My mother tried vit k2 + d3 liquid from Thorne research 45 mg k2, for 4-5 months. Since this did not help her counts, she tried osteo-k minis for a month. The testimonials on the nbi website are very encouraging but did not help my mother. I know of one more mds patient who has been taking osteo-k regular caps for 6 months+, no improvement in counts yet.
Since these have no side effects, it's worth a try as everyone responds differently.
