D + K + Magnesium Stack Capsule

Comment · Sat, January 4, 2020 · 5 pts

An optimized D3 stack is something we will release, for sure. We already have magnesium, and usually that's taken at night. So we will probably not have that in there. It will strictly be a D3 and K2 one.

Which magnesium are you taking? It's magnesium glycinate that makes you sleepier. Magnesium L-threonate and our Micromag don't, though.

Not settled on a formula yet, but the research I am seeing is there is no reason to add in MK-4 if you have MK-7.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3502319/ Does that Chris guy cite any papers for his reasoning to include the other forms? If MQ-4 is not detected in the blood after supplemental dosing, it doesn't really m

Seem like marketing, to be honest. I'd have to see some independent research backing up their claims before I would consider it.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3502319/ That's my issue with MQ-4. I have read the in vitro and animal studies on MQ-4, and originally planned on including it. However, the human studies showing it does no

Not that I want to shit talk your cardio, as I don't know him, but cardiologists often don't know much about pharmacodynamics/pharmacokinetics. It gets pretty complex with certain things. MQ-4 has a lot of good evidence

Have you read those studies and looked how much they were using? The doses they are using are insane! 45mg of MQ-4 for a bone fracture and Osteoporosis study... That's MASSIVE. Sure, you can account for low bioavailabili

That's what we are trying to determine before we settle on a formulation. If there truly is some different effects from MQ-4, I am not opposed to adding it in. However, it just needs to be much higher than anyone else is

The 1mg to 5mg is at least reasonable. LEF and Thorne are generally good, though. I don't really see them doing label dressing or things like that. 15mg is more in line with what I would think would be a good dose. I am

Interesting you notice an effect at that dose. Based on the pharmacokinetic research, that shouldn't be enough to detect in blood. Maybe you are a slow metabolizer of it, and you are getting a stronger effect from lower

Thanks! Any data helps make the decision easier!

I would not freak out about it. It's probably a long shot. However, better to be safe than sorry.

The glycine in the magnesium glycinate is what gives it that sleep-inducing effect.

We were working on it yesterday, in fact! Just finalizing the formula, and deciding on which sources to use. Any suggestions on dose for vitamin D? We were thinking of doing 5,000iu. Thoughts on that?

I take 5,000iu of D3 per day, too. Some days in the summer I just skip if I know I am going to be out in the sun. I think that's a good strategy. We were thinking 50mcg of MQ-7. We were considering adding in more things

Yeah, we could up the MQ-7 dosage. It's very safe. They gave 2,000mg/kg to rats, and it showed zero toxicity. So there is no an upper bound to the safe dosage like zinc. Let me speak to the team and see if 100mcg MQ-7 wo
