Stressing again:

Potassium is a mineral marked K

There is a a group of vitamins marked K, among them K1 and K2 (with various forms such as MK4 and MK7).

There is NO relation between those too, except the coincidence in using the same letter. What you want w.r.t to bone health is specifically Vitamin K2, not K1, and not the mineral K (a.k.a Potassium).

(This is similar to vitamin C having no particular relation to element C, a.k.a Carbon).
