Benefits of MyoMax

  • mitochondria’s ATP production can increase by 40 – 50%
  • helps improve aerobic capacity from cellular level
With age athletic performance declines because the body becomes less effective at utilizing oxygen.  The measurement of VO2max is the assessment of how much oxygen the body can use per kilogram of body weight. A high VO2max indicates that a person can effectively utilize oxygen.
After the age of 30, VO2max will unfortunately decline. For people who are not athletes, VO 2 max usually declines by 10% every decade and in athletes the decline is only 5% every decade.  VO2 max declines over time because the maximal heart rate decreases.
Oxygen delivery to the muscles depends on maximal heart rate and stroke volume of the heart. If both declene so does the oxygen delivery.

The good news is that it appears that Vitamin K2 increases cardiac output by improving mitochondrial function.  A study conducted at the University of North Texas found that only 8 weeks of high dose supplementation with vitamin K2 (MK-7) was associated with a 12% increase in maximal cardiac output in athletes who utilize aerobic training.

Cardiovascular Health

Vitamin K2-7 has shown to lower the risk of vascular damage. Vitamin K2-7 activates the so called matrix GLA protein (MGP). MGP prevents calcium from depositing in vessel walls and joint spaces.

The body needs vitamin K2-7 to take free calcium from the blood, the deposits from the arteries and joint spaces and sends it to the bones. Therefore it improves cardiovascular health and bone health.
