As you get in deeper into the science around K2, it's got multiple roles what
the scientists would call "pleiotropic," across multiple different roles which
may seem unrelated. But once you dig into the biological pathways, they are very
much related or they appear to be. So I do take it. Now what? So if I do, what do I
take?
You know these videos on K2 and sometimes I forget the obvious. Somebody,
a patient was asking me yesterday. "Well yeah that's interesting but do you take
it?" And I forgot to say that yes I do. Actually two years ago, I did not take
vitamin k2 and that was based on the randomized clinical trials. The Rotterdam
study was the only one that showed any evidence and I just didn't think it was
that significant. So why am I taking it now? It's not because the randomized
clinical trials have changed or new ones have come out which provide a whole lot
of a solid evidence that it works. So if you want that kind of solid evidence, it
just doesn't exist now. So why am I taking it? It's based on other evidence,
things like a video that we released recently that as you get in deeper into
the science around K2, it's got multiple roles what the the scientists would call
"pleiotropic," across multiple different roles which may seem unrelated. But once
you dig into the biological pathways, they are very much related or they
appear to be. So I do take it now. What so if I do, what do I take? Let me just say
this. I'm not associated, no financial association with either of these groups.
The first one is this K2 plus D3 2-in-1 support made with coconut oil. And so
this other one is natto powder. You may remember I was the medical director for
Toyota in North America for about a decade and there I had the wonderful
opportunity to set up... manage not only docs but in clinics but pharmacies and
set up full preventive services for over a hundred thousand people. I enjoyed and
was intrigued by the Japanese culture. I even developed an ability and taste
for eating. I remember one time in Japan, I actually ate a raw fish eyeball and
loved it. I'd had a little bit of sake prior to that and that certainly helped.
But I could never develop a taste for natto.
Natto's fermented soybeans. It has K2 in it and I actually am using natto now.
It's in this powder that again it's in Japanese and it still tastes bad. So what
do I take? Again K2 D3 2-in-1 support 100 micrograms of K2 as in MK7
menaquinone and 125 micrograms of D3 that's 5,000 IU.
There's plenty of research showing you're not going to get into trouble
even if you're not monitoring your D3 levels with a supplementation of
5,000 IU. Here's another couple of views of the box
menaquinone-7. And again I don't use Sports Research all the time. I use other brands
as well but that's what I'm taking and I'm putting the natto powder in my
morning coffee and I won't say it's terrible but it's still not... I don't look
forward to ingesting that, I'll tell you that. But so why do I do all that? Again
I just told you. We have made it this far, thank you very much for your interest. So
I'm very excited to announce we now have a membership page. Now what is that?
That's the one place where you can go and access all of our digital products.
It starts off with a few free things like a lot of infographics which help
you understand the basics of insulin resistance, cardiovascular inflammation,
and other key concepts on how to prevent heart attack and stroke. The next free
item is the intro and first chapter of the book that we're writing on plaque
and the standards of medicine just aren't doing very well right now in
terms of the number one killer and disabler - plaque. We don't do a good job
of measuring it, we don't do a good job of monitoring it, and there are better
ways. So that's what this book is all about. Again, go in, get a free a look at
the intro and the first chapter. And if you've purchased the cardiovascular
inflammation and IR courses, thank you so much for doing that.
You purchased those at a time before we had them totally cleaned up and we've
cleaned them up now and they're available for you right there on the
membership page. Hit the link below register and go in and take a look. Look
forward to seeing you there. Thank you.
