    GlossaryVitamin K2

    Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, including bone health and cardiovascular health. Its relevance to hair loss lies in its potential role in promoting healthy hair follicles and improving circulation, which may support hair growth. Key distinguishing characteristics of vitamin K2 include its ability to activate proteins that regulate calcium in the body, thereby influencing overall cellular health, including that of hair follicles. While research on its direct impact on hair loss is still emerging, maintaining adequate levels of vitamin K2 may contribute to overall hair health.
