![]() I think perhaps it should be made clear that the study is talking about Vitamin K1( phylloquinone) and not vitamin K2.
The only problem with the validity of the study is the method used for testing, homeostasis,(HOMA-IR), which measures fasting glucose levels and has been found in other studies to be not as reliable as the more expensive method of testing glucose levels directly. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...gdbfrom=pubmed https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...gdbfrom=pubmed Despite this problem its good to know that vitamin K1 is just as important as vitamin K2 for artery health by helping to keep lower insulin resistance levels.

![]() Thanks for adding some perspective to the abstract, Liverock.
At the moment, I get about 1 mg of K1 in my multi and an additional 200 mcg of K1 & K2 in a separate supplement. And, whatever I manage to extract from my diet - from broccoli, avocados, green tea, etc. Hopefully, that's a pretty good mix.
