From its dramatic discovery in bleeding chickens to its Nobel Prize-winning research, you'll learn why this overlooked nutrient is making waves in modern medicine.
She'll break down the crucial differences between vitamin K1 (the clotting agent found in greens) and K2 (the bone-and-heart protector in fermented foods), and reveal why most people are dangerously low in K2 without even knowing it. Discover the hidden signs of deficiency that your doctor might miss, from easy bruising to early bone loss, and why your gut health plays a surprising role in vitamin K status.
You'll get practical, science-backed strategies to optimize your levels through food and supplements, including:
The best dietary sources of K1 and K2
Why taking vitamin D without K2 could be doing more harm than good
How this nutrient fights arterial calcification – the hidden cause of heart disease
