HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin K2 as MK-7 100 mcg by Healthy Origins
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This supplement contains one active ingredient: vitamin K2 (as MK-7), at 100 micrograms per softgel. Vitamin K2 is a form of vitamin K that your body uses to regulate calcium in bone and soft tissue and to support blood clotting.
The softgel itself is made from vegetarian ingredients—a plant-based capsule, organic extra virgin olive oil, yellow beeswax, and sunflower lecithin—with no other active ingredients added.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Vitamin K2 is established as effective for treating vitamin K deficiency conditions, including low clotting factors (VKCFD) and hemorrhagic disease, and for managing warfarin anticoagulation under medical supervision. The evidence for osteoporosis is less certain—the data shows vitamin K2 is possibly effective for bone density, meaning some studies suggest a benefit, but the case isn't proven yet.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Orally, vitamin K is generally well tolerated in most people. The most common side effects are mild gastrointestinal upset—nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and stomach upset—and a small number of people experience these.
Serious reactions are very rare when taken by mouth. Vitamin K2 is rated likely safe in pregnancy and lactation.
That said, because vitamin K interacts with warfarin, if you're pregnant or breastfeeding and take any blood-thinning medication, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
If you take warfarin (Coumadin) or any blood thinner, do not start this product without talking to your doctor first. Vitamin K can reduce how well your medication works, which could put you at risk for a blood clot.
Your doctor may want to adjust your dose or check your clotting levels more often.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This is a straightforward single-ingredient supplement useful if you have a vitamin K deficiency or want to explore the possibly-effective evidence for bone health. The main caution is warfarin and related blood thinners—if you take one, check with your doctor before adding this.
For anyone else, it's generally well tolerated with only mild digestive side effects in some people.
