What is the best way to take these capsules — when, and with what? — Vitamin K2 MK-7 100 mcg, 30 Softgels - Swanson

Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning fat needs to be present in the food for it to be absorbed normally. Swanson K2 capsules are recommended to be taken with a meal that contains fat — for example, during a main meal with some oil, nuts, avocado or another source of fat. Taking it on an empty stomach or with completely fat-free food may reduce absorption.

The MK-7 form stays present in the body for a long time, so one capsule a day is enough — there is no need to split the dose. The specific time of day is not critical: morning or evening, go by whatever is convenient for you and when you eat a reasonably fatty meal.

If you are already taking vitamin D3, K2 logically pairs with it within the same meal — both vitamins are fat-soluble and are often seen as complementary elements of the diet. Store the capsules in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources — standard conditions for most fat-soluble supplements.
