Bone health is more than calcium. Vitamin K2 helps activate osteocalcin so calcium can settle into bone. Natto fermentation yields MK-7, a rare natural source in plant-forward diets.
Why natto and K2
Soy alone is not a K2 standout; fermentation changes the profile. For midlife consumers and vegetarians, natto is a practical table option.
How to eat well
- Small, regular servings beat occasional binges;
- Pair with dairy, leafy greens or other soy for calcium + K2;
- Avoid prolonged high heat;
- Anyone on warfarin should follow medical advice.
