What is Vitamin K1 Powder?
Vitamin K1, also known as phytomenadione, phylloquinone, and
phylloquinone, is chemically known as
2-methyl-3-phytol-1,4-naphthoquinone. It is a polycyclic aromatic
ketone and a fat-soluble vitamin. It is stable to air and moisture
but degrades in sunlight. It is widely found in natural green
plants.
Vitamin K1 is a fat-soluble vitamin in the vitamin K family. Its
core functions are closely related to blood coagulation and bone
health. It is naturally present in foods such as green leafy
vegetables and vegetable oils, and is primarily consumed through
the human diet.
key Features
1.Coagulation
Vitamin K1 is an essential cofactor for the liver to synthesize
coagulation factors (II, VII, IX, and X). A deficiency may lead to
prolonged clotting time, manifesting as bleeding gums, nosebleeds,
or slow wound healing.
2.Bone Health
It participates in the synthesis of osteocalcin (a bone matrix
protein), helping calcium deposition in bones and reducing the risk
of osteoporosis. Studies have shown that adequate vitamin K1 may
reduce the incidence of fractures.

Package & Storage
Our packing method is 1KG/Aluminium bags, 25kg/drum
For some products that require special packaging during
transportation, we will carry out more delicate packaging. For
example, retinal needs to be stored at -20 °C, so we choose cold
chain transportation during transportation; deoxyarbutin will
change color during transportation, so we will Vacuum packing of
deoxyarbutin
