Sometimes‚ it can seem like there’s an endless list of the nutrients your body needs to function at its highest level. Some of them get more attention than others; vitamin K‚ a fat-soluble vitamin that is essential to the blood clotting process‚ is one of those that are often forgotten. If you injure or cut yourself‚ it’s the vitamin that helps you stop bleeding before you lose too much blood. Vitamin K also contributes to the functioning of GLA proteins‚ which distribute calcium throughout the body.

Leafy‚ green vegetables like spinach‚ broccoli‚ and asparagus are good sources of vitamin K; olive oil‚ canola oil‚ and soybean oil are other substantial sources. Small amounts of this important vitamin can be found in cheese‚ yogurt‚ and green tea. However‚ it’s believed that you only get about half of the recommended dose of vitamin K through the food you eat. If you don’t eat a balanced diet rich in veggies‚ you may have an even greater risk of vitamin K deficiency.

Designs for Health’s Tri-K will help you get the recommended daily dose of Vitamin K with several different types of vitamin K‚ like:

• Vitamin K1—the type of vitamin K that naturally occurs in vegetables.
• Vitamin K2 (in MK-4 form)—useful to bone and vascular health.
• Vitamin K2 (in MK-7 form)—allows the capsule to be metabolized slowly throughout the day.

Each bottle of Tri-K by Designs for Health contains 60 vegetarian capsules‚ which is enough to last for up to two months‚ depending on your dosage.
