350: Best Vitamin B12, D3 vs. K2, Hormone Balance (HouseCall)

Hello and welcome back to our first #HouseCall of the weekend! We had some great entires over the past week or two from the community and here are today's questions: Gina: Hello. I am vegan and I need to get a B12 supplement. I understand that methylcobalamin is better than cyanocobalamin and oral or sublingual is better than a pill. I found a liquid supplement online from a company called Global Healing that is 80% methyl and 20% adenosylcobalamin. Does this seem good to take or does Dr. Cabral recommend a better brand? Thank you so much.   Patty: Hello Dr Cabral I have been listening to your podcast for about 4 months now and I just love them. Thank you so much for all your helpful information, I really love listening to you and have learned so much. I know that you think it's very important for everyone to get enough vitamin D all year round to prevent serious health issues. And I believe so as well, but I have recently heard that if your are supplementing vitamin D that you must also be taking vitamin K2 or else you will be at a much higher risk for osteoporosis and heart disease. Is this true? What are your thoughts on this? Thank you.   Michelle: Hello again Dr. Cabral! Once again, thanks a million for ALL of your amazing information on your podcast and Instagram posts! My question for you today has to do with my monthly cycle. I am almost 47, probably in peri menopause, eat healthy and exercise regularly. About every 4th or 5th cycle, the first day of my cycle literally about takes me out--migraine, vomiting, horrible cramps, diarrhea. Why is this happening and is there something I can do or stop doing to help it? I have ordered and am waiting to receive your tissue mineral analysis test to start seeing what may be off. Obviously there may be some more testing to do. I also put your daily detox powder in my smoothie every morning. Thanks again, Michelle   Thank you for tuning in and be sure to come back tomorrow for another brand new community Q&A!   - - - Show Notes: http://StephenCabral.com/350   - - - Get Your Question Answered: http://StephenCabral.com/askcabral
