- 0:30Speaker 2: Hello and welcome. I'm doctor Troy. This is part one
- 0:33Speaker 2: of our five part series on Vitamin K, and I
- 0:38Speaker 2: gotta tell you it's unusual that I enjoy reading about
- 0:44Speaker 2: a supplement. I mean, I love reading about attrition. I
- 0:48Speaker 2: just do. But when I truly truly enjoy and it's
- 0:51Speaker 2: something like I can't wait to listen to the next
- 0:53Speaker 2: tidbit of information. If I'm listening to an audiobook or
- 0:56Speaker 2: if I'm reading another article, it's just profound everything on two.
- 1:00Speaker 2: So strap in, buckle up, we're going for it now.
- 1:04Speaker 2: The first thing I'm gonna do on this particular podcast
- 1:07Speaker 2: is I'm going to give you the information up front,
- 1:09Speaker 2: So if you need to reference, what did he say,
- 1:12Speaker 2: how much am I supposed to take? What kind do
- 1:14Speaker 2: I want? I'm going to say it all in the
- 1:16Speaker 2: beginning so that the rest of the podcast series you
- 1:20Speaker 2: can understand the information, and then you can refer back
- 1:23Speaker 2: to this one at the very beginning and get the
- 1:25Speaker 2: information you want. So here it is. Vitamin K is
- 1:28Speaker 2: in two forms, MK four and MK seven. MK four
- 1:33Speaker 2: is mostly animal, but it also comes from, believe it
- 1:38Speaker 2: or not, the tobacco leaf. It doesn't mean that you're
- 1:40Speaker 2: smoking when you're taking it. It is an okay supplement
- 1:43Speaker 2: to take. And so most of the MK four you're
- 1:45Speaker 2: gonna find is going to be from the tobacco leaf.
- 1:48Speaker 2: But there are some sources that do use animal, which
- 1:51Speaker 2: I believe is a little bit better of that MK four.
- 1:54Speaker 2: It is less, less long lasting. It has a two
- 1:59Speaker 2: hour half life in the body, and so it takes
- 2:02Speaker 2: more doses more frequently, so you can take bigger doses
- 2:05Speaker 2: of MK four, and most research they use MK four
- 2:08Speaker 2: in big doses. Now, most researchers say one hundred and
- 2:12Speaker 2: twenty micrograms. You heard me right, tiny micrograms is enough,
- 2:18Speaker 2: But most of what I see is between two hundred
- 2:20Speaker 2: and six hundred micrograms a day is wise. There is
- 2:25Speaker 2: no upper limit dose danger. It seems to be well tolerated.
- 2:28Speaker 2: When you read research on those people that have some
- 2:31Speaker 2: disease conditions that they are experimenting With MK four, they
- 2:35Speaker 2: will do twenty to ninety milligrams. We are talking ten times,
- 2:42Speaker 2: almost one hundred times there, aredas if you will. So
- 2:48Speaker 2: it seems to be well tolerated at some pretty catastrophic doses.
- 2:51Speaker 2: The next type of vitamin K two is MK seven
- 2:56Speaker 2: that comes from bacteria, and it has a very long
- 3:01Speaker 2: half life fifty hours, so a couple of days when
- 3:05Speaker 2: we take high doses of MK seven, it's possible that
- 3:09Speaker 2: it could become toxic in the body. Nobody's done any
- 3:11Speaker 2: research that I've seen yet, so I don't know. We
- 3:14Speaker 2: tend to do only a couple of one hundred maybe
- 3:16Speaker 2: four hundred micrograms of MK seven a day, and you
- 3:20Speaker 2: don't have to take it three times a day. You
- 3:22Speaker 2: can just take it once a day. It's much easier. Now.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Oftentimes you'll see it paired with vitamin D three and
- 3:28Speaker 2: so I will get to that later on. But for
- 3:31Speaker 2: vitamin D I read all kinds of research that shows
- 3:34Speaker 2: even up to thirty thousand and thirty five thousand international
- 3:38Speaker 2: units of vitamin D a day for six months at
- 3:41Speaker 2: a time is well tolerated. So I'm not so concerned
- 3:45Speaker 2: about vitamin D like I used to, having read massive
- 3:48Speaker 2: amounts of research and jaw dropping the amazing things as
- 3:53Speaker 2: I watch people take high doses of that. It seems
- 3:55Speaker 2: to be even more tolerated when K is with it,
- 3:59Speaker 2: and of course even more tolerated when vitamin A is
- 4:02Speaker 2: included with those two. And we will be talking about
- 4:05Speaker 2: that in the last part of our series. So let's
- 4:09Speaker 2: get into it. You've got the dosages, now, what is
- 4:14Speaker 2: vitamin K two. Vitamin K two is a substance that
- 4:20Speaker 2: basically tells calcium where to go in the human body. Now, calcium,
- 4:26Speaker 2: you've probably heard me speak at length than If you
- 4:28Speaker 2: have not, you might listen to one of my last
- 4:31Speaker 2: podcasts on calcium, which I talk about of all the
- 4:34Speaker 2: minerals in the human body, calcium pretty much outweighs all
- 4:39Speaker 2: of them combined. It's real close. And so calcium being
- 4:44Speaker 2: one of the most important minerals in the human body,
- 4:46Speaker 2: if it starts precipitating into tissues, we now have a
- 4:51Speaker 2: big issue like, oh, kidney stones, our tyroscrotic plaquing, heart disease, cataract.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Anywhere where you're going to find calcium precipitating out of
- 5:06Speaker 2: tissues now becoming salts or like stalagtites stalagmites, you're going
- 5:11Speaker 2: to likely find a vitamin K two deficiency at its source.
- 5:16Speaker 2: Now with that vitamin K two is very much helped
- 5:19Speaker 2: by eating good fats. Now here is the whole thing
- 5:23Speaker 2: that nature designed. When an animal eight grass, it developed
- 5:27Speaker 2: good omega three fats in its fat. Along with eating
- 5:31Speaker 2: that tender grass, it would eat vitamin K one in
- 5:36Speaker 2: the chlorophyll producing portions of that grass. That's where K
- 5:41Speaker 2: one exists. So that K one in the animal's body
- 5:45Speaker 2: is converted to K two or menequinone four. So K
- 5:51Speaker 2: two is meniquinone, K one is filiquinone, Now K two
- 5:57Speaker 2: it is. It has all of different forms, they say,
- 6:02Speaker 2: anywhere from MK four to MK ten, and so there
- 6:06Speaker 2: can be different foods that literally have a smattering of
- 6:10Speaker 2: all of them. Though MK four is technically what animals produce.
- 6:15Speaker 2: If they are allowed to grasp feed, they convert that
- 6:19Speaker 2: beautiful K one. And in my neck of the woods,
- 6:23Speaker 2: in nutrition, we've always known it as pro thrombin factors.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Pro Thrombin is clotting. So if anybody knows anything about
- 6:32Speaker 2: vitamin K they're gonna say, oh, that's for clotting, and
- 6:34Speaker 2: you have to be careful about taking anything that has
- 6:37Speaker 2: a lot on K one when you're on blood thinners,
- 6:39Speaker 2: which is true, but K two is actually beneficial to
- 6:45Speaker 2: do when taking blood thinners like kumitin. So here's the study,
- 6:50Speaker 2: and I've talked about this in some of my vitamin
- 6:53Speaker 2: D podcasts. They gave rats five million international units of
- 6:59Speaker 2: vitamin D, equivalent to a human taking five million, by
- 7:02Speaker 2: the way, So they gave the animal that much vitamin D,
- 7:06Speaker 2: the animal calcified its tissues, muscles, skin, eyes, you name it,
- 7:13Speaker 2: it calcified. It died in two weeks. When they gave
- 7:17Speaker 2: that same animal, or excuse me, a different animal with
- 7:21Speaker 2: that same dose of five million international units of vitamin
- 7:24Speaker 2: D and they gave them cumidin, they calcified that animal
- 7:29Speaker 2: in ten days. They did it faster. So with vitamin
- 7:32Speaker 2: D alone it was two weeks. When you add cuminin,
- 7:35Speaker 2: it was ten days. They literally could kill that animal
- 7:38Speaker 2: in ten days, meaning all the calcium would rush out
- 7:41Speaker 2: of the animals skeleton and calcify all the tissue, the heart,
- 7:45Speaker 2: the lungs, the kidneys, the blood vessels, the eyes, the
- 7:49Speaker 2: skin everything. So with that they said, okay, we're going
- 7:54Speaker 2: to give some vitamin A to animals. That we give
- 7:58Speaker 2: those same dose and it was protected. Thus we look
- 8:02Speaker 2: at cod liver oil, which has high dose vitamin D,
- 8:06Speaker 2: but it also has high dose vitamin A. Now, when
- 8:10Speaker 2: they did vitamin K, it also was as equally performing
- 8:16Speaker 2: and up to the task as vitamin A for stopping
- 8:19Speaker 2: tissue calcification. So for those of you that are going
- 8:21Speaker 2: to consider doing high dose vitamin D or have you
- 8:25Speaker 2: should be doing some form of vitamin A and vitamin
- 8:28Speaker 2: K two their paramount and helping your body not calcify
- 8:32Speaker 2: as well as protecting your bones and making sure the
- 8:35Speaker 2: calcium stays there. Now, there are many different things that
- 8:40Speaker 2: vitamin K does that they now know. They understand now
- 8:44Speaker 2: how it takes or rather tells the calcium. Hey, you
- 8:48Speaker 2: don't belong in these tissues. You need to go back
- 8:51Speaker 2: to the bone, and so we know how it's done.
- 8:54Speaker 2: We don't really need to talk about the nitty gritty
- 8:56Speaker 2: of that, though you're welcome to research it and do that.
- 8:58Speaker 2: That's not the purpose of this particular time. Now that
- 9:00Speaker 2: we've kind of understand why we need that K two,
- 9:04Speaker 2: now the question is where do we get it, So
- 9:07Speaker 2: we're going to have a little bit of help with
- 9:10Speaker 2: things like grass fed beef, grass fed cheese, grass fed butter,
- 9:17Speaker 2: and of course farm fresh eggs are some are some
- 9:20Speaker 2: of the most easiest sources to get. If you like brie,
- 9:24Speaker 2: like a soft cheese that is actually fairly exquisitely high
- 9:28Speaker 2: and k. What I say exquisitely high. It's like sixty
- 9:32Speaker 2: micrograms in a serving, and you might think, well, that's
- 9:35Speaker 2: not that much, yes, but compared to other foods, it's
- 9:38Speaker 2: quite a bit. Now, I would love to tell you
- 9:41Speaker 2: that somebody's done the research, but I have not found
- 9:43Speaker 2: it yet. On raw milk by a grass fed animal,
- 9:47Speaker 2: I have not seen that. If it's just a regular
- 9:50Speaker 2: store bot whole milk, it's a pathetically small one microgram
- 9:53Speaker 2: in three and a half ounces of milk. It's ridiculous.
- 9:57Speaker 2: So when I tell you grass fed milk, grass fed cheese,
- 10:02Speaker 2: grass fed butter, I am assuming it's going to be higher.
- 10:06Speaker 2: But nobody has told me such. At this point. I
- 10:10Speaker 2: just know that it is, so as I have that information,
- 10:13Speaker 2: as I find it, I will report it, but right
- 10:16Speaker 2: now I cannot speak on it. So where do we
- 10:19Speaker 2: get it. We get it from real foods. Now here's
- 10:22Speaker 2: the kicker. What blocks or what decreases our food's ability
- 10:28Speaker 2: to deliver vitamin K or destroy it. And if you're
- 10:31Speaker 2: already thinking he's gonna say fried, fatty, refined process fast foods,
- 10:38Speaker 2: you're right. When you hydrogenate and oil, here's the kicker though.
- 10:42Speaker 2: When you hydrogenated oil, not only are you wrecking the
- 10:45Speaker 2: oil that was supposed to be good for us, but
- 10:49Speaker 2: because you're hydrogenating that oil in such a way, everything
- 10:53Speaker 2: else that was in that oil, the delicate other fatty
- 10:57Speaker 2: vitamins like D, like like A, like K, like F
- 11:04Speaker 2: they all get messed up too. And so what vitamin
- 11:08Speaker 2: K turns into is hydrofiliquinone, which now is it's like
- 11:15Speaker 2: a mutant form that's just really bad. So not only
- 11:20Speaker 2: are the transfats just bad for us, they actually speed
- 11:25Speaker 2: up the decay process and make our tissues calcify faster.
- 11:30Speaker 2: So if we wonder why people have cataracts when they're older,
- 11:34Speaker 2: why there's osteoporosis running rampant, why people get more and
- 11:38Speaker 2: more kidney stones, wonder no more. It is literally this
- 11:44Speaker 2: hydrogenation of oils, and the other delicate structures within those
- 11:48Speaker 2: oils that are also getting damaged by that process. So
- 11:53Speaker 2: we think, well, hydrogen oils, yeah, they're bad, but guess what,
- 11:58Speaker 2: it's the other little products that are in there that
- 12:01Speaker 2: are even worse when you hydrogenate and process these foods.
- 12:07Speaker 2: So let's say that, well, I'm not eating hydrogenated oils. Well,
- 12:15Speaker 2: if you're eating a boxed, canned, process refined fast food,
- 12:19Speaker 2: then you're still destroying those delicate fats and warping them,
- 12:23Speaker 2: and you're making things that were never meant to be
- 12:26Speaker 2: made for the human body. And so I'm just going
- 12:30Speaker 2: to recommend that you steer clear of all of those
- 12:34Speaker 2: things and that you begin searching for those foods that
- 12:40Speaker 2: are much more natural, much more like we were intended
- 12:44Speaker 2: to eat them. So what is vitamin K two? It
- 12:49Speaker 2: is menquinone four and menicuin one seven. Mostly we don't
- 12:53Speaker 2: need a lot, We just need a couple of one
- 12:56Speaker 2: hundred micrograms of each. If we're working on something specific,
- 13:00Speaker 2: like somebody has dementia or Alzheimer's because they've got calcification
- 13:04Speaker 2: in their brain, or they've got MS, which is calcification
- 13:08Speaker 2: in the brain, or they've got kidney stones, or they've
- 13:11Speaker 2: got wrinkles, or they've got heart disease or alteriroscotic placking
- 13:16Speaker 2: or whatever else. Those dosages go way up. But I
- 13:21Speaker 2: would expect you to have a very different diet. If
- 13:25Speaker 2: you're going to poke on something like K two to
- 13:28Speaker 2: help you, then I would highly expect you to want
- 13:31Speaker 2: to do other things too. And so as you begin
- 13:34Speaker 2: to adopt those beautiful dietary choices that we know are correct,
- 13:40Speaker 2: it's not like this is rocket scide. It's like, oh
- 13:43Speaker 2: my gosh, are you kidding? I should be any natural foods.
- 13:46Speaker 2: Of course, we all know it's better. Nobody wakes up
- 13:49Speaker 2: and says what it's better? Since win? I mean, those
- 13:55Speaker 2: vegetables grow in dirt. Do you realize that, Come on,
- 13:58Speaker 2: they're dirty? Nobody thinks that, And if they do, I
- 14:02Speaker 2: don't know that there's help for them, and they probably
- 14:03Speaker 2: haven't listened this long anyways to my podcast. But for
- 14:06Speaker 2: the rest of us, we just need to start doing
- 14:09Speaker 2: what we know to be true. To be true to us.
- 14:12Speaker 2: It's not like we're expecting to live forever in these bodies.
- 14:15Speaker 2: But I'll tell you what, I would love to have
- 14:18Speaker 2: a body that does not have pain from arthritis that
- 14:21Speaker 2: I'm not worried about heart disease. I'm not worried about
- 14:24Speaker 2: getting sick. I'm not worried about by a digestive system.
- 14:27Speaker 2: I'm not worried about getting cataracts or kidney stones or wrinkles.
- 14:31Speaker 2: That I enjoy for the time that I have here
- 14:34Speaker 2: as much as humanly possible, and I'm not asking for
- 14:38Speaker 2: extra time. I'm just asking for quality. What could we
- 14:42Speaker 2: ask more for? Anyways? So K two, we're gonna we're
- 14:47Speaker 2: gonna throw the doors off of this particular vitamin over
- 14:51Speaker 2: the next couple of weeks months as we unpack these podcasts.
- 14:56Speaker 2: So stay tuned, buckle up, strap in, and we're off
- 15:00Speaker 2: for the ride. Until next time I'm doctor, Try and
- 15:02Speaker 2: remember there is way more right with you than there
- 15:06Speaker 2: is wrong with you.
