12 Feb 2020 --- K2VITAL vitamin K2 MK-7 by Kappa Bioscience has received approval for use in children’s health and maternal milk powders in China, as well as being deemed safe for use in Mexico. Although K2 is an essential vitamin for the body, the commercial market for it is barely a decade old and is doubling each year, according to Kappa. These approvals indicate that K2 is becoming accepted as a mass-market ingredient that is set to expand its global footprint, notably in the early-life category. Now, questions are prompted over whether the new regulatory approval could lead to a strong trend toward K2 fortification.
