Sammanfattning
In this paper we discuss the evidence of vitamin K2 deficiency which is a factor in several chronic diseases like
diabetes, osteoporosis, cancer, inflammatory and cardiovascular diseases. This deficiency is very common in the
mentioned diseases although it is rarely treated by clinicians. Randomized clinical trials have shown that patients with
osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases and cancer can benefit from vitamin K2 supplement. Further studies are needed to
ascertain the effect of vitamin K2 supplement in patients with diabetes and inflammatory bowel diseases.
