Neo, Iā€™m slow in getting to this conversation. But, in case you didnā€™t get an answer here is what ChatGPT says:

Menadione (Vitamin K3) is a synthetic compound that is not commonly found in natural food sources. However, it is sometimes used in animal feed and supplements due to its vitamin K activity. Unlike natural forms of vitamin K, such as:

  • Vitamin K1 (Phylloquinone) ā€“ Found in leafy green vegetables (spinach, kale, broccoli).
  • Vitamin K2 (Menaquinone) ā€“ Found in fermented foods, animal products, and certain cheeses.

Menadione is not typically used in human dietary supplements due to concerns about potential toxicity at high doses. Instead, natural vitamin K sources are preferred for human nutrition.
