Vitamin K is essential for the activation of enzymes that speed up processing of a certain amino acid, known as glutamic acid. This process results in a conversion of glutamic acid to gamma-carboxyglutamic acid, a critical step for calcium binding. Vitamin K and its ability to bind calcium is required for activating seven different proteins that help with coagulation, leading to blood clotting
