Yet another ? I should have asked 11 years ago...

What I take:
K1 - DRY form - 1000 mcg capsule, 4 times a week
K2 - DRY form (MK7) - 125 mcg capsule, 4 times a week
I have forgotten what the deal is with MK4 (I understood it for about 10 minutes a few months ago), but I think it is not as important/bioavailable or something as MK7.

The K you are taking has:
500 mcg K1
500 mcg K2 MK-4
50 mcg K2 MK-7

But one question I have is, are these vitamins (presumably not in dry form) actually absorbed through the oral mucosa? I don't see anything in the preparation/ingredients that suggests the formulation does anything but get swallowed and is intended to be absorbed through the gut - and that it is therefore in its normal oily form, which we don't absorb very well.


Daily, I take two (unless I run out and forget to reorder)...three if my INR is too high...which it is after I run out and orget to reorder.

The blurb on the side of the box says, "...tablets dissolve immediately under the tongue...Our proprietary hydrodrying process results in fewer inactive binders and fillers...blah, blah, blah."

I think they work well since they immediately lowered my INR, twice, allowing surgery to proceed.
