Might want to peruse
PUBMED and search "menatetrenone" and read the Menatetrenone studies. There's a lot of research on
K2 Menatetrenone. Other than the cautions we disclose on our site, it is effective for "bone support" and
very well tolerated. I see no warning of increased heart attack risk in any of the studies.
HOWEVER- any individual under a doctors care would be well advised to seek their counsel before using any supplements.RI
vitamin k2 menatetrenone found here.
Most all the studies used a 15-45 mg dose. 5 mg is simply not a meaningful dose, or cost efficient, do your price per mg math. Note also the Mk-4 Menatetrenone is the only Vitamin K form to provide benefits. Other suppliers will sell a cheaper version of k2 to try to monetize consumers not being fully informed.
"A randomized clinical intervention
study among 325 postmenopausal women receiving either placebo or
45 mg/day of vitamin K(2) (MK-4, menatetrenone) during three years."
"
Treatment with
45 mg vitamin K2...for 48 weeks resulted in a significant increase in lumbar BMD"
"Previous
studies demonstrated the efficacy of vitamin K2
(45 mg/day) to prevent bone loss and reduce the rate of vertebral fractures..."
K2 is an awesome product, well tolerated, for folks needing bone health support, with much credible evidence for its efficacy.
