Now Foods Vitamin K2 100 Mcg 100 Veg Capsul

Description:

Now Foods Vitamin K2 100 mcg 100 Veg Capsules is a dietary supplement designed to support bone health, cardiovascular health, and proper calcium metabolism. Each vegetarian capsule provides 100 mcg of vitamin K2, typically in the menaquinone-7 (MK-7) form derived from natto (fermented soybeans), known for its superior bioavailability and longer half-life in the body compared to vitamin K1. This supplement is suitable for adults seeking to optimize their vitamin K2 intake, especially those concerned about bone density, arterial calcification, or overall cardiovascular wellness. The product is formulated in veg capsules, making it appropriate for vegetarians and many individuals with common dietary restrictions. It is not a medication and should be used as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

Indications:

• Supports healthy bone density and bone mineralization, especially in adults at risk of low bone mass.
• Promotes proper calcium utilization by helping direct calcium into bones and teeth rather than soft tissues.
• Helps maintain healthy cardiovascular function by supporting normal arterial elasticity and reducing the risk of inappropriate calcium deposition in blood vessels.
• Supports normal blood clotting function as vitamin K is essential for the activation of clotting factors.
• May support overall skeletal and cardiovascular health in individuals with low dietary intake of vitamin K2.
• Suitable for vegetarians and individuals seeking a veg capsule form of vitamin K2.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7, MK-7) – 100 mcg per capsule (exact form and additional vitamin K2 details may vary by batch; full composition should be confirmed on the product label).
• Other ingredients (excipients, capsule shell, etc.): full ingredient list and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website and should be checked directly on the product packaging.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Recommended dose for adults: take 1 capsule once daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
• Take with a meal, preferably one containing some dietary fat, to enhance absorption of this fat-soluble vitamin.
• Swallow the capsule whole with a sufficient amount of water; do not chew or open unless advised by a healthcare professional.
• Do not exceed the recommended daily dose unless specifically instructed by your doctor or pharmacist.
• For individuals taking anticoagulant (blood thinner) medications such as warfarin, acenocoumarol, or similar, use only under strict medical supervision, as vitamin K2 can affect blood clotting parameters.
• Intended for adult use only; not recommended for children unless prescribed by a healthcare provider.
• Use consistently for best results as part of a long-term bone and cardiovascular health regimen, unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Clinical Benefits:

• Supports bone strength and density by activating osteocalcin, a protein involved in binding calcium to the bone matrix.
• Helps maintain cardiovascular health by activating matrix Gla-protein (MGP), which helps prevent inappropriate calcium buildup in arteries.
• Promotes efficient calcium metabolism, helping ensure calcium is directed to bones and teeth rather than soft tissues.
• Supports normal blood clotting functions, which rely on vitamin K–dependent clotting factors.
• Provides a convenient, once-daily veg capsule format suitable for vegetarians and individuals with common dietary restrictions.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Do not use this product if you are allergic or hypersensitive to vitamin K, soy (if present), or any of the capsule ingredients; check the product label for the full ingredient list.
• Patients taking anticoagulant (blood thinning) medications (e.g., warfarin, acenocoumarol, heparin, or similar) must consult their doctor before using vitamin K2, as it can interfere with the action of these medicines and may require dose adjustments and close monitoring of INR or other clotting tests.
• Use with caution if you have a history of blood clotting disorders or are at high risk of thrombosis; medical supervision is recommended.
• Consult your doctor before use if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding, as safety data in these groups are limited.
• If you have chronic liver disease, kidney disease, or any serious medical condition, seek medical advice before starting this supplement.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional if you experience any unusual symptoms or suspected adverse reactions.

Side Effects:

• Most individuals tolerate vitamin K2 at recommended doses without significant side effects.
• Possible mild gastrointestinal symptoms may include stomach discomfort, nausea, or diarrhea in sensitive individuals.
• Allergic reactions (such as rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, or difficulty breathing) are rare but require immediate medical attention.
• In individuals on anticoagulant therapy, inappropriate use may alter blood clotting and increase the risk of clotting or bleeding complications; regular medical monitoring is essential.
• If any severe or persistent side effects occur, stop using the product and consult your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
