Another thing that really helps in blood clotting is the presence of Vitamin K in one's body. Vitamin K aids in blood coagulation, without it, uncontrolled bleeding occurs.

Hence, we need to feed with meals that contains V-K

Vitamin k is not directly involved in the coagulation cascade.

What vit-k does is it carboxylates factors II, VII, IX and X. Without this, they are non functional.

Thanks for stopping by 😃

Yes definitely plays a role. It is in fact supplemented in some forms of bleeding.
