Discover the exceptional benefits of vitamin K2, especially its form MK-7, as Dr. Brad McEwen, a naturopath and nutritionist, joins us to reveal the nutrient's essential roles in our health and wellness.
Gain insight into the unique structural and functional differences between vitamin K1 and K2 and how these contribute to our bodily functions, from bone health to cardiovascular wellness. Delve into the potential positive impact of vitamin K2 on chronic conditions.
This episode unpacks the incredible ways vitamin K2 serves as a director of calcium in our bodies, guiding it to strengthen our bones and keep our arteries clear of calcification.
