Andy & all others,
as Vit-K help's body for clotting, i sugested vit-K rich vegies to my cousin who is a Heamophilia patient (factor 8) , i sugest him both type of kale/cauliflowers and lettuce like vegies a few months ago .. then recently i found Vitamin-K supplement at my chemist's shop . i want to ask .. it will b safe for my cousin to take that vitamin-K supplemment daily ( GNC Brand ), or only when bleeding start's .... i think that it will be good for im to use that supplement .and thats why i have told my aunt to ask his doctor for that , .. there is nothing to think worry in giving that to him except my only concern that is cloting in veins ... i hope to get answer very soon :)
Best Regards
TAke Care

Andy Battaglia:
Hemophilia is not related to vitamin K deficiency, but some feel that a benefit may be found by supplying the body with the nutrients involved in building blood and maintaining the circulatory system. Vitamin K, Calcium, Magnesium, Vitamin C, and Vitamin B complex are all essential for normal blood coagulation, formation, and clotting. So, it won't hurt and may help with his overall blood health if he takes some supplements.

Andy ,
Thank you for a detailed reply , he ( my cousin who is a Haemophilia patient ) is having a bruise over his arm in result of strucked with something , he is around 10-12 years old , i red somewhere that Vit-C is good for bruises bcoze bruise are the indication of damaged blood vessel under skin ( something like that ) so i think he should have to take these supplements especially vit-k bcoze it help's body to proper cloting... question is : is he can take vit-k daily or only when he get hurt or when bleeding start's ???
