Studies have explored how vitamin K levels relate to blood vessel health. One area of interest is how higher circulating levels of certain forms of vitamin K1 may connect to aspects of arterial health in some populations.
Seniors often hear that vitamin K is “good for bones,” which is true in moderation through food. However, when it comes to supplements, especially high-dose or inconsistent use, the picture can look different—particularly if someone takes blood-thinning medications like warfarin.
Important note: If you take any prescription blood thinner, sudden changes in vitamin K intake (from food or pills) can affect how well your medication works. Consistency is usually more helpful than high doses.
