On the other hand, in several, an excessive rate of arterial calcium is observed, which causes atherosclerosis or hardening of the arteries. This co-occurrence, seemingly contradictory, is called \"paradox of calcium\". In fact, it has been shown that for each 1.5% decrease in bone density, a 30% increase in the risk of death caused by cardiovascular disease is observed. More and more studies show that vitamin K plays a vital role in the prevention of the calcium paradox by contributing to what calcium is lodging where it must be in the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe role of vitamin K2 \u003cbr\u003eTo strengthen bones, vitamin K2 is essential. Vitamin K acts by regulating the calcium metabolism by the body and helps to direct it towards the parts of the body where it is necessary, like the skeleton, and to divert the systems where it could have a negative effect, for example the Arteries and cardiovascular apparatus. There are two main forms of vitamin K2:the MK-4 and the MK-7. Although both are effective in improving bone health, the MK-7 is the natural form of vitamin K, that is used by the body. The MK-7 is better absorbed and remains in the body longer, which means that its effective dose is far below that of the MK-4.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen leafy vegetables usually provide vitamin K intake to a majority of Canadians. However, many supposed foods rich in vitamin K have been revealed to be much less than thought. To support bone health as it should be, preferred nutrition vitamin K2 contains an optimal dose in its mk-7 form easily absorbed by the body.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Preferred Nutrition","offers":[{"title":"60 caps","offer_id":40381098164432,"sku":"0062882600116","price":12.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/8545\/6592\/files\/preferred-nutrition-vitamine-k2-100mcg.jpg?v=1776702074","url":"https:\/\/lelosigdtlsv.shop\/en\/products\/vitamine-k2-100-mcg","provider":"La Moisson ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
