I think it should be clarified that it's Vitamin K2 which helps with the bones, and there isn't much in our modern western diet. We are not very efficient at converting K1 from our leafy greens into K2 and have relied on our animals to do that for us. Grain fed animals do not supply us with K2, so in the absence of grassfed animals and dairy next best, convenient, option is supplements, usually sourced from natto (fermented soy), and other fermented foods may also contain K2.
