Vit K2 deficiency link to COVID-19 mortality explained: New paper

摘要

A NEWLY PUBLISHED PAPER in Biocataiysis and Agricultural Biotechnology from New Zealand researchers elucidates the association between K2 and recovery rates in individuals with COVID-19. According to the authors, a "profound increase" in inactive matrix Gla protein (MCP) levels were observed in COVID-19 patients, indicating a poor K2 status and associated increased risk of mortality from comorbidities (e.g., obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases).
