Bergstrom Nutrition has released OptiMSM K-Blend, a combination of two forms of vitamin K—vitamin K1 and vitamin K2 (MK-7)—and OptiMSM. This patent-pending formula is designed to target joint, bone and heart health. OptiMSM K-Blend creates a distinct bone and joint formula that helps maintain healthy joints and reduce discomfort associated with decreased function. MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) decreases inflammatory markers that damage cartilage and helps protect the integrity of cartilage tissue. Vitamin K plays an important role in decreasing and preventing bone loss and is essential for maintaining bone health. This new blend strengthens bones by ensuring calcium is reabsorbed into bone tissue, thereby increasing bone mineral density. MSM also supports healthy homocysteine metabolism, while vitamin K research has shown significant indicators of positive health effects for the heart.
