What is Vitamin K?
Vitamin K is an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in blood coagulation and bone health. There are two main forms: Vitamin K1, primarily found in green leafy vegetables, and Vitamin K2, found in meat, dairy products, and fermented foods.
Why should you test Vitamin K levels?
Measuring Vitamin K levels can be useful for people with certain medical conditions, such as osteoporosis, or for those who have an increased risk of blood coagulation disorders. It is also valuable for individuals who wish to optimize their vitamin intake for general health promotion.
What does it indicate?
The amount of Vitamin K in the blood can indicate how well your body is supplied with this essential nutrient, which in turn influences blood coagulation and bone health.
What does a high Vitamin K level mean?
A high level of Vitamin K may indicate adequate or excessive intake of this vitamin, which in rare cases can increase the risk of blood coagulation issues.
What does a low Vitamin K level mean?
A low level of Vitamin K may indicate a deficiency, which can increase the risk of bleeding and bone weakness. This can be particularly concerning for the elderly, people with chronic diseases, or those using certain medications that affect Vitamin K absorption.
