Guest guest Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 , Calcium hydroxyapatite research is not my forte. To take it orally sounds much like eating ground up teeth or bones. Calcium cations must link up to fatty acids to be taken up through the walls of the intestines, thus I don't imagine that the hydroxyapatite is all that useful. I do know that vitamin K-3 (menadione) is useful in fighting/preventing osteoporosis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 , I like your description of eating ground up teeth or bones. That is actually something that is recommended for a healthy dog diet and now that I think about it, I am not sure why it wouldn't benefit humans as well. You refer to absorption and recommend Vit K-3 instead of Calcium Apatite for Osteoporosis. Can you elaborate and this please? Is Vit K-3 different thatn Vit K which is used for coagulation. When my dog accidentally ate some mouse poison the vet gave her Vit K. I look forward to your information. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 , Vitamin K3 is menadione, a semisynthetic. K1 and K2 are found in bacteria and green leafy vegetables. K3 is useful against cancer--far more so than K1 or K2. Vitamin K can also be useful against cancer pain. Yugoslavian research in the mid 50's showed it works as well as morphine for cancer patients 75% of the time. I have routinely observed pain reduction with menadione. Most physicians are afraid to use it in therapeutic dosages as part of an oncology protocol as they fear undesired blood clotting. This fear is unfounded. I often use dosages of over 100mg as the bisulfite which makes it water soluble. For osteoporosis you can do a google search of Vitamin K and osteoporosis. It is often used with vitamin D and calcium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 , Did you ever find a bulk source? And, are you still using this supplement (Dr. Ron's)? Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
