7 things to know about vitamin MK7
Produced in partnership with GOOD X TRU MK7
Supporting your body when having an active lifestyle is vital. New Zealanders are known to have the “she’ll be alright” attitude and not giving our bodies the care and support, it needs to go through a healthy lifestyle.
TRU MK7 has designed a vitamin to support active lifestyles for every stage of life from elite level athletes to elderly life. This vitamin is made from an original formula using six traceable ingredients from around the world to provide our bodies with the ultimate joint health support.
Supports multiple factors
MK7 not only supports joint health but also supports our joint mobility and cartilage health, maintenance and healthy joint ageing. Developed by leading vitamin MK7 researcher, Dr Aydin Berenjian, the formulation created was an effective health supplement that is powered by science.
“We wanted to re-imagine the supplement and make it useful in giving people a stronger, healthier and more active life. We are so proud of the result. It is everything we believe a functional joint supplement should be,” Berenjian says.
Provide enhanced joint health
When formulated with other nutrients vitamin MK7 will provide enhanced joint health support. TRU MK7’s original formula is designed to maximise the benefits of vitamin MK7, using six ingredients traced from six countries for a truly universal solution on how to support joint health:
- Vitamin MK7 (Norway)
- Green-Lipped Mussel (Christchurch, New Zealand)
- Eggshell Membrane (US)
- Vitamin C (Australia)
- Vitamin D (UK)
- Ginger Root Extract (China)
Essential nutrient for all stages of life
Most of us are not able to get enough vitamin MK7 through our normal diet alone, our body cannot internally produce it. So, whether you are in prime fitness or are experiencing signs of ageing, Vitamin MK7 is an essential nutrient your joints need no matter what stage of life you’re at.
MK7 and joint health
The correlation between vitamin MK7 and joint health was discovered after studies showed Japanese women who ate Natto (fermented soybeans which are loaded with vitamin MK7) experienced less risk of developing osteoporosis compared to women who did not.
Green Lipped Mussels = vitamins
Arthritis is a long-term condition that can have a substantial impact on the quality of your life. It is an umbrella term that describes a range of conditions affecting joints – most commonly osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
New Zealand Green Lipped Mussels provides a rich source of glycosaminoglycans, which is needed to help your joints remain flexible, elastic and tensile. The risk of arthritis occurs when there are not enough glycosaminoglycans in the joints and cartilage.
TRU MK7 sources Green Lipped Mussels from Christchurch as an added ingredient to work alongside vitamin MK7 to support joint health.
Anti-inflammatory benefits
Vitamin MK7 has anti-inflammatory benefits that help reduce the risk of developing joint discomfort or chronic inflammation. The vitamin has been shown to fight inflammation by inhibiting pro-inflammatory markers produced by white blood cells called monocytes. Researchers sound that supplementation with MK7 lowered levels of inflammatory markers and lowered the risk of getting rheumatoid arthritis later in life.
Support as we age
Supplementary vitamin MK7 is needed to ensure our bones continue to get the support it needs to remain healthy as we age. Our body’s digestion and utilization of vitamin MK7 become less efficient as we age, to keep up our joint’s health TRU MK7 will be able to give our joints the benefits and support it needs.
