I have both osteoporosis and Factor V Leiden, and my understanding is that foods high in vitamin K are very good (essential?) for bone strength, but they should be avoided for Factor V Leiden. I m trying to minimize my bone loss through diet and exercise (I m not willing to take medication), but how likely am I to succeed without vitamin K? Thank you very much.
Hi, thank-you for providing the brief history. As per the history it looks you have a bony ailment. The pathophysiology of the bone needs an understanding and also as you are doing exercises I will make some add on. The line of action is very simple, and it works in the majority of cases.- Clinical examination and DEXA scan for assessing osteoporosis.- Simple blood tests.- Calcium and iron Supplement-Vitamin D3 Injection - Diet & Exercises - Regular milk & Sun bath. In my clinical practice with weight-bearing exercises, milk products, sun bath, etc. patients responds well.  The calcium & vitamin D3 levels also increase. Regards Jay In Chat Doctor.
