Puritan’s Pride Vitamin K-2 is a high-quality nutritional supplement featuring Menaquinone-7 (MK-7), the most bioavailable and long-lasting form of Vitamin K. While Vitamin K-1 is primarily for blood clotting, Vitamin K-2 acts as a "biological traffic controller" for calcium. It ensures that the calcium you consume is directed into your bones and teeth where it belongs, rather than depositing in your arteries and soft tissues where it can cause harm.
Product Type: Fat-Soluble Vitamin Supplement
Manufacturer: Puritan’s Pride (USA)
Active Ingredient: Vitamin K-2 (MK-7) — typically 50mcg or 100mcg per softgel
Pack Size: 30 or 60 Rapid Release Softgels
Route: Oral
Availability: Over-the-Counter (OTC) — Pharmacist consultation recommended
Suitable For: Adults looking to optimize bone density and cardiovascular health
This supplement provides targeted support for the skeletal and circulatory systems. It is particularly effective for:
Bone Density: Activating osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium to the bone matrix, reducing the risk of fractures and osteoporosis.
Arterial Health: Activating Matrix GLA Protein (MGP), which prevents calcium from building up in the walls of your blood vessels (arterial calcification).
Dental Health: Supporting the remineralization of teeth by directing calcium into the tooth enamel.
Synergy with Vitamin D-3: Working alongside Vitamin D to ensure that the increased calcium absorption caused by Vitamin D is safely managed by the body.
Blood Thinners (Warfarin/Coumadin): If you are taking Warfarin or other "blood-thinning" medications, you must consult your doctor or our pharmacist before taking Vitamin K-2. Vitamin K can interfere with the effectiveness of these drugs and may increase the risk of blood clots. Surgery: Discontinue use at least 2 weeks before any scheduled surgery. Pregnancy: Consult our pharmacist before use if you are pregnant or nursing.
The standard dose is one softgel daily.
Application Tips:
Take with Food: Vitamin K-2 is fat-soluble. To ensure maximum absorption, always take your softgel with a meal that contains healthy fats (such as avocado, eggs, or olive oil).
The "D-3 Connection": For the best results in bone health, many specialists recommend taking Vitamin K-2 alongside a Vitamin D-3 supplement.
Consistency: Take it at the same time each day to maintain steady levels in your tissues.
Puritan’s Pride Vitamin K-2 is generally extremely well-tolerated. Rare side effects may include mild digestive upset or a headache. If you notice any unusual bruising or persistent skin rash, stop use and consult our pharmacist.
Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C to 30°C. Keep the bottle tightly closed and away from direct sunlight, as light and heat can degrade the delicate MK-7 molecule. Keep out of reach of children.
Q: Why MK-7 instead of MK-4?
A: MK-4 leaves the body quickly. MK-7 stays in your bloodstream for up to 72 hours, providing much more consistent protection for your bones and heart with just one dose a day.
Q: Will it make my blood "too thick"?
A: In healthy individuals not on blood thinners, Vitamin K-2 does not cause excessive clotting. It simply supports the body's natural regulatory systems.
Q: Can I take this if I have "Kidney Stones"?
A: Since K-2 helps manage how calcium is used in the body, some studies suggest it may be helpful, but you should always consult your urologist first.
Q: Is it the same as the "Vitamin K" shot given to newborns?
A: No. Newborns are usually given Vitamin K-1 to prevent bleeding. Vitamin K-2 is a different form used primarily for bone and heart health in adults.
