title I've heard supplementing with d3 can cause this as well as calcium supplements

k2

planning to take 200-250mcg of k2 along with 7000ui of d3
can I take calcium along with that?

 

[BrahminBoss]

Bring down d3 to 4000 and you can take calcium

Bring down d3 to 4000 and you can take calcium

will it be more optimal to not take calcium and keep d3 at 7000

the calcium will be coming from milk

k2

k1 actually, I explained it here

Fucking retards, which part of too much vit k2 is not good didn't you understand
For example, a dose of 360 µg/day MK-7 seems to be too much, it increases vascular calcification

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6766434/

And 50k per day vitamin D is a fucking lot, high doses are like 50-100k ui per week
If you don't consume enough calcium and take too much vitamin d it will take calcium from you bones to your blood jfl so yeah

High doses appear to be safe at least short term, but if your serum 25OHD3 or 1,25OH2D3 is already too high vascular calcification can be a problem which too much vit k2 potentially makes worse.

That said here are the doses I would take, note that this is my opinion as of now

• 500 mcg/day (long term) - 10mg/day (short term) of vitamin K1
• Up to 200 mcg/day vitamin k2 mk7
• Up to 10k ui d3/day, checking your blood would be ideal

Eating dark leafy greens, more vegetables and fruits will give you a nice baseline of vit k, calcium and many other nutrients
Pills are supplements and you should know what you are doing if you take high doses of something

what about k2 mk4? does it make the calcification any worse
