This page contains my personal suggestions concerning the vitamins and supplements of the protocol (except for the injections) you can purchase through the internet. We have tried all the brands mentioned and they are of a good quality. The prices are the lowest possible. Every supplement is exactly what the protocol asks for, as it concerns the type and the ingredients it should contain. If you have any other source, make sure that it is a relevant product, since this is important in many cases (eg Vitamin C should not be toxic for the stomach, this is why it should be in the form of Calcium Ascorbate and not Ascorbic Acid or Vitamin Ε should be in the form of D-Alpha- Tocopheryl and not Dl-Alpha-Tocopheryl, since the latter is not natural). If you have spotted any other source, possibly better than the ones mentioned, please let me know in mymultiple@gmail.com According to your location, there might be some problems at the customs. If you purchase within your country there will be no problem. If you purchase from abroad, make sure that there will be no problem at the customs. A limited number of bottles is usually permitted in every order. Most brands from the USA will send to Europe no more that three bottles per order. There are persons who have been ordering from SWANSON without any limitation, though. After a broad research I have come to the following suggestion: If you are interested in a specific vitamin, by clicking on every link you go straight to the webpage where you can purchase it. The type, the company, the count, the potency are analytically mentioned, so as you will be able to calculate how often you have to make your orders.

“Our Best Quality Choice”:

Thorne Research, Vitamin D/K2, 1 fl oz (30 ml)

or Thorne Research, Vitamin D, 1 fl oz (30 ml)

Potency: 1000IU/2 drops (600 servings per container)

Purchase from: USA, iherb.com

Other Ingredients: Medium chain triglyceride oil, mixed tocopherols.

Note: The product with Vitamin K2 should be avoided in case you use anticoagulants. Use the plain Vitamin D instead. Both products are very easy to take, hypoallergenic and is in medium chain triglyceride oil, preserved with mixed tocopherols.

Vitamin K2 exerts a more powerful influence on bone than does vitamin K1. Vitamin K2 is a series of molecules known as menaquinones. The most common and well studied of the menaquinones is MK-4. Thorne’s vitamin K2 is MK-4 and is derived from bacterial fermentation; thus, there is no soy in the product. Vitamin K is also essential for normal cell formation and maintenance of a healthy cardiovascular system.

It is essential to maintain healthy vitamin D levels throughout all stages of life, from fetal development to old age. Vitamin D helps protect a number of important systems in the body, including healthy bones, immunity, and cardiovascular function and it’s absense is linked with MS through numerous research.
