K2's function is to activate and enhance GLA proteins, including osteocalcin, which affects bone growth and remodeling and proper mineralization. Osteocalcin binds calcium in bones, and low amounts increase brittleness. Clinical studies have shown that vitamin K2 use is associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer, by as much as 63%.
