What Makes This Vitamin K1 Liquid Drops Stand Out?
Our Vitamin K1 liquid drops are designed to suit the whole family, from newborns right through to adults. The liquid form makes it easy to administer, especially for babies or anyone who struggles with swallowing tablets. The formula uses safflower oil as a carrier, which helps your body absorb this fat-soluble vitamin more effectively.

Health Benefits of Vitamin K1
Vitamin K1 helps with several important bodily functions:
-
Blood clotting: It is necessary for producing clotting factors in the liver, keeping your blood’s coagulation normal.
-
Bone health: Supports the carboxylation of osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium to the bone matrix, helping maintain strong bones.
-
Calcium metabolism: Activates matrix Gla protein, which stops calcium from building up in soft tissues and supports cardiovascular well-being.
Many people add vitamin K1 to their daily routine to complement a balanced diet and active lifestyle.
Vitamin K1 vs K2: Key Differences
Both forms of vitamin K are important, but they have different jobs:
-
Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone): Mainly involved in blood clotting. Found in green leafy vegetables. Has a shorter half-life in the body.
-
Vitamin K2 (menaquinone): Plays a larger role in bone and heart health. Made by bacteria and present in fermented foods. Stays active longer in the body.
For general health, a combination of both can be beneficial. Our product provides vitamin K1, which is the form most often used for newborn supplementation. If you also want K2, consider taking it separately or in a multivitamin.
Recommended Dosage
The adequate intake for vitamin K varies by age. For adults, the National Academy of Medicine recommends 90–120 mcg per day. Newborns typically receive a single dose of 0.5–1 mg at birth, but ongoing oral supplementation may be advised by your paediatrician.
Each serving of our liquid drops delivers a precise amount—check the product label for exact micrograms per serving. Always consult with a health care professional before starting any supplement, especially for infants.
Potential Side Effects & Interactions
Vitamin K1 is generally safe when taken as directed. However, individuals on blood-thinning medications (e.g., warfarin) should be cautious, as vitamin K can interfere with their effects. Always discuss supplement use with your doctor if you are on any medication.
Possible mild side effects are rare but may include stomach upset. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Keep out of reach of children.
Always read the label and follow directions for use.
What Is Vitamin K1?
Vitamin K1, also called phylloquinone, is a fat-soluble vitamin found naturally in green leafy vegetables. It is essential for blood clotting and bone metabolism. As a supplement, it is commonly taken to support bone density and cardiovascular health. Unlike vitamin K2, which is produced by bacteria, K1 comes from plants and is the main form of vitamin K in the human diet.
Our liquid vitamin K1 drops offer a convenient way to supplement this important nutrient, especially for those who prefer a liquid over tablets or capsules. The drops are suspended in safflower oil to boost absorption, since vitamin K1 is fat-soluble.
