YOUR SUPPLIER OF VITAMIN K2

Vit­a­min K2 is a fat-sol­u­ble vit­a­min that belongs to the group of vit­a­min K com­pounds. It plays an impor­tant role in the human body, espe­cial­ly in cal­ci­um metab­o­lism and bone health. A sup­pli­er of vit­a­min K2 can the­o­ret­i­cal­ly offer dif­fer­ent forms of the vit­a­min, such as MK‑4 or MK‑7.

The main func­tion of vit­a­min K2 is to reg­u­late cal­ci­um in the body. It acti­vates spe­cif­ic pro­teins respon­si­ble for the incor­po­ra­tion of cal­ci­um into the bones and pro­tec­tion against cal­ci­um deposits in the arter­ies. This helps main­tain bone health and reduce the risk of ath­er­o­scle­ro­sis and osteoporosis.

Vit­a­min K2 as a raw mate­r­i­al is avail­able on the mar­ket in var­i­ous forms. MAGNESIA is a sup­pli­er of vit­a­min K2 in the form of pow­der and oil. Both vari­ants can be flex­i­bly inte­grat­ed into exist­ing for­mu­la­tions and fine­ly dosed. Man­u­fac­tur­ers of nutri­tion­al sup­ple­ments can thus pro­duce cap­sules, tablets, liq­uids or even pow­ders in which vit­a­min K2 can be com­bined with oth­er ingre­di­ents. In the food sec­tor, it is con­ceiv­able, for exam­ple, to enrich dairy prod­ucts such as yogurt or cheese, bread or mues­li with vit­a­min K2.

There are a lot of providers, man­u­fac­tur­ers and sup­pli­ers of vit­a­min K2 on the mar­ket. When choos­ing a sup­pli­er, it is impor­tant to look for qual­i­ty and reli­a­bil­i­ty. Rep­utable sup­pli­ers should pro­vide clear infor­ma­tion about the ori­gin of their prod­ucts, the pro­duc­tion stan­dards applied and inde­pen­dent qual­i­ty con­trols. MAGNESIA is a sup­pli­er of vit­a­min K2 to busi­ness cus­tomers in the food man­u­fac­tur­ing, nutri­tion­al sup­ple­ment, phar­ma­ceu­ti­cal, and cos­met­ics industries.

Chal­lenges and risks in sourc­ing vit­a­min K2 include lim­it­ed avail­abil­i­ty of the raw mate­r­i­al in the mar­ket, ensur­ing qual­i­ty and puri­ty, sta­bil­i­ty of the raw mate­r­i­al dur­ing trans­porta­tion and stor­age, vary­ing prices, and com­pli­ance with reg­u­la­to­ry require­ments. To over­come these issues, it is impor­tant to empha­size a trust­wor­thy and trans­par­ent sup­pli­er. MAGNESIA ensures with reg­u­lar qual­i­ty con­trols, appro­pri­ate pack­ag­ing and con­trolled stor­age con­di­tions as well as com­pli­ance with legal require­ments, mak­ing it a trust­wor­thy sup­pli­er of vit­a­min K2. You can thus use the raw mate­r­i­al for your prod­ucts with­out hesitation.

There are sev­er­al types of vit­a­min K2, which dif­fer in their bio­chem­i­cal struc­ture. MK‑4 is a form of vit­a­min K2 found in ani­mal prod­ucts such as meat and eggs. MK‑7, on the oth­er hand, is pro­duced by the fer­men­ta­tion of bac­te­ria and is found in fer­ment­ed foods such as nat­to and some cheeses. MK‑7 is often con­sid­ered the pre­ferred form of vit­a­min K2 due to its longer half-life and bet­ter bioavail­abil­i­ty. Due to its bet­ter bioavail­abil­i­ty com­pared to MK‑4, the effec­tive dose of MK‑7 is lower.
