In this reader question and answer session, Dr. Kate Rheame-Bleue, author of Vitamin K2 and the Calcium Paradox, joins us today to discuss the benefits of vitamin K2, where to find it and why you need it.
Kate Rheume-Bleue is a licensed primary care naturopathic physician and the author ofVitamin K2 and the Calcium Paradox: How a Little Known Vitamin Could Save Your Life. As an educator, Dr. Kate is a frequent media guest and Canadian expert in natural medicine.
And just a note: I had some measure of difficulty with the sound control on this video (and there’s not much I can do about it). So if you have trouble listening, make sure to download the full transcript.
