I also wouldn't advise people to take vitamin K without knowing whether or not they have a blood disorder, as vitamin K can affect blood thinners and could therefore be dangerous advice to dispense..
I agree. LucyG continues to 'prescribe' supplements to PC members without knowing their full medical history. What she does is wrong, and potentially dangerous.
Thanks for this!
