osteoporosis, calcium supplements and calcium paradox

In Japan, vitamin K is prescribed at 45 mg a day. There is a calcium product, Osteo K that has that amount in it. My functional medicine doctor wants me on 22-45 mg a day. My rheumatologist said 45 mg a day was fine. So, even though that dosage is HUGE, that’s what I’m taking. I also take calcium citrate, 1000 mg, magnesium 500 mg and Vit D, 10,000 IU(my levels were extremely low).

I just came across your post and looked a bit into Osteo K. It sounds as if it's a large capsule. Because I have problems swallowing, wonder if you think the capsule could be opened and I could add the contents to yogurt or something similar? Know it's just an opinion. I think it should be okay unless the capsule is time-released, and it doesn't seem to be. Thanks in advance if you can respond, and if not, no worries. Glad you introduced us to this product.

Hi, have you had dexa scan to see if these are working?
