Discover Tablets, Count — Looking to support your bone health and normal blood clotting? KAL's Vitamin K1 tablets deliver 100 mcg of phylloquinone in a quick-dissolving formula that's easy to take daily.

Health Benefits of Vitamin K1

• Supports bone health – Vitamin K1 helps activate osteocalcin, a protein that binds calcium in bones, promoting bone density and strength.
• Promotes normal blood clotting – It is required for the synthesis of clotting factors in the liver, helping your body form clots when needed.
• Boosts protein synthesis – K1 supports the production of proteins in plasma, kidneys, and bones, contributing to overall structural integrity.
• Antioxidant properties – Phylloquinone may help protect cells from oxidative stress, though more research is needed.

KAL’s rapidly dissolving tablets make it simple to incorporate this essential nutrient into your daily routine.

Recommended Dosage

Each tablet provides 100 mcg of Vitamin K1, which aligns with the Adequate Intake (AI) for adult men (120 mcg) and women (90 mcg). Taking one tablet daily with a meal containing fat can enhance absorption. Always follow the suggested use on the label and consult your health care professional for personalised needs. Always read the label and follow directions for use.

What Is Vitamin K1?

Vitamin K1 is a fat-soluble vitamin naturally found in green leafy vegetables like spinach, kale, and broccoli. It is a key cofactor in the synthesis of proteins involved in blood coagulation and bone metabolism. Unlike synthetic forms, phylloquinone from supplements like KAL provides a direct source that your body can use efficiently.

Vitamin K1 vs. K2: Key Differences

Vitamin K exists in two primary forms: K1 (phylloquinone) and K2 (menaquinone). While both support blood clotting, K1 is more directly involved in coagulation and is stored primarily in the liver. K2, found in fermented foods, supports calcium distribution in bones and arteries. For most people, K1 is essential for maintaining normal clotting function and bone health, making it a foundational supplement.

Potential Side Effects & Interactions

Vitamin K1 is generally safe at recommended doses. However, it may interact with blood-thinning medications like warfarin. If you take anticoagulants, consult your doctor before use. Allergic reactions are rare. Because K1 supports clotting, high doses might interfere with anticoagulant therapy. As with any supplement, discontinue use if adverse effects occur.

How to Choose a Vitamin K1 Supplement

When selecting a supplement, consider form, dosage, and purity. KAL tablets are vegetarian-friendly, rapidly dissolving, and free from common allergens. The 100-tablet bottle offers a supply of over three months. Look for trusted brands that follow good manufacturing practices (GMP).
