What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

MK-7 is a single-ingredient supplement containing vitamin K2, a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a role in blood clotting and bone health. This form of vitamin K is naturally produced by bacteria and found in certain fermented foods like natto and some cheeses.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Vitamin K for blood clotting and bone health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hemorrhagic disease, Hypoprothrombinemia, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD), Warfarin anticoagulation, Osteoporosis, Coagulation — and 1 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin K is rated "Effective" for Hemorrhagic disease (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Effective" for Hypoprothrombinemia, Warfarin anticoagulation, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoporosis.

Vitamin K2 is rated effective for preventing and treating vitamin K deficiency conditions — specifically hypoprothrombinemia (low clotting ability), vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency, warfarin-related bleeding disorders, and hemorrhagic disease. There is also possibly effective evidence for osteoporosis, though the data here is less established than for clotting disorders.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin K

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Taken by mouth, vitamin K is generally well tolerated in healthy people. The most common side effects are mild and gastrointestinal — nausea, diarrhea, stomach upset, and abdominal pain.

Serious reactions are very rare and have been reported only with intravenous (IV) doses, not oral supplements like this one. The product is rated likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, though the facts advise checking with your doctor before taking supplements, since normal dietary amounts are appropriate without supplementation.

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Vitamin K.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 2 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking MK-7, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take warfarin (Coumadin) or any other blood thinner in that class. Vitamin K2 can reduce how well these medications work, and your therapy may need adjustment.

No other medication interactions are documented in our data for this ingredient.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

MK-7 is a straightforward vitamin K2 supplement suited for people with documented vitamin K deficiency or those needing support for bone health. If you take warfarin or other blood thinners, this is not compatible without your doctor's oversight and possible dose adjustments.

Talk to your own doctor or pharmacist before starting, especially if you're on any anticoagulant medication.
