@daisy17 I also started the Seen chew, above the 500mg calcium I make sure I am getting calcium from my diet. I added more D3 and MK7. Not sure if MK 7 is as good as MK 4??. The chews are great, hoping they will work for my supplement. I like getting food based products. Also do weight training and protein.

@clh222
I have been reading that MK-4 is a metabolite of MK-7, so I am only supplementing MK-7. Also adding aged cheeses like Gouda and Munster to get the K2 from whole foods (watch the sat fat though! More Calcium from foods and the balance from Algae Cal or Garden of life Raw marine based calcium,
Weights, Protein, collagen.

@clh222 You can take MK4 along with MK7, which is what I do. I take 180mcg Menaquinone-7 (MK7) - TrueVantage brand and 45,000 mcg (45 mg) of vitamin K2 (menaquinone-4) - Life Extension K2 High Potency brand.
This is what AI Assist says: “Taking vitamin K2 in both MK-4 and MK-7 forms together can be beneficial, as they have different properties and roles in the body. MK-4 has a shorter half-life and is quickly metabolized, while MK-7 has a longer half-life and remains active for a longer period, supporting continuous bone and cardiovascular health. Combining both forms may provide comprehensive support for bone health and calcium metabolism.”
