Summary of Kate Rheaume-Bleue's Vitamin K2 and the Calcium Paradox

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The latest calcium and heart health study concluded that women who supplement with calcium to prevent osteoporosis are at a higher risk of atherosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke than those who don't. #2 The real question to ask is, How can the body safely guide calcium into the bones where it helps us, and keep it away from soft tissues like arteries where it harms us.
The answer is a long misunderstood fat-soluble vitamin called K2. #3 The Calcium Paradox is the relationship between calcium deficiency in the bones and calcium excess in the arteries, which leads to two major health concerns: osteoporosis and heart disease. Vitamin K2 is the key to putting calcium back in its place. #4 Osteoporosis is a disease that causes bones to become more porous and prone to fracture.
It is the most common bone disease, and half of women over the age of 50 will experience a fracture due to diminished bone density.
