I printed your list of high Vitamin K foods. Are dried apricots high in Vitamin K?
One cup of sliced apricots is very low in Vitamin K at 5 micrograms. A cup of dried halves is only 4 mcg.
There is an easy way to find out about the nutrition content of any food. The USDA National Nutrient Database is at this link:
By entering an ingredient and following the steps, this website will report the complete nutritional values of any ingredient and many prepared foods. The Vitamin K content is the last listing at the bottom of the Vitamins section. If it is not there, the food or ingredient that you searched on doesn't contain enough Vitamin K to be reported.
Thanks for writing.
