Anticoagulants and Vitamin K
Posted on December 4, 2007 |
Tea leaves themselves have a lot of vitamin K, but a cup of brewed tea does not have a significant amount (somewhere between 0.01-0.03 ug per 4 oz). White tea may have more than green tea because of the preparation of the tea preserves nutrients. Further, given that Vitamin K is fat soluble, the bioavailability may not be as great with tea. Soy products do contain vitamin K. One cup of cooked soybeans contains a medium amount (~33 ug) versus a cup of soy milk which contains a small amount(~7.4 ug). The key is to avoid any dramatic shifts in your diet with foods high in Vitamin K.

Stuff About Vitamins

Builder,
I appreciate your feedback. For references, please see any nutrition text dated back to the 1950s and on. Usually from an editorial point, it is considered common knowledge. My prints are more for information and if the reader wants to find out more, I stress that they research on their own.
