so I want to talk about this incredible

vitamin k2 okay I have other videos on

this but this is some additional data

now vitamin k1 has everything to do with

coagulating proteins is basically

binding proteins and helping forming

clots okay

stopping bleeding it’s very very

important it’s also involved in bone

information and it’s recycled okay so

your body usually is not very deficient

in vitamin k1 it’s in leafy greens k2 on

the other hand is very different a lot

of people are deficient in it it’s not

recycled very readily and it basically

binds calcium in the bone and it also

helps transport calcium out of the soft

tissues so it takes calcium from the

places that shouldn’t be and it puts it

into place that it should be but it’s

also involved in your metabolism as far

as the mitochondria in turning that food

into energy so let’s say for example you

exercise and you last a certain time

period you kind of like run at a gas or

you don’t have the endurance k2 can help

you go longer it can increase your

cardiac output I’ve noticed this when I

I had this huge hill at my house it’s

gigantic right and for quite a long time

I could only make it halfway out start

taking k2 and I’ve also taken other

things like b1 from some other

supplements I have but vitamin k2 is

just dramatic it just allows me to come

right up without any stops it just gives

me more endurance and more a sustained

strength so it’s quite remarkable it’s

but it all has to do with what’s

happening at the cellular level inside

the mitochondria there’s several

different types of vitamin k2 Mk

versions you have MK 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

11 12 13 14 so you have a lot of

different versions of k2 but the ones

you can get in supplement form are MK 4

and MK 7 the one that I recommend is MK

7 because it’s natural it’s not

synthetic

but vitamin k2 originates from bacteria

okay in animals and humans we could

actually make a little bit of it but in

grass-fed animal products and liver egg

yolks meats cheese certain cheese’s

I said liver already and also fermented

foods there’s a product called Nadeau

which is a fermented soybean I think

they use it in Japan that has vitamin k2

now who would benefit from vitamin k2

those people who have a history of

taking anti acids usually always

deficient in k2 if you had a history of

taking a lot of antibiotics you’re gonna

have a deficiency in k2 as well or

you’re on statins or you have gi

problems any type of diverticulitis or

earlobe bowel syndrome or IBS or Crohn’s

any type of scar tissue

this is the fat soluble vitamin so we

need a good digestive system to absorb

it if you’re taking vitamin d3 you need

to be taking k2 because they both work

together if you take just vitamin d3

without k2 potentially you could

increase your calcium too high in the

tissues because we want the k2 to pull

out that calcium excess if you’re taking

calcium you need to take k2 because k2

tells the calcium where to go if you’re

menopausal okay you need k2y to actually

prevent bone loss okay heart problems

cardiovascular weaknesses the main thing

about Kate - is it actually prevents

calcification through the arteries the

blood vessels the soft tissue so it can

work to help keep the arteries free of

calcium deposits and also if you’re

pregnant you need k2

very very important also if you have

arthritis k2 can help you or

inflammation it can help you alright
