About ActivK™

ActivK™ is the brand name of the long-chained menaquinones (Vitamin K2 MK-7-10). It is marketed by Danisco for food applications in two forms – natural and synthetic.

Our naturally-derived product is pure extract similar to natto – traditional Japanese fermented soya beans and the richest known source of K2 MK-7.

We also offer a synthetic form of ActivK™  made with a proprietary synthetic process resulting in a very pure ingredient.

In either form, ActivK™  is one of the most bioavailable and bioactive K vitamins. It is almost completely absorbed by the body, and is proven to reduce vascular calcification risks and aid calcium binding to the bone matrix.

ActivK™ is safe, effective and stable in a wide range of food applications.
