Vitamin K Equivalents

Updated May 28, 2015

I've kept my coumadin levels very steady because I eat the same thing every day, one half of a bag of prewashed lettuce. Depending on the kind, the bags are normally 7or 9 ounces.
The thing is I'm getting tired of it. So without changing my coumadin, how much fresh green beans or canned green beans should I eat? And is there a good place to find these answers?

Hello, Robert! How are you?

What type of lettuce?

Not all of it is high in vitamin K, for instance iceberg lettuce is actually very low in it.

However, you should also be okay with green beans, because they are also listed as being very low in it.

A search for vitamin k levels in foods will turn up several websites that list the information for you, all are free to access.

The FDA classifies Coumadin as a blood thinner and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and easy bruising.
