Blood thinner Cumandin reduce Vitamin K1 level in the body.
as vitamin K2 is very similar to K1 it interacts with it as well, and creates K2 deficiency.
K2 has a roll in the process of moving calcium from blood vessels and soft tissues, to the bones and tooth.
So, K2 deficiency creates:
– calcification of blood vessels
– reduced bone deficiency
– Tooth decay
i’ll try to increase K2 consumption while checking INR, and see if it raise K2 level in blood and tissues
Vitamin K2(K2), a therapeutic agent osteoporosis, is prohibited for patients with thrombosis who are receiving warfarin (WF). However, because some aged patients with thrombosis have osteoporosis, some patients treated with WF may be administered K2 concomitantly. We investigated here the interactio …

Can Cumadin (Warfarin) aggravate osteoporosis?
the SEM data show that the protein-protein cross-linking bonds are the starting sites of calcification. In addition, substitution of Ca2+ cations by Mg2+ cations leads to the formation of amorphous hydroxyapatite, preventing aortic valve stenosis, which suggests that treatment with magnesium salts may reduce stenosis of aortic valves…

Studies showed that a calcium to magnesium intake ratio <2.8 is critical for optimal health, supporting a long-held but non–evidence-based recommendation that the calcium to magnesium ratio should be close to 2. Increasing calcium intakes in the United States since 1977 have resulted in a calcium to magnesium ratio >3.0 since 2000, coinciding with increasing rates of T2D and colorectal cancer. US studies assessing oral magnesium therapy or dietary magnesium intakes showed beneficial effects of dietary magnesium in CVD, T2D, and cancers, although similar studies in populations with lower calcium to magnesium ratios (≥1.7) reported the opposite…

Vitamin D in Vascular Calcification: A Double-Edged Sword?
#q
How much sun exposure is needed for vit D instead of supplements?
answer from https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/vitamin-d-from-sun#time-of-day
At noon, the sun is at its highest point, and its UVB rays are most intense. That means you need less time in the sun to make sufficient vitamin D (5Trusted Source).
Many studies also show that the body is most efficient at making vitamin D at noon (6Trusted Source, 7Trusted Source).
For example, in the UK, 13 minutes of midday sunlight exposure during summer three times per week is enough to maintain healthy levels among Caucasian adults (5Trusted Source).
Another study found that 30 minutes ttof midday summer sun exposure in Oslo, Norway was equivalent to consuming 10,000–20,000 IU of vitamin D (8Trusted Source).
The commonly recommended daily dose of vitamin D is 600 IU (15 mcg) (3).
