Sports Research® Vitamin K2 as MK-7 100mcg, 60 Count Plantgels™

One of the top vitamins that most people missed. This is essential when taking D3 vitamins l. It helps the body absorb D3, especially for women. It helps with my arthritic knee. Easy to swallow and no bad taste or smell.

We really like the vitamins from Sports Research. This is a reputable company that we've been purchasing from for the last 6 years. They contain coconut oil (MCT) and they are Non- GMO.

I take this Vitamin K2 with vitamin D3. I love the fact that they are small and a gel type of supplement, easy to swallow, has no flavor and no smell. I also am able to take on an empty stomach and it doesn't cause any gastric issues. I have noticed with recent blood work that my vitamin D levels have increased vs my previous test that showed it was lower than normal. I also noticed a reduction of my total cholesterol (not sure if it has to do with the K2), but I found it surprising.

Easy to swallow, didn't experience any digestion issues, soft gel as per description, tendency to stick onto each other, , but shook the container prior to opening the bottle, and that helped, tasteless,kept its shape ,overall a good product, will buy again.

Very healthy.

Great product if you’re looking for a standalone or stacker for k2

Excellent y llego rapido

I have been using this Sports Research K2 MK7 for 3 years daily since it has added coconut oil for better absorption and is made from fermented chickpeas and not natto without all the fillers of other brands as well. I see that it no longer contains carrageenan since 2/2017 as some other old reviews mentioned. My dentist is going to go out of business if I keep using it as I've had far less plaque and no cavities and far less time in the cleaning chair. Hopefully my arteries arent clogged as much with calcium deposits anymore as well. Magnesium converts vitamin D into its active form so that it can help calcium absorption. Magnesium also stimulates the release of the hormone calcitonin, which helps to preserve bone structure and draws calcium out of the blood and soft tissues back into the bones where it is needed to build healthy bone structure. Vitamin K is what activates the calcitonin and matrix Gla protein to help improve bone mineralization. Vitamin K is like the ignition that turns the machine on - shielding the body from excess calcium. Once turned on, matrix Gla protein grabs calcium. The majority of Americans are vitamin K deficient, especially in the menaquinone (K2) variety which is found in foods such as natto (fermented soybeans) that are not eaten regularly in an American diet. Menaquinone-7, or MK-7, is the most biologically active and available form of vitamin K2 and Sports Research is the one I use for the supplementation. As you increase the dose of Vitamin K2 above 100, the activation of calcitonin increases in line with the dosage. One of the simplest ways to explain vitamin K2's importance is to say it has two crucial functions having to do with cardiovascular health and bone restoration. It helps prevent osteoporosis and hardening of the arteries. It directs calcium to places like your bones to make them stronger, and your teeth to help prevent cavities. It also prevents calcium from going to the wrong areas, such as to your kidneys, where it could lead to kidney stones, or your blood vessels, where it could lead to heart disease. A few other less known benefits: Optimizing sexual function by increasing testosterone and fertility in men, and decreasing androgens, the male hormones, in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) Creating insulin to stabilize your blood sugar (keeping your system sensitive to maintaining correct amounts), protecting against diabetes and helping to prevent metabolic problems associated with obesity Suppressing genes that can promote cancer while strengthening genes that promote healthy cells Enhancing your ability to utilize energy as you exercise improving overall performance A study in Rotterdam involving 4,809 Dutch adults determined that those with the highest vitamin K2 intake had fewer heart attacks, a lower aortic calcification risk and the lowest death rate, altogether. Has my review been of help to you? If so, would you consider hitting the "helpful" button below? I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

Purchased this to treat metabolic syndrome as it appeared to be a critical element I was not getting in my diet, careful though I have been. Too early to tell the effects yet but this will show up in gradually-lowering blood pressure as well as blood sugar. Expect significant reversal effects of the sugar and pressure within 6 months. Natural source and processing method should ensure a quality product. Very pleased to discover its availability; cannot find this locally. Thank you Amazon! UPDATE [Feb 28/2018]: Have been using the product for about a year now. Recently saw the concerns about the presence of carrageenan and cornstarch. I knew about the dangers of cornstarch but was uninformed about carrageenan. [Thank you alert consumers who do reviews!]. Guess I got an 'old product' as well since the 'other ingredients' now omit the offending materials in the original bottles images posted on Amazon. I've changed brands for now and shall see how this goes. On the plus side, I too experienced reductions in joint inflammation after several months; I've been hoping for more progress with clearing arterial plaque but only recently learned my magnesium is low . . . an essential metal for cell balance; just started a supplement . . . BUT my cholesterol has been improving and I'm off almost all the pharmaceuticals I'd been prescribed. My doctors and supporting health professionals know almost nothing about nutrition (which, sadly, includes several nutritionists I've met); they do 'mean well' however. Unfortunately ignorance, while blissful, can also be lethal. Kudos to those in the consumer community who do their 'due diligence' in terms of investigation. Thank you Amazon for the feedback venue you provide which enables us to 'share opinions'. Support of such 'grass root' sources is most appreciated. Learning never stops: "You shall know the truth and the truth SHALL make you free". Wise words from one of my 'historic heroes'.

I've been taking Sports Research Vitamin K2 as MK7 with Organic Coconut Oil for a few weeks now, and I'm already noticing a difference in my overall health. The fact that it's non-GMO verified and vegan certified was a huge plus for me, and I love that it's made with MenaQ7 from fermented chickpeas. The veggie-softgels are easy to swallow and don't have any aftertaste, which is great. I've noticed an improvement in my bone health and blood clotting since I started taking this supplement, and I feel good knowing that I'm giving my body the nutrients it needs. Overall, I highly recommend Sports Research Vitamin K2 as MK7 with Organic Coconut Oil to anyone looking for a high-quality supplement to support their health.

We bout some D3 vitamin and later on relized, it has better absorption if taken with K2 vitamin. This product was the best 👌 after our research specially because it is vegetarian.

Good with D3

Happy with product. Taking it with D3 daily and seems to boost efficiency, helps with our seasonal effective disorder it seems and will be happily taking daily for the entire year, forever, assuming the price doesn't go up.
