The Benefits of a Vitamin K Supplement
Vitamin K2 has several functions in the body, but food sources are somewhat limited, and foods that are rich in this important nutrient have a relatively low presence in the typical Western diet. Humans have the ability to convert vitamin K1 into vitamin K2, but this is a metabolically inefficient process. Certain beneficial bacteria that naturally reside in the human digestive system synthesise vitamin K2, but the use of antibiotics and an imbalance in the microflora of the gut can disrupt the body’s ability to manufacture vitamin K2 for itself.
Simply Supplements BioGoldTM Vitamin K2 provides a reliable and convenient source of vitamin K2, helping to ensure an adequate intake. Current advice on vitamin K requirements for adults is to maintain a daily intake of 1mcg per kilogram of bodyweight, and this product easily fulfils this criteria.
Why Should I Take Vitamin K Tablets?
Vitamin K2 has a number of established functions in the human body. According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), vitamin K2 can provide the following benefits:
Bone Health
Vitamin K makes a well-established contribution to the maintenance of normal bones. It works in combination with calcium, facilitating its transportation to the skeleton and entry into the bone mass to help build and strengthen bones.
Blood Clotting
Vitamin K also contributes to the process of normal blood clotting. It is understood that the metabolism of a number of proteins involved in blood coagulation is dependent on vitamin K. A classic symptom of vitamin K deficiency is an increased risk of excessive bleeding.

While there are several different types of vitamin K tablets on the market, the most proven and bioavailable form is K2. Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble vitamin, and, just like all fat-soluble vitamins, it is normally susceptible to degradation. However, BioGold™ Vitamin K2 100mcg features an advanced formula that has been developed to be stable as well as bioavailable, so that its potency is not lost in storage. Each high-strength tablet is made in the UK under GMP approved conditions, and strict quality control procedures ensure that no tablet exhibits any characteristics of capping or lamentation.
