Vitamin K is essential for many physiological processes, including coagulation, bone metabolism, tissue calcification, and antioxidant activity. vitamers are represented by lipophilic compounds with similar chemical structure (i.e., phylloquinone (vitamin K1) menaquinone K2)). deficiency can affect coagulation vascular increasing the risk of hemorrhages, atherosclerosis, cerebrovascular diseases, neurodegeneration. Recently, several studies have hypothesized a possible dual role vitamin in benefiting both cerebral health, e.g., sphingolipids biosynthesis or ferroptosis inhibition. The aim this narrative review to deepen understanding biological activities its protective/preventive actions neurovascular degenerative conditions, stroke dementia. Given difficulties related hemorrhagic entailed prevention strokes, function antagonists also investigated. Finally, we track development clinical concept future preventive strategy innovative use as supplement counteract pathological focusing particular on
