Ask Dr. Gourmet

Q: How much Vitamin K is in edamame (soybeans)?

My husband was recently put on coumadin. I cannot find soy beans or edamame listed anywhere. Could you please tell me how they are rated. Thank you.

Q: Dr. Gourmet Says...

One cup of raw soybeans is considered to be very high in Vitamin K. A cup has 87 micrograms (mcg).

A cup of soy milk has only 7 mcg and would be considered low in Vitamin K. A tablespoon of soy sauce has no Vitamin K.

Thanks for writing,

Dr. Gourmet
