Conversion of Vitamin K2 to Vitamin K1[edit]

The article discusses conversion of Vitamin K1 to Vitamin K2 but does not address conversion of Vitamin K2 to Vitamin K1. Supplements of Vitamin K2 are considered desirable, but it is important to know whether these supplements satisfy the need for Vitamin K1. ---76.130.134.87 (talk) 14:57, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Conversion to MK4[edit]

There is a new study with some more details. I don't have the time to screen it and will just leave it here. CarlFromVienna (talk) 08:42, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Animal work ("mice") not considered WP:MEDRS, so probably no place in article for it. David notMD (talk) 16:32, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I know but the article does talk about a vitamin and not a medical condition. As such the article currently states "Animals may also convert it to vitamin K2, variant MK-4." this passage could be improved using the source above. CarlFromVienna (talk) 05:43, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Combination of vitamin D and K[edit]

I'd heard the combination has health benefits, especially at high dosages of vitamin D. I found some resources to verify this and hope someone more informed on the subject can add this to the page. National Library of Medicine PubMed NicoLaan (talk) 13:14, 22 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
