Vitamin K is not found in large quantities in breakfast cereals and baked goods. Oatmeal has approximately 3 mcg (micrograms) of vitamin K per serving, a low level that doesn't interfere with medications such as warfarin (generic of Coumadin®), but also doesn't provide the vitamin's associated benefits, such as helping the body absorb calcium or aiding with blood clotting or healing.
Use the following figures as a general guide for evaluating the vitamin K content of foods:
Low: 0-10 micrograms per serving
Medium: 11-24 micrograms per serving
High: 25 micrograms or more per serving
Doctors advise against micromanaging your micrograms, unless medically recommended.
