vitamin k2 is found to be helpful to decrease cardiovascular calcification and also improve the health of bone and cartilage. it is naturally found in bacterial fermented foods like mature cheeses and curd. vitamin k supplements are usually safe and are definitely recommended in normal people. but are generally not recommended in all patients with liver disease. in cases of end stage liver disease (associated with conditions like hepato cellular cancer alcohol liver disease) with deranged liver functions use of vitamin k supplements can be associated with bleeding abnormalities and hence are not recommended. you might consult with your treating doctor and depending on your laboratory parameters he may advice you accordingly. i hope this helps.
