Delphine Saulnier (Novozymes, OneHealth) will present the poster:
"Critical assessment of emerging health benefits of vitamin K, and determination of potential healthcare cost savings for Europe. A new activity from the International Life Science Institute (ILSI) Europe."
Abstract:
In 2013, ILSI Europe reviewed the health benefits of vitamin K2 (Beulens et al, 2013, British Journal of Nutrition). Since that time, lots of new science has emerged: New health benefits studied extend beyond bone health to cardiovascular, immune, or nerve health, to name a few.
This new activity will be conducted by an ILSI Europe expert group comprising at least 50% scientists from academia and the public sector, and up to 50% industry scientists. Scientists will critically review the substantiation of the different health benefits of vitamin K, taking into account both vitamin K1 and K2 (MK-4, MK-7). They will also discuss the optimal markers to be used to monitor vitamin K status. Finally, they will perform a nutrition economic study. The expert group will participate in meetings in Brussels, monthly conference calls, and write a scientific paper, to be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
This activity should result in 1/ an updated critical review paper of the health benefits associated with vitamin K, 2/ a consensus on the vitamin K status markers to be used, 3/a determination of healthcare cost savings in Europe due to vitamin K supplementation. The expected outcome of this activity is an updated assessment of the health benefits of different forms of vitamin K to the scientific and industrial community, and public at large. The estimation of healthcare cost savings with adequate intake of the different forms of vitamin K will be helpful to guide clinicians and public health organizations.
