Vitamin K: High Doses of MK-4 and MK-7 Show Promising Results

@singingbones I found out through bloodwork that my severe OP results from parathyroid issues. I'm working with an endocrinologist to help take care of that. I also have thyroid issues that started over 35 years ago (before menopause) and was never told that I should start taking calcium supplements at that time.

This may have already been pointed out, but all that additional Calcium needs Vitamin K to get to your bones, instead of just remaining in your bloodstream. I'm sorry you were not informed of your thyroid issues. Neither was I, and it indicates poor follow up.

@daisy17 - and there are so many factors involved (as you've just illustrated). None of this has a cookie-cutter response. And then when we attempt to research the HRT piece that we were talked out of, it's even messier--UGH!
