Osteoporosis and Vitamin K2 Interventionâthe Evidence. Since it was first discovered in 1929, vitamin K has been best been known for its crucial role in the blood-clotting process.

Vitamin K is one of the key factors that allow our blood to clot. It is commonly found in green leafy vegetables. Clotting is a lifesaving process that prevents us from bleeding to death if we are wounded or the skin is punctured. However, for those at risk of stroke, blood clots can ultimately be lethal. For this reason, physicians prescribe blood- thinning medications such as warfarin (CoumadinÂ®) to patients at high risk for developing a clot (thrombus) inside their blood vessels.
