Top Natural Food Sources

Kale (highest concentration)
Spinach
Turnip Greens

Important Nutritional Notes

Absorption: Dietary fat is required in a meal to properly absorb fat-soluble vitamins like vitamin K.
Gut Synthesis: While vitamin K1 comes from plants, vitamin K2 (menaquinone) is synthesized by beneficial bacteria in the intestinal tract and found in animal products and fermented foods.
Medication Interactions: Individuals taking blood-thinning medications (such as Warfarin/Coumadin) must maintain a consistent, moderate intake of vitamin K and consult a healthcare professional before drastically increasing consumption of these high-source foods.
