Risks from Vitamin K Shot at Birth

Posted Aug 24 2008 7:08pm
Lace at Finding the Truth has an interesting breakdown of the Vitamin k shot given at birth. Apparently there is a potential link to Leukemia.



Apparently one of the ingredients in the shot is Sodium hydroxide or " Lye ". Drain cleaner in baby shots. Nice.



She notes that there is some safer alternatives, oral Vitamin K9 given at a much lower dose over 5 weeks. Also a nursing mom's Vitamin K supplementation of vitamin K will pass through the breast milk to the baby. And apparently formula has plenty.
