red cabbage, dairy products, meat and eggs also contain vitamin K.
It should be noted that vitamin K is UV-sensitive, which means that vegetables should be stored in a dark place.

How is vitamin K absorbed?

Due to its fat-solubility, vitamin K is absorbed like fats with the help of bile acids and enzymes of the pancreas into the intestinal cells. Afterwards, it is transported in fat transporters, so-called chylomicrons, via the lymph system to the liver. There it is stored or packed into fat-protein-compounds (low-density lipoprotein - LDL), in which it is transported to the cells via the blood. The cellular LDL receptors absorb the vitamin K.
