K2 capsules

[Tinasleepyhead]

The additional medication I take -Magnesium

Vit D

Calceos

K2

I have been taking daily 50ug of K2, purchased from Holland and Barrett at £13.99 for 30 capsules, this has been reasonable when it is on offer, of buy one get one for one penny. It hasn’t been on offer for sometime, wondering if anyone can suggest an alternative supplier at a reasonable cost please,

One of the reasons I don't take K2 supplements is the price here!! It does seem a pricey one. I assume I'm getting K2 as all the meat and dairy I eat is grass fed!

Sorry, I'm a bit late to the party, but Natures Best (online order) are good and efficient. Vitamin K2 - 120 capsules £16.

[Marijo1951 in reply to bussell]

I take their combined Vitamins D3 and K2, £12.40 for 60 capsules or £20.80 for two pots.

Thank you everyone for such helpful information I knew I’d get the help from the forum 👍🏻

[piglette]

Are you taking Calceos and vitamin D separately? If so aren’t you doubling up on the vitamin D?

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to piglette]

The amount in Calceos etc is minimal!!!!

[piglette in reply to PMRpro]

I suppose it depends how much you take!!

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to piglette]

You shouldn't be taking more than 2 tablets of Calceos or AdCal - ifyou need more vit D it must be separate from the calcium or you would overdose on calcium. 2 tablets is the magnificent total of 800 IU vit D - which is the bare minimum vit D supplementation and not enough for daily requirements if you are not gaining it from sun - which most of us don't and probably can't. There is next to none in diet.

I buy Cytoplan Bone support. Includes K2, calcium, magnesium and Boron. £16.90 for 60 vegan tablets. Any good for you?

[Tinasleepyhead]

Thank you everyone for all the helpful information, I really appreciate each response, will take all information ‘on board’ during my journey. Wishing everyone a good week 😀

I get my K2 from goat's kefir (as well as other foods) and it's also a great probiotic. It's also very good for calming gastritis IMHO.

[Suffererc]

I buy when a penny sake too but I buy in larger quantities so I can cover for when they are on offer again. Also to get the free postage. H&B are expensive and I always wonder why.

[Rugger]

I buy Holland and Barrett's all in one Calcium with vitamins D and K. The tablets are 3p each, but even cheaper when their offers are on. I supplement with additional vitamin D and magnesium.

[Koalajane]

I buy in-line from Health4all

[Boss302Fan]

Speak with your doctor regarding K2. One paper I read indicated it took 180 ug/d and 5 months before observing significant improvement. My doctor restricted me to 100 ug/d. It’s one of those vitamins that’s difficult to get through meals. I seem to remember it’s mainly present in certain fermented foods, in one particular available from Japan. For more detailed info search on that on internet.

And grass-fed meat and dairy ... Plus

100 mcg capsules of K2 MK-7 from Troo Healthcare cost £9.97 for 120 capsules. They come in flat bottles which are letter-box friendly. I have been using them for 3 years, with magnesium citrate and (aged 75) still have T-scores above osteopenia .

[bluebeam in reply to bromley621]

I take this brand of K2 too. I’m 75 and so far so good with ny T scores.

I take a combined gelcap of D3K2 available OTC at pharmacies in Canada.
