Research Findings on Vitamin K2 and Bone Health Full of Flaws

Dear Reader,

Women, don't let anyone talk you into giving up your vitamin K. Your bones need this vitamin more than you know.

Prominent bone health researchers are refuting a new placebo-controlled trial from Norway that suggests vitamin K curbs bone loss no better than placebo in post-menopausal women.

Design errors

But the design of this trial has two big problems.

ONE: More than 340 post-menopausal women received either placebo or vitamin K2, 360 micrograms daily — a dose that can only be described as meagre.

TWO: The trial lasted just one year. As one doctor said, "All vitamin K intervention trials lasting less than 2 years have unfortunately contributed to confusion regarding the effect of vitamin K supplement."

Despite these problems, the trial produced one promising result.

Your bones MUST have a protein called osteocalcin. Without it, bones can't utilize calcium to build strength. In this study, levels of osteocalcin were boosted in the K2 group, but not in the placebo group.

Experts say that rising osteocalcin is an important bio- marker that shows up before bone strengthening begins.

Let's try this again...

I wonder what a K2 bone study might look like with a generous dosage and a lengthy intervention.

A while ago, I told you about a study from the Netherlands. Researchers recruited 325 postmenopausal women without osteoporosis. Half the women received a placebo and half received vitamin K2, 45 milligrams per day.

That dosage is 125 times larger than the Norwegian study!

The intervention period: three years.

Results: Bending strength, compression strength, and impact strength all improved in the K2 group, but not in the placebo group. Also, bone mineral content and femoral neck width increased in the K2 group, but not in the placebo group.

The detail about the femoral neck is a key point.

The femoral neck is a narrow section of the femur (thigh bone) located just below the ball-and-socket hip joint. When the femoral neck is fractured, the femur is often disconnected from the ball. In an ageing population, that's a common and very painful fracture.

Dietary sources of K2 include meat, liver, egg yolk, and fermented products such as yoghurt and cheese. Vitamin K1 is mostly found in dark, leafy green vegetables and is converted to K2 in the intestine.

...and another thing

Should we be aghast?

An investigation from Harvard Medical School and the Cambridge Health Alliance, in the US, reveals that a number of major insurance companies own stock in the fast-food industry.

How much stock?

A LOT!

A cluster of US, Canadian, and European health and life insurance companies own nearly $2 billion worth of stock in McDonald's, KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, Jack in the Box, etc.

In a Cambridge Health Alliance press release, the lead researcher had this to say: "Our data illustrate the extent to which the insurance industry seeks to turn a profit above all else. Safeguarding people's health and well-being take a back seat to making money."

Obviously HE'S aghast.

But should we be surprised that the insurance industry seeks to turn a profit above all else? It's like saying a quarterback seeks to put the ball in the end zone above all else.

It's what they do!

And since when do insurance companies safeguard people's health and well-being? Well, I mean other than TV advertisements where insurance reps couldn't be more thoughtful and compassionate. But that's a feel-good fantasy of insurance.

If Cambridge and Harvard do a follow up study and find that Whole Foods Natural Organic Market and someone like Dr. Jonathan V. Wright, own billions of dollars worth of fast food stocks, THEN I'll be aghast.
