Vitamin K Supplements: K1, K2 and What the Label Actually Declares
Vitamin K1 and K2 are related forms, but a product containing one should not be described as the other. Whole Food Folate declares a small K1 amount within a folate formula; it is not presented here as a standalone K2 supplement.
Compare the exact preparation and labeled serving
Whole Food Folate lists vitamin K1 separately from folate and B12. Compare its six-tablet serving and declared K1 amount without inferring an unlisted MK-7 content from its greens or describing all vitamin K forms as equivalent.
The amounts below reproduce the inspected manufacturer online panel. They describe labeled servings, not an individualized regimen. Confirm your selected package and review the full ingredient list and dietary attributes on the product page.

What the ingredient evidence can establish
Vitamin K is needed for normal blood clotting and contributes to proteins involved in bone metabolism. That role alone does not establish that a particular K2 product prevents fractures or that a folate formula provides a therapeutic vitamin K regimen.
Research uses different vitamin K forms and amounts. NIH discusses continuing uncertainty around several proposed health applications. Preserve those distinctions when comparing K1 with menaquinone forms such as MK-7.

Review suitability, medicines and the whole formula
Vitamin K can materially affect warfarin therapy. People taking warfarin need consistent intake and clinician-guided changes, including changes to greens-containing supplements. Do not stop prescribed anticoagulation or add a vitamin K formula to counteract it yourself.
Establish whether the question is K1 intake, a specific K2 preparation, bone health or medication management. A low K1 declaration inside a folate formula is a label match, not proof that it fits every vitamin K search.
