Vitamin K1 is synthesized by plants and is the main form consumed in the diet, while vitamin K2 can be synthesized by human intestinal microflora and is also found in fermented foods and animal products.<\/p>\n<p>For optimum heart health however, vitamin K alone is not enough. Instead, even in situations where multiple risk factors are present, a specific combination of supplementary micronutrients including vitamin C, lysine, proline, and others is necessary as it has been scientifically proven to simultaneously affect several biological mechanisms associated with heart problems.<\/p>\n<p>In Dr. Rath\u2019s lifesaving book, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.why-animals-dont-get-heart-attacks.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Why Animals Don\u2019t Get Heart Attacks\u2026But People Do!<\/a>, you can learn more about this approach and discover for yourself how heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, and many other cardiovascular conditions can all be prevented and controlled naturally, without drugs.<\/p>\n<a class=\"button  button_size_2 button_js\" href=\"https:\/\/medicalxpress.com\/news\/2017-10-scientists-children-green-leafy-vegetables.html\" target=\"_blank\"    ><span class=\"button_label\">Read article at medicalxpress.com<\/span><\/a>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEWS A study of 766 otherwise healthy adolescents showed that those who consumed the least vitamin K1- found in spinach, cabbage, iceberg lettuce and olive oil<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5566,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[120],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
