What is Vitamin K2?
Vitamin K2 is an essential nutrient that plays an important role in blood coagulation and bone health. It helps regulate calcium distribution in the body by directing calcium to the appropriate areas, such as bones and teeth, and away from areas where it may be harmful, such as blood vessels and kidneys.
Why should you have Vitamin K2 tested?
Testing Vitamin K2 levels can be useful for assessing whether someone is at risk of bone demineralization (osteoporosis) or cardiovascular diseases. It can also help identify a deficiency, which is particularly important for people taking certain medications that affect Vitamin K absorption, or for those with restricted diets.
What does it indicate?
The levels of Vitamin K2 in the blood can be indicative of the efficiency of blood coagulation processes in the body and how well calcium is utilized and stored in the bones.
What does a high Vitamin K2 level mean?
A high level of Vitamin K2 is generally considered positive, as it indicates good calcium metabolism and a lower risk of bone demineralization and vascular problems.
What does a low Vitamin K2 level mean?
A low level of Vitamin K2 may indicate a risk for bone demineralization, cardiovascular diseases, and reduced blood coagulation. It may suggest a deficiency that needs to be addressed through dietary adjustments or supplementation.
