UniK2, a natural vitamin K2 MK-7 from Frutarom Health, Switzerland, is now self-affirmed GRAS, based on critical evaluation and acceptance of a qualified, independent scientific panel. It can now be utilized as a food ingredient for dairy products, soy milk, fruit drinks and sports drinks, as well as baked and bar products, such as quick breads, muffins and nutritional bars.  UniK2 comes from natto-derived Bacillus subtilis and is one of the richest natural sources of vitamin K2. UniK2 provides vitamin K2 as menaquinone-7 (MK-7), the most bioavailable and bioactive form of vitamin K. The high bioactivity of MK-7 (“7” describes the chain length) is predominantly due to a significantly longer half-life in the blood, which makes it the most important form of vitamin K with activity outside the liver. – Frutarom, www.frutarom.com
