K2 supplements mk4 or mk7 or combination?

I am feeling the same way. I take both MK-7 and MK-4 and want to know if I should continue to do so or just do MK-4. I read that the MK-7 converts to MK-4 but then I heard that MK-7 has not shown to make any difference on bone health while MK-4 at 45mg is the only one that has been shown to make a difference. Let me know if you what you decided. I would love to chat more about supplementation. I see not too many folks have commented. Please feel free to private message me if you would like. Thanks.

I'd also like to hear discussion on mk4/mk7. Let's keep it going in the shared thread! 🙂
I'd love to hear a recommendation for an mk4 supplement at 15 mg per dose, taken 3 times a day. I found one, but it's not a brand I've ever heard of.

That is the dosage Dr. Kim Millman for MK4 recommends. I have seen that dosage in the literature also.

Thanks for confirming that dosage. I'm just not sure about a quality brand of mk4 in that dosage. I've been taking Relentless Improvement, but hard to know if it's legit.

There is a book called K2 and the calcium paradox. Good
Also I recently got K2: The missing nutrient for heart and bone health by Dennis Goodman, MD. Thin book , easy to read and simple directives.
K2 as MK7 was preferred due to it being longer half life.

Thanks I will read that!
MK4 seems to require a much higher dose to be effective, which seems cost prohibitive and not practical.
Plus can you imagine having to eat 10 grams of fat with each dose of MK4? Lol!

I ordered brand nutricost mk4 100 mcg from target but when I found research on dosage it seemed like a huge number of capsules !
I like the brand I use it for MK7

This article cites studies but I’m still confused!

If you are a member or want to subscribe - Consumer Lab has unbiased reports on K2 MK7 and MK4. The site will tell you if the supplement is worth it or not. I've been using it for years. One of their top recommendations for MK4 is Thorne liquid drops, but it also has Vit D in it. I'd rather get my D separately. I can't take MK7, makes my heart race. I remember reading that book, Vitamin K Paradox. Made some sense. My Internist said it was all marketing, don't fall for it. Hmm, ok. But those of us who are fighting Osteoporosis, it might help. I've just amped up my calcium intake. And boy, is that hard. So taking the K2MK4 is something I'd like to try. But I have to confident it's a quality product first.

Thanks for your reply and suggestion! I think the recommendation is 45 mg. Micrograms, mcg, get divided by 1000 to find the mg amount, so, yes, you'd need many capsules to get to that dosage. It's super confusing - I wish they could be consistent.
