Description of UNIQUE Vitamin K2™ Supplement
Vitamin K has long been recognized as an important fat soluble vitamin essential for blood coagulation and normal bone mineralization. While most of the benefits of vitamin K were previously attributed to vitamin K1, recent research has identified important benefits for vitamin K2.
UNIQUE Vitamin K2™ is an important step in vitamin K usage. Vitamin K has long been recognized as an important fat soluble vitamin essential for blood coagulation and normal bone mineralization. Several different forms of vitamin K exist, with the primary dietary form being vitamin K1, or phylloquinone, found primarily in green vegetables. Another form of vitamin K known as vitamin K2, or menaquinone, is found in animal products such as meat or eggs, as well as in foods such as cheese and natto, a fermented soy product. While most of the benefits of vitamin K were previously attributed to vitamin K1, recent research has identified important benefits for vitamin K2.

FAQs
The shelf life of nutritional supplements is indicated near the UPC code on the label. There is normally a date stamp that shows the month and year of “recommended” expiry. We use a 2 or 3-year time stamp by regulation. However, UNIQUE E® Mixed Tocopherols are pure, have no fillers, diluents, vegetable oil, or other additives that may turn the product rancid. What turns vitamin E rancid (causing it to oxidize and potentially expire) is the additional oils contained along with the vitamin E. As mentioned before, we do not have any extra oils – it is pure vitamin E oil that does not turn rancid. One of the best ways to check your softgels is to bite into one – it should have a mild bland taste.
Although our product is derived from soybeans, it does not contain any soy DNA protein because they are destroyed during distillation. Our product is certified to be PCR-negative which is the industry recognized classification for products that have been produced and distilled to remove any and all contaminates that could affect purity. Scientists state that there is no difference between a GMO and non-GMO product that is PCR-negative.
Our capsules are a beef gelatin. Certified to be free of any concern about “mad cow” issues. As listed on out label, the softgels themselves are made of beef gelatin, glycerin, and water
This question should be discussed with your primary health care professional. If you do not have a doctor or nutritionist to discuss this with, we may be able to direct you to one of our trusted partners that understand how vitamin E interacts with various medications and existing health conditions.
The products are themselves not Kosher certified, but all of the ingredients AND production facilities are. That is why we refer to them as “Kosher friendly.”
Our bovine gelatin is a protein found in the hooves, bones, and connective tissues of cows. A. C. Grace Company has always used bovine (beef) gelatin to be able to provide our products to customers who have dietary restrictions in regards to pork products. Pork gelatin is more readily available, and less costly for companies to use in production. Just as we go the extra mile in our distillation process to provide ONLY PURE VITAMIN E OIL, we also choose to avoid the ‘cheap’ gelatin for our softgels.
Though the softgels themselves are not Kosher, the gelatin used in them is Kosher. Furthermore, we continue to work with our suppliers to find a vegetarian softgel solution. The problem (good problem) is that because our Vitamin E oil is so viscous (thick) due to its purity, we have not been able to find a vegetarian softgel material that will contain the oil without cracking the softgel and ultimately leaking. Keep in mind, we also offer our Mixed Tocopherols OIL product, which is certified Kosher and Vegan.
To answer your question – YES, the oil inside the capsules is Certified Vegetarian. The capsule itself is beef gelatin. Our Mixed Tocopherols OIL product is Certified Vegan. You can also cut open the softgels if you’d like. We also have the same E in a 1-oz pump bottle made specifically for people who wish to have a vegetarian form and for those that do not wish to swallow a softgel.
