Although vitamin K is produced by bacteria in the intestines, the intestines are not that good at absorbing the vitamin. So vitamin K is still needed in the diet. Women should get at least 120 micrograms/day, although some research suggests that much more may be needed for maximum health benefits.
So how do you get vitamin K in your diet? Mostly green leafy vegetables like spinach, chard, cabbage, kale, cauliflower, broccoli, parsley and brussels sprouts. Yes, those same foods that we are told over and over again that we are supposed to eat more of.
