Vitamin K Rich Food #2: Chicken

Vitamin K, in the form of K2, is found in meats such as chicken. 100 grams of chicken supply 60 mcg of vitamin K. Chicken, as well as other meats, are fairly common in non-vegetarian/vegan households, making vitamin K easy to obtain.

When eaten without skin, chicken is a versatile lean protein source. Dark meat has a higher fat content than white meat. One ounce of chicken provides 7 grams of protein. Dry heat cooking methods, such as broiling and grilling, are better for cooking chicken to retain all the vitamins. Vitamins can easily be destroyed by heat, light, and other conditions.
