Vitamin K
Vitamine K includes a group of fat-solule vitamins that are essential for maing the blood clot. These vitamines are rather abundant in food. They are found particularly in the green leafy vegetables, such as spinach, cabbage, kale, and cauliflower. Pork liver is also excellent source of Vitamin K.
Intestinal Bacteria manufacture Vitamin K in the human body. Therefore, deficiencies of Vitamin K are rarely the result of poor diet. But deficiencies can result when something interferes with the normal function of the intestines. Doctors sometimes give mothers Vitamin K before childbirth as a precaution against hemorrhages in the newborn baby.
