@ecstatichamster is your vitamin D level 125 nmol/l or ng/ml?

Thanks, that seems to make sense.I only took K2-7 and typically dosed it around 200 - 400 mcg. I used a K2-7 dissolved in MCT-oil and used it sublingually.
I haven‘t felt much at 200 mcg, but at 400 mcg I sometimes felt heart palpitations and craved more calcium-rich stuff, which often made the palpitations go away.
I’ve only have seen some data on S. California lifeguards with vitamin D levels around 40-70 ng/ml, but would love to learn more about it.ng/mL

You mean, you get those both when you supplement Vitamin-K (I'll keep an eye on it if in case it happens to mine)?Hemorrhoids and gut distress. I would say the gut distress is like a serotonin attack (as much as I understand that to be).
Yes. If I take K2 orally, I usually get that. There did seem to be a short period where I could handle it, but that was indeed short. Now I only use it topically. I’m still trying to determine if I get a small amount of side effects from it. I may, but not like taking it orally.You mean, you get those both when you supplement Vitamin-K (I'll keep an eye on it if in case it happens to mine)?
Thanks, when you mentioned that you were able to handle it for a short period -- I remembered my experience on supplementing Thorne's K2 (MK-4 drops) orally.Yes.

Any updates?Yes. If I take K2 orally, I usually get that. There did seem to be a short period where I could handle it, but that was indeed short. Now I only use it topically. I’m still trying to determine if I get a small amount of side effects from it. I may, but not like taking it orally.
I have nothing to report on this because I’m currently not taking any supplements. I can’t risk any negative side effects which may hinder my work which is very physical these days. But, I definitely will try this again and hope to report back.Any updates?
wow, what brand and dosage?After on and off experimentation with k2 I can say it makes me fatigued, bloated and achy.
Kuinonewow, what brand and dosage?
I also took K2 when I was iron loaded, and through the lowering process, and didn't notice the things you mention, at least personally.Does anyone know if there is any interaction between K2 and iron? I can't find much.
I suspect it causes the body to release tissue iron into the blood. This manifests as shortness of breath and low libido/shrinkage for me. I think this because it makes me feel that same as when I take vitamin C, which is known to release iron, or when I take iron directly which I have done in the past. It is interesting that @tankasnowgod has no negative effects from K2 because i know he has intentionally lowered his iron levels.
Ah well this scuppers my theory a bit. What symptoms did you have when you were iron loaded?I also took K2 when I was iron loaded, and through the lowering process, and didn't notice the things you mention, at least personally.
I don't know if I had any noticeable symptoms, but I did notice improvements to mood and energy over the course of getting de-ironed. I did get shocked by static electricity quite a bit when loaded, and that seemed to go away after de ironing, but it wasn't something I noticed immediately, just upon reflection that it hadn't really happened in quite a while.Ah well this scuppers my theory a bit.

Interesting. Was it a blood test that made you decide to lower your iron?I don't know if I had any noticeable symptoms, but I did notice improvements to mood and energy over the course of getting de-ironed.
