I've read that D3 should be taken in conjunction with K2; else calcium more easily forms arterial plaque. Thoughts?

IIRC, John Cannell MD hawks his D3 with K2, Boron and magnesium.

There was an article in Family Practice News a few years ago. It mentioned blacks taking D3 supplements getting a lot of calcified arteries in larger vessels, e.g. aorta and carotids.

I had a very mild stroke about 3-4 years ago. (Started having seizures in less than 24 hours after the stroke)I had absolutely no risk factors for a stroke other than a small atrial septal defect in my heart which no one knew about until a couple months ago. I was taking D3 with K2, Boron and magnesium at the time and have been too afraid to try it since then but not really sure it had anything to do with the stroke.

What do you think, could vitamin K have contributed to the stroke? I now take 81 mg. aspirin twice a day. At the time I was taking 81mg pretty regularly.
