Took only 100 micrograms vitamin K2/MK-7 around 4 in the afternoon,
by 4:30/5 was getting gassy cramps,then pooed for about an hour. Then had gas all night and even this am. Had not eaten anything during the day that should have given me that much gas.
It is like the metabolic rate of the colon bacteria quadrupled or something.
The colon bacteria are supposed to make vitamin K,trying to find out if they need K for metabolism,something for sure is going on. Have to cut dose way back,to be hopefully sure this does not happen again. Not a fun experiene.
Have to check the stuff I bought to make sure nothing else strange is in the pill.
I know I get little K2 from diet,but the bacteria went crazy which I find interesting,if I can stand the gas. Seems that I might be very deficient in vitamin K.
Early work on vitamin K,downloads slow.
Seems that some bacteria including MAP need vitamin K to grow.
