Expiration Date:

Nov 2018
Expiration DateThe length of time for the expiration date or “best used before” date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Vitamin K is well known for its role in the synthesis of a number of blood coagulation factors. During recent years however, Vitamin K2 and its dependent proteins have been discovered to be of vital importance for bone and vascular health. These Vitamin K2-dependent proteins are now known to play pivotal roles in the physiology of bone mineralization, as well as in the maintenance of vascular elasticity. NOW MK-7 contains a highly biologically active form of Vitamin K2 derived from non-GMO natto, a traditional Japanese fermented soyfood.

Customer reviews about the product:
It also keeps calcium from building up in your arteries. You don’t want that! This is how athletes like distance runners have heart attacks. They take in too much calcium and not enough magnesium and K2.
I was diagnosed with calcific deposites in my rototor cuff tendon. It has been debilitating.
I took this for a few months and my shoulder injury is finally improving. I found the most benefit when I trippled the dose to 300mg a day. For maintenance 100-200mg should be good.
This is the MK7 version of K2 vs. the MK4. The MK4 type has a shorter half life so you need to take more of it to get the same effect. I found taking 3 pills a day of this MK7 product is working well for my shoulder issue. For maintenance I will dial it back to 1 a day.
Although this is a fat soluable vitamin there is no research suggesting any toxicity issues. People should feel safe taking 2 or 3 of these a day. There is a prominent ND in Canada who has researched this topic and has come to this conclusion.
To help insure calcium is absorbed into the bone and teeth take K2 with your Cal/Mag.
I gave this 4 stars because contains soy which some people need to avoid. It is not a lot but people need to be aware of it. If a small amount of soy is not an issue for you this is an excellent choice.

Peace and good health.
A must have for bone strength and to prevent hardening of the arteries. It also regulates calcium so it dosen’t bild up in the arteries if you take a calcium supplement.
I take some Natto about once a week to keep my levels up… but if I don’t the plaque on the back of my teeth comes back.
Nonetheless I’m sure it’s working even at this tiny dose… as if I don’t take it the plaque comes back even faster.
Wish they’d bring out a 200 ug dose… as this would probably be sufficient.
A slightly bigger bottle of the stuff would be nice… as 60 tabs doesn’t last very long… and starts to get expensive real fast.
Nonetheless this is currently my favourite K2… as the 5 mg K2 (MK4) synthetic while effective is not as nice and the effects don’t last as long ie. K2 Mk7 has more persistence in the body.
every other day and skip the weekends.
the natto beans I took previously. Can anyone comment
and compare this with Dr Mercola’s?
