During the Complementary Medicines Australia (CMA) Innovation Day on May 7th, we were delighted to witness our key ingredients, Vitamin K2 (MenaQ7®) and Active Folate (Quatrefolic®), showcased prominently.
The event provided a valuable forum for industry professionals to share insights on manufacturing, formulation, ingredients, packaging, and innovation. Dr. Brad from CMG delivered an enlightening session titled “Scientific and Evidence-Based Advancements in Enhancing Self-Care through Complementary Medicine,” highlighting the advantages of these vital nutrients.
The Multifaceted Role of Vitamin K2 (MenaQ7®) in Cardiovascular, Bone Health, and Beyond
MenaQ7® is crucial for cardiovascular and bone health. It plays a pivotal role in blood coagulation by facilitating the production of prothrombin and other coagulation factors. Additionally, Vitamin K2 helps prevent the accumulation of calcium in blood vessel walls, thereby reducing arterial stiffness. In terms of bone health, it is involved in the production, activation, and carboxylation of osteocalcin, which is essential for calcium transport, homeostasis, and bone mineralization. Recent research has also highlighted its diverse functions, including energy metabolism, antioxidant properties, anti-inflammatory effects, immunomodulation, and brain signaling. These findings suggest potential benefits for conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, depression in women with PCOS, and Alzheimer’s disease.
Unlocking the Power of Active Folate (Quatrefolic®) for Enhanced Cellular Function and Health
Active Folate (Quatrefolic®) is the biologically active form of folate, crucial for various cellular processes, including one-carbon metabolism, methylation, and DNA repair. Deficiency can lead to anemia, neuropathy, cardiovascular diseases, and cognitive issues. Quatrefolic® is particularly beneficial for those with an MTHFR polymorphism, as it does not require conversion, ensuring optimal utilization.
The Innovation Day was a great success, offering a platform to highlight the advancements and benefits of our premium ingredients, Vitamin K2 (MenaQ7®) and Active Folate (Quatrefolic®). We take pride in supporting the complementary medicine industry with our scientifically proven products, promoting self-care and wellness.
