Vitamin K2 is essential for the activation of vitamin K-dependent proteins (VKDP), among which one of the most studied is osteocalcin (OC). This is a protein capable of binding calcium to the bone matrix, thereby strengthening the skeleton.
The activity of vitamin K2 is involved in:
Increased bone formation
Decreased bone loss
This vitamin also helps to:
Prevent calcium deposition in the walls of blood vessels
