Probably synthetic. I contacted the company re another product & here's their comprehensive reply. Also, please check the link at the bottom as it has more good info;) Thank you for your recent correspondence. Due to customer feedback and response, Life Extension is in the process of transitioning our product line to include ingredients derived only from non-GMO sources.

I just spoke with Tom at Life Extension. He didn't say corn derived. He said it was synthetically derived. I tried a "natto" derived supplement and experienced terrible stomach upset. Even though it's synthetically derived, I consider it the lesser of two evils.

I called LE & spoke with a nutritional consultant named Adam. He said that the origin of the MK7 is Non-Gmo corn.

No, it has the vit K2 and the following ingredients: cellulose, magnesium stearate, silica, vegetable stearin and a gelatin capsule. It also states that it is preservative free, wheat-free, gluten-free, salt-free, sugar-free, starch-free, milk-free and corn-free.

It states it is MK-4. In supplement form virtually all K2, MK-4 is synthetic. Synthetic K2, MK-4 has a VERY short Half Life of only 8 hours, where as K2, MK-7 is derived from Soy Natto, a natural product and K2, MK-7 also has a Half Life of about 72 hours, so it has a much better length of time to work in your body! Here is a good article: http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2013/10/19/vitamin-d-vitamin-k2.aspx

Yes it is. All vitamin K is removed. I researched this before I purchased it.

I do believe that is what it is. I have been taking garden of life vitamins for over a year now and they seem to be the best (For myself anyway). Here is what gardenoflife.com said. It provides 150% of vitamin K, including raw MK-7 (vitamin K2) which is gently extracted at low temperatures from fermented Bacillus subtitles Natto. I hope this helps!

I cannot see any information mentioning Vitamin K, but that would be in eggs if I remember correctly and there are eggs in this. I have uploaded an image of the label an you can call them (Unilever) @ 1-800-416-3275. Sorry I can't be more helpful, but I hope you can get the information you need when you call them. Have a great week!

I just want to agree with AB; the amount of vitamin K needs to remain constant. It can be high medium or low but for your Coumadin to work properly it must remain constant.

I recall reading in Kate Rheaume-Bleue's book on vitamin K2, that vitamin K2-4 is made from tobacco.

It does a number of things but one of the most important is that K2 activates osteocalcin in the blood which enables calcium to go to the bones and teeth instead of places where it shouldn't such as vessels where it causes the plaque that kills. Due to agribusiness practices, it is nearly impossible to get K2 in our food anymore - this is the possibly the main cause of heart disease. Beef and dairy cattle need grass to produce K2. We can get K1 from greens but we don't seem to convert it readily into K2. K1 is a component of the blood clotting cascade.

I do not see vitamin k in the list. It contains vitamin A, and C, iron, magnesium, calcium. Not sure about the scoops part. I don't do a scoop a day every day, but my last order lasted me 4 months.
