    It's Vit K2-7 and don't forget the vitamin D and calcium and do check out the list of 20.

    I watch my calcium levels via my blood tests. I am on vitamin D3. I also have vitamin K2. I also have magnesium and zinc. Not very thing has to be pills. Prunes, avocados and kiwi fruit are easy to make part of the diet.

    I make chicken soup using bones and putting in lots of goodies like pearl barley and leafy greens and many other vegetables. Use a whole chicken or  parts that include the bones.

    You can also make jellies using natural fruit and gelatin.

    The more you read the more you will discover clever ways to boost your bone health.
