This vitamin may protect against dementia and Alzheimer's.
Noting the"very promising impact" that vitamin K2 had on the brain, Mohamed El-Sherbiny, PhD, of AlMaarefa University in Saudi Arabia, who was also the senior author of the study which was performed on rats, pointed out that"Vitamin K2 can be proposed to be a promising approach to attenuate age-related disorders and preserve cognitive functions in aging individuals.
At the same time, Ben-Asher points out"the most important limitation in the study," saying"that there was no suggestion in eating behaviors." Ben-Asher explains,"It is well-known in human studies that the more saturated fat and dietary cholesterol-rich foods we consume, the more consequential and deleterious the impact on our brain health—specifically hastening the aging process and worsening cognitive abilities.
Ben-Asher also says"we must be careful to recommend any vitamin K supplements as they can interact with people who take blood-thinning medications, antibiotics, and antacids." Finally,"there is no known maximum dose that is recommended for effectiveness as well as potential danger given it's a fat-soluble vitamin and isn't easily excreted from the body, especially in large quantities.
