STATINS

Hi Can I please ask, if anybody takes a K2 vitamin and statins? I ask as i've been led to believe that K2 vitamin directly moves the calcium directly into the bones and not straight into the arteries. I've also read that if you take statins with this vitamin it stops it from doing this task??

The information about K2 (Mk7) has been around for a while... I read up about it on the Internet. Also from this site. But was curious 🤔 about it working when somebody takes it with statins?? I searched on Google and got two different answers, this is why I was asking.
