Alright, so I was reading about Why We Age on amazon, and the first review says this:
/////////////////////////////
When offered a chance to buy Statins for the Norwegian population, Norway was not impressed with the American Drug Company Clinical Studies where Pfizer chose 20,000 men only, no women, and only men aged 22 to 45, no old men. The Norwegians decided to do their own Cholesterol Study. They did 4 studies named, Hunt-1, Hunt-2, Hunt-3 and Hunt-4. Norway used the entire population of 4 Norwegian cities, about 55,000 Norwegians, more than half, Women and lots of old men in the study. The results were surprising. First the Hunt-2 study says that for Women, high cholesterol is not detrimental and may be Healthy. And for old men, the study showed that Men over 60 years of age with High Cholesterol live longer than Men over 60 with Low Cholesterol. Since this is Dr. Sinclair's book on aging, I think the Norwegian studies deserve a mention. You can find the studies at NIH PubMed. I am 83 years old and refuse to take a Statin. I was diagnosed with cardiovascular disease and Severe Calcification of my 4 Arterial Arteries. My heart surgeon gave me 1 to 2 years of remaining life. I am writing this review 10 years after my Heart Stent Surgery. I searched the internet and found on the NIH PubMed site a study from Poland by researcher, Dr Katheryn Mayzek which said the reason we build artery calcium plaque is the lack of Vitamin K2 in our diet. Being the only hope of removing Calcium from blood vessels, I bought a bunch of Vitamin K2 pills on Amazon. The max pill dosage then was 100 mcg, micrograms. It takes ten of these pills to make 1mg. My brother-in-law and my golfing buddy both had blocked heart arteries and had Stents installed. I took 12, 100mcg pills per day, 4 morning, 4 afternoon and 4 evening. My two friends would only take 2 of the weak pills. After 6 months my four heart arteries were clear of all calcium plaque. My doctor could not believe it. My two friends who only took 2 of the pills each day were still severely calcified and were given open heart surgery to install bypass arteries using arteries from their legs. I was clear. THIS IS IMPORTANT. There is a test, an x-ray, Heart CT Scan called a Calcium Score that finds ALL calcium plaque in your arteries. GET ONE. A heart surgeon and a radiologist will grade your Calcium Plaque telling you if your have dangerous, deadly plaque or not. It is not the calcium plaque that kills us, the plaque covers the interior artery wall denying the artery fresh blood for nourishment and the artery wall becomes toxic with Lesions (think of BIG pimples inside the artery wall) when the Lesion is ripe (it takes years, my 9 lesions were thought to be over 10 years old) it explodes into your artery and most people drop dead or fail to wake in the morning. The Lesions are like bullets pointed at your heart. Get the Calcium Score, it is more important than a EKG which does not detect Calcium Plaque. Calcium Scores predict your chance of experiencing a Lesion explosion in the following years. EKGs can't do that. GET A CALCIUM SCORE. If you do have Calcium Plaque Vitamih K2, MK7 from NATTO will remove the Calcium Plaque, and it is not Cholesterol its Calcium. My heart surgeon said Cholesterol is the basic building bloc of the body and without cholesterol, we die. And the Norwegians and my Heart Surgeon both say there is NO BAD CHOLESTEROL, all cholesterol is good.
He said he did not take Statins and said they were a danger and killed our Mitochondrial. We definitely cannot live without Mitochondrial so why take a Mitochondrial Poison?? That's crazy. Another thing, ask your Cardiologist which Statin He/She takes. I have asked a dozen and they all answered, "I am allergic to Statins, they cause severe muscle pain and I don't take Statins." No kidding, ask your cardiologist. If you don't know what Mitochondrial is or what it does, you need to buy one of the excellent books on Amazon that explains it to you.
I am 83 years old. Retired Navy Pilot and Retired Airline Pilot. I take 6, 500mcg Vitamin K2 tablets I buy on EBAY from London. They cost so much less than any sold on Amazon. Compare the cost per 100mcg. The difference is HUGE. This information is intended for men and women. Get your Calcium Score. Know how clogged your arteries are. One last thing. Harpers Bazzar magazine and at least two other women's magazines and Oprah have done stories on Vitamin K2. They all say, 'Wrinkles are caused by Calcium in Soft Tissue.' Take the K2 and the wrinkles disappear so do the purple blood vessels in our legs. No kidding it works. I also lost ALL joint pain. It was Calcium in the joints. My hip pain kept me awake. Now, all joint pain is gone. And I feel 30, not 83 and plan to live to 120 playing golf and playing with my grandchildren and great grandchildren. God Bless and Good Luck. Dave Williams

Basically, he's saying when he had a bad calcium score he started taking huge doses of MK7 and it improved.
Ok here are my comments:
I have seen big doses of MK4, but not MK7. Is this right about MK7?
I found somewhere that over 200mcg a day of MK7 is supposed to be harmful. Yes?
And this comment had basically nothing to do with the book lol
Can you just end taking something in giant doses like this creating no problems?
And K2 fixes skin problems? What? Is that true? "Wrinkles are caused by calcium in soff tissue."
