Super K Elite delivers a variety of vitamin K forms at clinically-studied dosages designed to give you optimum health benefits. Vitamin K helps inhibit calcification in the arteries and promotes healthy calcium absorption into bones for healthy calcium balance.1,2
The sub forms of vitamin K2 are called menaquinones. Primarily derived from high-fat foods, vitamin K2, which includes the forms MK-4, MK-6, MK-7 and MK-9, supports bone, heart and arterial health.4-6
Trans-MK-7 helps maintain bone strength and arterial flexibility.11,12 We deliver 181 mcg, the same dosage studied in double-blind, placebo-controlled trials measuring bone and cardiovascular health.12,13
