Best Vitamin K2 (MK-7) Supplements 2026: Cost per Effective Dose

By Erin Rose · Updated · Methodology · About Us

Top pick for Vitamin K2 (MK-7): Nutricost Vitamin K2 MK-7 100 mcg — 100mcg per 1 softgel, $0.07/day. Our best-value pick.

All Vitamin K2 (MK-7) Supplements Compared

MK-7 is the form worth paying for, because its half-life is measured in days rather than hours — that is why it works as a once-daily capsule while MK-4 needs repeat dosing to hold levels. Most products in the Verified Supplement Data catalog land at 100 mcg of MK-7, which is the dose used in the bone and arterial research. ⚠ Vitamin K directly opposes warfarin: if you take an anticoagulant, do not start K2 without speaking to whoever manages your dosing.

Dose check · Vitamin K2

2 of these 5 put more than the studied Vitamin K2 dose in one capsule

90–200 mcgthe range the research used, MK-7; MK-4 is a different dosing scale (~250x higher, in mg)

2 products on this page put more than 200 mcg, the top of the studied range, in a single capsule: Life Extension Super K; NOW Foods Vitamin K2 (MK-7) 300 mcg. That is not a reason to avoid them, but one capsule gives more than the trials used, so the lowest price per milligram is not automatically the best buy.

The label trap on Vitamin K2: MK-7 and MK-4 doses are not interchangeable; most everyday supplements use MK-7. Critical: opposes warfarin — do not start/stop/change without a doctor managing it

Method: studied range from our own Vitamin K2 dosage guide (PMID 23525894), checked against the 5 products above that state a dose — capsules in whole servings, powders in fractions. Trial doses, not a prescription.

How these 5 Vitamin K2 (MK-7) products were ranked

Not one of these 5 vitamin K2 products could be confirmed in the NSF, USP or Informed Sport registries, so verification separates none of them and the ranking falls to cost per day at the labelled serving. Commission does not enter it: the rate is the same whichever vitamin K2 you buy. Full methodology.
