Dr. Berg talks about vitamin K1. It is a co-factor or a helper nutrient to make Prothrombin (clotting factor) and very important for making bone. There are also many different types of proteins like C and S in vitamin K1 which are anti-clotting. If you’re in Coumadin, you can’t take vitamin K1 because you have a blood thinner and couldn’t consume a lot of leafy greens. He also discussed the other medication called Eliquis, which can allow you to consume leafy greens.
