Sources of Vitamin K
Vitamin K is fairly widely distributed in foods. It appears abundantly in cauliflower, cabbage, spinach, alfalfa, yoghurt, soya beans, and, to a lesser extent, in wheat and oats. Animal products contain only a little vitamin K. Cow's milk is a better source than human milk. Vitamin K is also manufactured by bacteria in healthy intestines.
