Looking a bit harder at the K2 in sauerkraut.

Enjoyed a fresh tasting mild kraut from WHole Foods, but on a return trip to the area, could not fit in our second stop ( WF) and keep to schedule. Hoping to go tomorrow, will see. So for now, dug thru cupboards and found 3 cans. But left me concerned that K2 may be destroyed in the pasturization process. Took a bit of searching to find a reasonably good answer.

While there’s no smoking gun of which I’m aware, it appears as if vitamin K2 is retained during pasteurization. See Chris Masterjohn’s definitive article on vitamin K2 (or “Activator X,” as Weston Price knew it) where he notes that everything he’s seen suggests that it is heat-stable. Price himself found that “Activator X” survived pasteurization. And according to Real Milk (a pro-raw, anti-pasteurization dairy site), this article sees “no evidence” that pasteurization affects “Activator X” status.
