Vitamin K1 molecule C013 / 8902
Vitamin K1 molecule. Computer model showing the structure of a molecule of vitamin K1, also called phylloquinone. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded: carbon (grey), hydrogen (purple) and oxygen (red). Vitamin K1 is an essential vitamin that is found in dark green leafy vegetables, meat, dairy products and eggs. It is necessary for blood clotting and bone growth. Deficiency can lead to uncontrolled internal bleeding, and mineral deposits on cartilage regions and on the inner walls of blood vessels

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of a Vitamin K1 molecule, also known as phylloquinone. The computer-generated model beautifully illustrates the arrangement of atoms within this essential vitamin. Each atom is represented by a sphere and color-coded to distinguish carbon (grey), hydrogen (purple), and oxygen (red). Vitamin K1 plays a vital role in our overall health and can be found naturally in dark green leafy vegetables, meat, dairy products, and eggs. It is an indispensable nutrient required for blood clotting and bone growth. Deficiency of this crucial vitamin can lead to severe consequences such as uncontrolled internal bleeding or mineral deposits forming on cartilage regions and inner walls of blood vessels. The significance of this molecular compound lies not only in its chemical composition but also in its impact on our well-being. As a dietary supplement, Vitamin K1 serves as an important biochemical component that supports various bodily functions. Ramon Andrade's stunning artwork offers us a glimpse into the microscopic world where science meets artistry. This visually striking image provides valuable insights into the complex nature of vitamins while reminding us about the importance of maintaining a balanced diet enriched with essential nutrients like Vitamin K1.
