RE: Calcium ()

[Guest guest]

Thanks . I've been searching for the Vitamin K2-MK-7 and can't find any

that are BBD-conformable. What ones do you take?

I agree, you dont need alot of calcium in your diet. All you need

is proper vitamin d levels, that is what tells your body to absorb

calcium or not. So it is not how much calcium you take, it is how

much is absorbed.

One secret is there is a special form of vitamin k called K2-MK-7

that controls a protein called gla that tells calcium to deposit into

your bones and not your soft tissue. I take about 90 mcg. a day

and that is plenty.

Speaking of magnesium, have you tried magnesium oil ?

I take Jarrow. What conflicts are you finding in regards to bbd with mk-7 ?

Maybe I didnt look at the label close enough.

Jarrow MK7 has natto (legume - soy) and carob (legume).

I know some companies use natto and say their products are soy-free but I am a

die-hard BBDieter and won't have anything that once had

soy/gluten/lactose/legumes (/ for me - corn/sunflower).

Bluebonnet do vitamin K that seems OK but it is only K not K-7. Looks like it

is worth getting anyway as it is supposed to help circulation too.

Are you die hard just to be die hard ? or is there actually justification

for it. Meaning

do you have a reaction ? I dont make hard and fast rules as it leaves logic

out of

the equation. For me, I know what I react to and what I dont. I have to be

strict

with gluten as I react. For tiny amount of legumes or soy I dont react.

If you look at the pills and you see how small they are

and the amount of if any of the soy it is so small that I am willing to try

it and

see what happens as you can only get mk-7 from soy and mk-7 is so much

better than any other vitamin k that you cant even compare. Do your research

on it, see how it is so much better it is than regular vitamin k.

I prefer to keep an eye on the goal and not get lost in hard and fast rules.

If I am old and calcified and have heart disease and osteoporosis because

I made a decision not to even consider soy, then I would consider my logic

and approach to be a failure.

The issue with beans/peas/legumes, including soy, is molecular mimicry. It's

not just a matter of having a reaction. That's why Ashton Embry added it to the

BBD beyond eliminating gluten and dairy. Those plants contain proteins which

are very similar to the protein in myelin.

Vitamin K, a fat-soluble vitamin along with A,D, and E, is an important

component in blood clotting. That's why newborn babies are usually given

(unless an informed mother doesn't give consent) vitamin K shots at birth.

There's a huge fear that somehow these new babies will spontaneously bleed to

death without it. Anyways, I'm not sure that it's a supplement I would choose

to take in light of circulation issues via CCSVI. I'm kind of happy that the

fish oil and vitamin E I take keep my blood " thinner " , if you know what I mean.

But, in a trauma situation, I would certainly want those caring for me to know

that I take those supplements and have coagulation issues because of it. Then I

would be happy to let them give me a vitamin K boost.
