Détails de la réponse

Vitamin K plays an important role in blood clotting. When we get injured and start bleeding, vitamin K helps to activate certain proteins in our blood that are responsible for clotting and stopping the bleeding. Without enough vitamin K, our blood would not be able to clot properly, leading to excessive bleeding and other complications. Vitamin K is found in a variety of foods such as leafy greens, broccoli, and liver. Additionally, newborns are often given a vitamin K shot to prevent bleeding complications since they may not have enough vitamin K in their bodies yet.
