3-Year Study Finds Vitamin K2 (MK-7) Helps Prevent Bone Loss in Postmenopausal Women
Dr. Kumar’s Take:
This 3-year randomized study adds strong evidence that daily low-dose Vitamin K2 (MK-7) can help reduce bone loss in postmenopausal women. The supplement improved markers of vitamin K status, preserved bone mineral density in the spine, and improved femoral bone strength compared to placebo. These benefits took time—only emerging after 2–3 years—so consistency and patience are key.
If you’re postmenopausal and looking for non-drug ways to support bone health, this is a compelling case for adding MK-7 to your routine.
