topicVitamin K2 Bone Density Randomized Trial
claimMicronutrient deficiencies are a major public health concern in low- and middle-income countries, where conventional supplementation and fortification programs are often limited by low bioavailability, fragile supply chains, cultural resistance, and poor long-term adherence.

topicVitamin K2 Bone Density Randomized Trial
claimThis research note proposes a food-based alternative model that leverages selected traditional Korean foods (K-foods)- gim (dried seaweed), kimchi (fermented vegetables), and cheonggukjang (fermented soybean paste)-as culturally adaptable and nutritionally dense components of official development assistance nutrition strategies.
