Foods high in Vitamin K
Vitamin K is what lets blood clot when it should, and it switches on the proteins that build calcium into bone. Leafy greens carry the K1 form in large amounts; fermented foods and some cheeses carry K2. If you take a blood thinner such as warfarin, keep your vitamin K intake steady and talk to your doctor before changing it.

Eat greens with a little fat (olive oil, cheese, nuts). Vitamin K is fat-soluble and absorbs far better that way.
