As we journey through adulthood, maintaining an active lifestyle emerges as paramount. Reaching peak bone mass and navigating age-related arterial stiffening become crucial considerations.
In recent years, especially due to the pandemic, our perspectives on health and wellness have shifted. We now evaluate our well-being through metrics such as physical vitality, mental acuity, and emotional balance. Here, we explore the foundational attributes of MenaQ7® Vitamin K2 and its proven effectiveness in supporting an active lifestyle.
Strategies for Maintaining Bone Mass and Strength
Peak bone mass, typically attained around age 30, forms the basis for skeletal strength. Ensuring strong bones beyond this stage is essential to sustaining our valued high activity lifestyle. This can be achieved through physical activity like weight training and proper nutrition. Vitamin K2 plays a pivotal role in directing calcium towards bones, ensuring resilience and strength in the years ahead. Our 3-year study confirmed the bone-supporting effects of Vitamin K2, showing that a daily dose of 180 mcg MenaQ7® Vitamin K2 improved bone mineral content, density, and strength.
Supporting Robust Cardiovascular Health
Maintaining robust cardiovascular health is a prerequisite for maintaining physical activity. Keeping our arteries flexible and healthy is, in fact, a regulated process that we, through our lifestyle choices, can influence, ensuring our cells get all the nourishment they need through good blood flow. Supplementing with MenaQ7® Vitamin K2 is a proven strategy to decrease arterial stiffness and increase elasticity. As such, it is an easy strategy to keep your heart as strong as the rest of you.
Beyond Heart and Bone
While the roles of Vitamin K2 in bone and cardiovascular health are well documented, ongoing research is uncovering potential cognitive benefits. Recent studies on MenaQ7® emphasize vitamin K2’s ability to regulate oxidative stress and inflammation. Additionally, it activates vitamin K-dependent proteins and enhances mitochondrial function, potentially offering a holistic approach to cognitive well-being.
Deep Dive Into K2
Significant research shows vitamin K2 from natural fermentation – especially its key long chain isomers MK-7 – to be essential for bone and cardiovascular-health support.
