Highlights the essential role of vitamin K2 in regulating calcium in the body. Its main function is to remove calcium from soft tissues like arteries and joints and direct it to bones and teeth, helping prevent osteoporosis and arterial calcification. Vitamin K2 can be obtained from foods such as Natto and grass-fed dairy, or converted from vitamin K1 in leafy greens, assuming the gut contains the necessary microbes. Magnesium is critical for K2 to work effectively, while factors like antibiotics or a low-fat diet can impair its function. The transcript recommends using the MK7 form of vitamin K2 and following a specific ratio with vitamin D3 when supplementing.
