MD Logic After doing a ton of research and in addition to taking a broad spectrum probiotic beta glucan, I have been taking vitamin D3 with K2 daily since the fall started. Specifically, I am taking MD Logic’s Vitamin D3 and K2 which contains two different forms of K2 and is emulsified in olive oil not vegetable oils.  Supplementation has been associated with fewer colds and it also protects against major chronic diseases. I highly recomment MD Logic’s Vitamin D3 plus K2 supplement especially during the fall and winter months which contains two different forms of K2 known as MK4 and MK7. To get my favourite high quality D3 with K2 thats tested for contaminants go to http://mdlogichealth.com/d3 and use coupon code WELLFED for 10% off.
