Hello everyone,
I've been looking over the forum for a while and learned some valuable things. I've noticed that when I try to incorporate K2-MK7 into my regimen cuts/scrapes take longer to clot. My gums usually don't bleed much at all during flossing but when I use K2 there seems to be an excessive amount of bleeding.
This is the exact opposite of the purpose of vitamin k2. I was wondering if I had an allergic reaction, taking too much, or there was reaction with another supplement I'm taking.
Here's the current regimen:
Morning:
Now Foods Men's Multivitamin
Schiff Vitamin D3 5000 UI (Vitamin D 25-OH level at 49)
Nutrex Astaxanthin 4mg
Source Naturals Krill Oil 1mg
Now Patethine 600mg (started taking within the past month b/c of recent test results: Cholesterol 180, Tryglycerides 46, HDL=41, and LDL 30)
Jarrow Formulas EPS Probiotics
Jarrow K2-MK7 90mcg
Jarrow ALCAR 500mg
Doctor's Best Na-R-ALA 100mg (taken for overall benefit not necessarily b/c of ALCAR)
Evening:
Men's Multivitamin
Probiotics
Astaxanthin 4mg
ALCAR 500mg
Na-R-ALA 100mg
Pantethine 600mg
Can I get the advertised benefits of Vitamin K2 by using the MK-4 version? It seems like my regimen thins my blood out and I was hoping to restore and/or enhance my clotting ability (just in case I get into a car accident or something :-) ).
