Increased intakes of vitamin K1 may lower the risk of developing type-2 diabetes in elderly people with a high risk of cardiovascular disease, says a new study.
There is an irony in these results. Most people over the age of 60 with a risk of cardiovascular disease (and virtually all people over 75) are prescribed warfarin, a blood thinning medication.
Vitamin K contributes to clotting. In patients on warfarin, Vitamin K intake is discouraged to make it easier to regulate medication levels and maintain a proper blood flow.
Vitamin K is found in many vegetables with additional health properties such as broccoli and leafy greens. If an increase in this vitamin could help lower the risk of diabetes, some patients may have to make a decision whether they can properly regulate their levels on warfarin.

Money does buy happiness. But is it other people's money or money that we worked for or does it even matter?
Americans are better off but are unhappy as a whole because of the comparison that we make to the rich and famous. Also, I believe that Americans expect more opportunity and equality when it comes to having money.
