Green juices & too much Vitamin K

by Jack Townsend
(Los Angeles, CA)

I juice mostly green leafy vegetables (kale, chard, collards, mustard greens) along with carrots to moderate the taste. I don't have any blood clotting problems but could I be creating a clotting problem for myself because of the high content of vitamin k in my juices? I usually have 8-12 ounces of juice every other day.

From Yegyan (guest author):

You should not have a problem with blood clotting problems. Unless there is another condition you are predisposed to, juicing the leafy greens you are describing will help the condition of your blood, not hurt it.
