Something to consider. Perhaps co-factors along with the MK-7 in the cheese make it more effective than MK-7 from Natto. Vitamin MK-4 is present in cheese, but not in Natto. Also other vitamins like A, D, etc. Would be interesting to see cardio results of MK-7 from Natto, not from cheese. To say the people that ate the most cheese in Rotterdam had the least cardiovascular disease. And therefore it must be vitamin K-7 ---> that is a big leap.

The Japs are long livers but they don't have a monopoly on longevity, yet they are practically the only large consumers of natto. I think the importance of MK7 may be exaggerated. For that reason, I take LEF Super K, which includes K1, MK4, and MK7.
