There are two main forms:
Vitamin K1 : found in green vegetables.
Vitamin K2 : found in fermented foods and some animal products.
Both help activate proteins related to coagulation and calcium transport in the body.
Studies indicate that, in healthy individuals, the body is able to maintain an adequate balance. However, for those using anticoagulants, consistent intake is recommended.
Research is also investigating how vitamin K2 may influence calcium distribution—whether it goes to the bones or the arteries. However, results vary depending on the dose, individual health, and medication use.
The main point: consistency is more important than excess or elimination .
