Hi HPG girl,
I iniatally took 15 milligrams of Carlsons a day. One dose of 3 5mg capsules. But I quickly changed to one Carlsons 5 mg capsule once a night with my D3 2000Iu's. Now I take one mg of Ulta K2 mk4 three times a day with my coconut oil too.
Here is the previous post I posted on brands.
@Gwynn,
I have used Carlson’s brand k2 which has 5 milligrams per capsule and comes with 60 capsules per bottle. You can break the capsule open and divide the powder into 4 parts and that would give you a little more than one milligram per part. Again please take the teaspoon of coconut oil or olive oil for added absorption.
The thorns brand is a liquid and each drop provides 1 milligram per drop. It is over 60 dollars per bottle and is said to be a lot like the very expensive butter oil from Green Pastures Brand stuff.
Personally on testimonies I have read about Thorn’s and Green Pastures butter oil, I believe the Carlson’s brand is just as good.
As is Ulta K2 Brand which comes in a smaller bottle with 90 much smaller capsules. (less filler). It has 15 mg’s per capsule. But the fifty dollar bottles are a little less than 35 dollars if you get 6 bottles of it which is the way I go now. 15 parts of this capsule means 15 (one Milligrams of K2 from one capsule) You can see the savings...
Carlsons K2 is at Amazon.
A poster hebsie posted this regarding Thorn’s K2 mk4. I have read several other posters on other blogs, who really like it. It would actually be easier to fool with than Carlson’s powder as each drop is one MILLIgram. ...Thornes also has a straight K2 product -- Thorne Research, Vitamin K2, 1 fl oz (30 ml)
Granted there's a typo in the Suppplement facts (in the link I provided), but it's 1mg per drop, with approx 1200 drops per bottle.
So it works out almost identically to four of the Carlson (5mg x 60 cap) product -- Carlson's is around $15 bottle, and Thorne's is $60 -- basically the same thing.
P.S. My wife likes the Carlson's 5 milligrams so much that I still buy them for her, still. She takes half a capsule in the morning and the other half at night for a total of 5 mg's daily.
Be well,
t2t

SMART CHOICES FOR BABY WATER??????

Nursery® Water - Purified Water, Fluoride in Baby Water, Drinking Distilled Water
Is Fluoride in Water Safe for My Child?
The American Dental Association (ADA) supports the level for optimally fluoridated water at 0.7 parts per million (ppm) as determined by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). 1,2
Nursery® Water has a fluoride level of 0.7 ppm or less.
In addition to water, other sources that may include fluoride, according to the ADA, are fluoride toothpaste, fluoride mouth rinse, doctor prescribed fluoride supplements or naturally occurring fluoride in drinking water. 3

Everything you wanted to know, but was afraid to ask is right here:
Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
Enjoy,
Grizz
* Iodine and Breast Cancer Prevention
* Iodine and Fibrocystic Breast Prevention
* Iodine Prevents Needless Mastectomies
Doctors offer women needless mastectomies for painful Fibrocystic Breasts (FBD) when the proven cure is simple iodine supplements.
My first evidence is a woman and her friends in my own neighborhood who were told to "Learn to live with their breast pain or cut them off." I could not believe that doctors could be so CRUEL & INDIFFERENT to exploit frightened women for maximum profit. One Double Mastectomy = a new car and a prescription for iodine = SQUAT.
Then additional evidence began coming into this thread with heart warming testimonials from women who testified that their doctors had recommended barbaric mastectomies to end their breast pain & suffering. See complete details in Iodine References, chapter Testimonials - - Fibrocystic Breasts: http://tinyurl.com/iodine-references
I always make it a point to ask women what their doctors have told them.
And now we have Dr. Beaulieu testifying to the same facts:

"Metastatic Calcification: ... When the supply of Vitamin K2(menaquinone-7 is lacking in the body calcium deposits in arteries, aorta, muscle tissue, breast tissue and tendon sheaths causing bone spurs instead of in the bones where it belongs. This process of deposition of calcium in abnormal sites is known as metastatic calcification. Sites where these deposits may occur include muscles, breasts, kidneys and heel tendons. Provision of ample supplies of Vitamin K2 from one capsule of Synergy K should reverse this process by removing the deposits of abnormal calcium from soft tissues and placing them in bone where they belong...

My reading of this would make me more likely to supplement vitamin K2 mk4 and mk7, rather than mega doses of iodine, if I was a woman and worried. Or am I missing something ??
