What is Vitamin K and Why is it Important?
Vitamin K is a vital nutrient that helps keep your bones strong, supports normal blood clotting, and contributes to cardiovascular health. It works alongside calcium and vitamin D to ensure that calcium is absorbed into your bones rather than soft tissues. This helps to maintain bone density and strength.
While vitamin K is found in foods like leafy greens, certain lifestyles, diets, or age-related factors can make it difficult to get enough from diet alone. Supplementing with vitamin K is an effective way to support your bones, heart, and overall wellbeing.
Benefits of Vitamin K Supplements
Vitamin K has a variety of benefits within the body, so ensuring you have enough is essential. The benefits of vitamin K include:
- Bone Health - Vitamin K supplements can support the delivery of calcium to your bones. Without this vital vitamin, calcium could settle in the soft tissue. Working alongside with Vitamin D as a bone health supplement, Vitamin K helps calcium to be properly absorbed, aiding the density and strengthening of bones.
- Heart Health - as Vitamin K2 helps to prevent calcification in the arteries, it can support your heart and circulatory health.
- Blood Clotting - stimulating proteins that are crucial for blood clotting, vitamin K supplements can aid the body in healing wounds. Without sufficient levels of this vitamin, wounds may find it difficult to heal.
Vitamin K supplements are an easy way to get the nutrients you may not be receiving from your diet. Ensuring you don't have a vitamin K deficiency help to promote your overall health.
Who Should Take Vitamin K Supplements?
There are multiple groups of people who can benefit from Vitamin K supplements in particular:
- Teenagers - taking Vitamin K during teenage years can help to safeguard against both bone and cardiovascular issues later in life.
- The elderly - as elderly people lose bone density, Vitamin K can support calcium absorption into the bones.
- Post-menopausal women - like the elderly, post-menopausal women are prone to loss of bone density due to falling levels of oestrogen. Taking a Vitamin K supplement could help to support against this.
