Beat Osteoporosis to the Punch with Vitamin K

The United States has one of the higher rates of osteoporosis, about 44 million Americans are threatened by the disease. And one of the easiest ways to nip it in the bud is with your diet. In addition to calcium and Vitamin D, now there's Vitamin K. I had no idea what Vitamin K even did until recently when I learned how it can help to prevent this ever-present disease. Vitamin K helps prevent and treat osteoporosis by boosting bone density.
