Vitamin K overdose

[galya]

I have been looking at my foods for the last few weeks (seeing where my nutrients come from) and I see that my vitamin K consumption is like 800% RDA almost every day. I haven't found any toxisity information yet (apart from overdose with infants), but since it's fat soluble, I was wondering whether it builds up and whether it could cause any problems in the long term (I have green vegetables every day, especially broccoli and cauliflower, which both have it in abundance, add some alfalfa and it gets pretty scary). That's not counting my multi, which already has some in it.
Thanks for any ideas that might come to you.

Gayla, you're probably far better-off eating the amount of Vitamin K that you do, compared to people who eat less. The increase of vitamin K to 5-6 times the RDA and above has shown only positive benefits, and has led people to argue that the RDA bar for vitamin K has been set way too low.

Here's a good article with more detail:

Thanks a lot, at least that worry is now of my mind. I also hope not all of it gets absorbed
I'll just go eat my spinach-cauliflower-parmezan dinner then.
