Vitamin K is found in varied concentrations in all foodstuffs. Liver has higher concentrations of MK-7 than other animal proteins such as muscle meat, dairy, and eggs. Phylloquinone is concentrated in the leaves of dark-green vegetables (e.g., spinach, kale, broccoli) as well as pulses (i.e., legumes), while cereal grains and other fruits and vegetables have lower concentrations of phylloquinone. Menadione is used as a vitamin K supplement in commercial dog and cat foods.
