Vitamin K status in spaceflight and ground-based models of spaceflight [PDF]
Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2010 Abstract Bone loss is a well-documented change during and after long-duration spaceflight. Many types of countermeasures to bone loss have been proposed, including vitamin K supplementation. The objective of this series of studies was to measure change in vitamin K status in response to microgravity under a variety of spaceflight and ...
