Vitamin K2 is a nutrient that plays a role in skin health, bone metabolism, proper brain function, and preventing heart-related diseases. It also helps in the body's use of calcium to build bones and inhibits blood vessel calcification. Vitamin K2 can be found in dairy, fermented foods, and animal products, while Vitamin K1 is found in leafy greens, vegetables, and some plant oils. Taking 1mg or less of vitamin K supplements a day is unlikely to cause any harm. Vitamin D3 should be taken with vitamin K2 to ensure that calcium is deposited in the bones and not in the arteries.
