Vitamin K is in your leafy greens, your broccoli, your spinach, and Japanese scientists just turned it into something that may one day reverse Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease!

Vitamin K is in your leafy greens, your broccoli, your spinach, and Japanese scientists just turned it into something that may one day reverse Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease!

Researchers at the Shibaura Institute of Technology in Japan engineered 12 new hybrid versions of vitamin K by combining it with components of vitamin A, creating compounds that were approximately three times more powerful than natural vitamin K at triggering neural stem cells to develop into fully functioning neurons. In Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, neurons die progressively and the brain simply cannot replace them fast enough, which causes the irreversible decline in memory and cognition.
