Super K with Advanced K2 Complex - 90 ct

This is a fantastic combination of nutrients for skin, bone growth and arterial health in my opinion. I have osteopenia bordering on osteoporosis, awful skin problems from having to use testosterone, heart disease "kills" in my family on both sides, and biopsied precancerous Barrett's disease. Some fairly serious health issues. I have used every prescription bone density prescription available, including prolia injections and 2 years of daily injected forteo with only 7% increase in bone deposit improvement. My cholesterol if left untreated is in the 300 category. I take a powerful acid producing inhibitor due to arthritis medications causing bleeding ulcers. After doing mega reading and research I came accross the benefits of a combination vitamin K. I trust Life extensions products and liked the process used for manufacturing the final product. Life extentions has all the correct multi vitamin k's we need from correct first sources. It is not the by product of some other fist source nutrient or food. That matters to me. A bit pricy but considering the research done by this company for purity and the science that is needed to produce a superior supplement, I think you get what you pay for. Great product you can trust with proven blood test results, which I have every 3 months. Be aware fermented soy is used in this formula, if you are soy allergic or sensitive such as breast cancer talk to your Dr. This supplement has loads of vitamin k activity and you take one easy to swallow soft gel cap daily. Works well for me!

I started taking Super K 5 years ago to keep the calcium out of all the soft tissues of the body including heart valves. My elderly aunt had calcified valves and needed to have them replaced-she didn't make it. After some research, super K seemed to be the answer. An interesting aside, rat studies showed reduction of plaque build-up in the arteries of the body including the coronary arteries after they were fed MK4 (which Super K has). I was excited because I had recently gone to Lifeline Screening and they said I had mild build-up in my carotid artery. I thought, I'll test this on myself, take Super K faithfully everyday and go retest in a few years. Three years went by and I decided to go back to Lifeline Screening and have their battery of tests including the carotid artery sonogram. After the test was done he said the carotid arteries were clear. I asked for a recheck due to family history and he really gave it a hard look and said, all clear! I really was stunned, hopeful yes, but really stunned. This Super K is really a great product.

There has been an huge amount of research done in the past decade that reveals the benefits of vitamin D for optimal health. After suffering heart failure 5 years ago, I was shown to be grossly deficient in D3, however, it wasn't until 4 years into my recovery adopting a new dietary lifestyle that I discovered that I needed K2 to work in synergy with D3 for bone strength and my future cardiovascular health. In simple terms, Vitamin D and Vitamin K work together like this....A large portion of arterial plaque is made up of calcium deposits (hardening of the arteries) Vitamin D has undisputed benefits in improving bone development, helping your body absorb calcium and K2 directs calcium to the right places like your skelton and keeps it out of the places that you don't want it, such as your arteries, organs and joint spaces. There is also medical proof that the safety of Vitamin D depends on Vitamin K. Toxicity (which is rare with D3) is actually a result of Vitamin K2 deficiency. Although I did change my diet drastically over a year ago, I was still struggling to get my cholesterol numbers to safe levels. Upon adopting the addition of K2, my numbers changed drastically in a very short time (within 4 months) and continue to improve. This prompted me to educate myself on every supplement I was currently on and other supplements that I added to ensure Heart Health. If I don't understand why I am taking something now, I will not be consistent. And K2 is a must. Life Extention was suggested to me by a health care professional who offers holistic alternatives to standard medication and supplementation.

I have been taking these pills for a little over 6 weeks. I am a 72 year old male. I was bruising easily; that already is much, much improved. My skin on my forearms was dry to the point that it itched; if I scratched 5 times in the same place, it bruised or bled; that is gone. Bruising from blows still occurs but is much less now. I have been using steroids for 20 years to heal keratosis on my face; the Super K works much better than the steroids. It's too early to see an increase in the enamel on my teeth, but I am confident that will also occur by taking NOW Foods Vitamin D3 5000 Iu, 240 Softgels in combination. I am also very confident this will remove the calcium from my arteries and place it in my bones, preventing osteoporosis. I take many supplements; this supplement has provided more noticeable results than all the others put together. It is a WONDER PILL.
