Vitamin K and Potassium Deficiency
In healthy adults, a deficiency of vitamin K is rare. It only happens in those with severe malabsorption or malnutrition. Sometimes, people who take a medication called warfarin can be at risk. Typical symptoms include excessive bleeding and increased risk of bone diseases or heart disease.
A deficiency of potassium or hypokalemia can be caused by some conditions, such as the use of antibiotics, magnesium deficiency, excessive vomiting or sweating, diarrhea, overuse of diuretics, and kidney disease. Typical signs include extreme fatigue, nausea, constipation, irregular heartbeat, and muscle weakness or spasms. A blood test can help diagnose hypokalemia. Early treatment is important to prevent life-threatening complications in the long term. [6]
