If you are wondering why your physician has not suggested that you take vitamin K or vitamins in general, it is due to the fact that the current state of medical education and practice is heavily focused on poly-pharmacy which is the prescribing of multiple synthetic drugs as a primary mode of treatment. Koncentrated K is formulated to address those deficiencies. Research has shown that many people do not have enough vitamin K in their bodies to maintain basic health requirements, much less to gain the health and curative benefits it offers. Koncentrated K includes these key vitamins at a biologically effective dosage, meaning it contains enough of the K vitamins to maintain your regular bodily requirements as well as the extra amounts your body may need to reverse the disease process that can begin as a result of a vitamin K deficiency. Koncentrated K is in the form of a capsule that is formulated with vitamin K1, Mk7, Mk4, and Astaxanthin which is considered to the be the best anti-oxidant available. Vitamin K2 is a subgroup of the K family, and research has identified two types of vitamin K2, Mk7 and Mk4, to be highly beneficial to different organs and systems of the body. Vitamin K1 is typically known for its role in blood clotting, but as you will read, the research indicates it is vital to the healthy functioning of many bodily tissues. The following is a brief review of the short history of Vitamin K research, a synopsis of the emerging research to date, our personal experience and knowledge of what dosages would be apparently restorative, and an understanding of the product Koncentrated K, which contains concentrated doses of several different types of Vitamin K, along with astaxanthin.
This website intends to provide an understanding of the vital role that Vitamin K and the Vitamin K derivatives, apparently play in the wellbeing of the body. The strength connection between calcium and vitamin K2 has been described in the so-called calcium paradox where the highest rates of hip fractures occur in the countries with the highest calcium consumption.Īs defined by EFSA in the “Scientific Opinion on Dietary Reference Values for calcium” (May 2015), hypercalcaemia is unlikely to occur with high intake of calcium from the diet alone but can be caused by high-dose calcium supplements, especially when accompanied by vitamin D supplements, as these can increase calcium absorption.Vitamin K and its "Brothers and Sisters" are one of the least recognized but most indispensable vitamins in the human body, and it appears that many people are deficient.
This happens because the action of Vitamin K2 is impaired: vitamin K2 as MK-7 does not activate enough calcium-regulating vitamin-K2 dependent proteins, such as osteocalcin – making it able to put calcium in the bones – and the vascular protein MGP – which inhibits arterial calcification.Īdditionally Vitamin D also acts increasing the production of vitamin K2-dependent proteins, thereby raising the body’s demand of vitamin K2. This accumulation can lead to calcification in the vessel wall of our arteries with clinical relevant consequences, such as cardiovascular accidents and bone fractures. With low levels of vitamin K2, there are a simultaneous lack of calcium in the bone and an increased concentration in the blood.
