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

@daisy17 What is interesting to me is that bisphosphonates are found to increase BMD but studies shows they offer minimal fracture prevention benefits.
On the other hand, this study says that Vit K may not increase BMD but offers benefits in preventing fractures.
BMD is important, but more important is fracture prevention.

@daisy17 BMD is important; it is what we measure and medicate according to results but the only reason (I think?) we treat osteoporosis is to prevent fractures...or am I missing something?!? I believe the goal first and foremost is to prevent fractures (why else would we medicate) and the resulting disability that can come with them.
