How much of each (so I can say how much magnesium)?@baccheion Thanks.
I'm getting over 100% of daily requirements probably, as per my Cronometer.
It's hard to keep a good Ca: P ratio though, even though I do believe I follow many RP principles.

So 400-600 mg magnesium to get to a 1:1 or 1:0.75 Ca:Mg ratio. Vitamin D increase calcium bioavailability (ie, intake may be effectively higher than it appears), though I'm not sure if it just does the same with phosphorus. On the other hand, phosphorus is mainly associated with vitamin A.
Did you take with vitamin K2 and magnesium? Vitamin A?With the amount of reports of pain from taking "high" dose D i felt compelling to share my experience. When i started taking 10-20k IU daily i sometimes got slight back ache with the 20k dose. Over the next 6 months i found out i have whole body calcification, and after half a year of work to decalcify, some of the last joints/tendons that got full moving range again were the ones that first started aching with D. I have written some posts about this process on the forums so i won't get into more details here.

One way would be via activating osteocalcin, something that increases calcium deposition into bones. Calcium and phosphorus are the primary mineral components of bone. Unsure past that..it lowers ceruloplasmin. thats probably too much.
maybe 5k IU d3 and 4kIu A a day?
D is supposed to raise calcium, sodium, and lower phosphorus, potassium, magnesium. A does the opposite.
Someone on here said vitamin K2 lowers both calcium and phosphate? Any thoughts on if thats true and if so how that works. if it lowers calcium and phosphate equally
Take 400-600 mg magnesium as a supplement to increase overall intake. 200 mg 2-3x/day or 600 mg before bed.So what would be the wise measure to take? Double down Magnesium intake?
Newbie, sorry if missing the obvious.

You misunderstood me. The pain was from the vitamin D starting to repair the pre-existing condition. In total it took 8 months to heal. Unless i was able to sunbathe daily i would certainly have continued it once i realized it was healing pain.it lowers ceruloplasmin. thats probably too much.

which types do you like, besides oxide, orotate, citrate, malate, glycinate, theronate.
is aspartate fine to use? 200mg a day.
not sure what other forms since I dont want to add more aspartate, taurate or any of the other mentioned forms
do you know if osteocalcin reduces prolactin, and if osteocalcin helps deposit phosphorus into bones as well?
@BigChad I took Mag Glycinate (Bisglycinate and Oxide) in the past.
Has one of the highest bioavailability.
Think Theronate is also great.
There is a nice formulation of Magnesium with the Oxide, Citrate, Malate variants in one capsule. It is called Tri Magnesium - Integrative Therapuetics Brand, and one capsule provides 300 MG (RARE FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN OXIDE). Minimal excipients, and about 20 dollars US for 90 capsules. I do not know what percentage of each makes up the formula.
Aspartate contains low elemental Magnesium by weight - similar to Glycinate, and you'd end up ingesting too much Aspartic Acid.
