Vitamin K is associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular, cancer, or all-cause mortality

My understanding is, if you're on Plavix, aspirin or fish oil, K is safe.

My issue is I see things saying both ways, safe / not safe, so I cant really be sure.

there is a difference between an anti-coagulant and an anti-platelet example:

anti-coagulant is Coumadin
anti-platelet is Effient - - - - like Plavix

You should supplement K2 regardless of medications or blood thinners

i do 200 micrograms daily of K2. I do not supplement K1 with the amount of greens I eat.

 

[Vince]

I supplement with 25 mg of MK4, half a milligram of mk7 and 5 mg of K1 twice a day.

 

[JPB]

One daily per instructions on bottle this what I use Jarrow MK-7

 

[Diesel7213]

Thank you for the input, but what is the difference between K1, 2, 4, 7, etc? How do I know which one I need to take?

This is a website that I get my vitamin K from, I know they are expensive and you may not wish to buy them from here. He gives a good explanation of all the different types of vitamin K.
