Subject: Re: [OM] OT: Blood Clotting
Actually, vitamin K has recently been broken down into many components.
Vitamin K1 is the component that is the dominant form that is commonly found
in plants,

while K2 is found in fermented foods, especially natto.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_K2
Both forms are instrumental in blood clotting, but K2 has been found to be
more instrumental in keeping blood calcium in solution instead of combining
with serum cholesterol, which leads to arterial disease.
