You may have heard the saying "don't overdo it". This is an incredibly important phrase in terms of certain nutritional items. There is a reason why certain nutritional items give you a count of the percent of "What a Normal Human should consume in a day" or "Daily Value" (nutritional facts). A lot of times you should only consume that one hundred percent more or less, because that is the amount your body will tolerate and the max it makes use of; Vitamin C for example, you'd just urinate, if you have too much.

Vitamin K though is a bit nastier than Vitamin C. It is a fat soluble vitamin (is stored in fat for a long amount of time) in the DEKA group of vitamins (D, E, K, and A) While vital at normal levels for blood coagulation and calcium metabolism, Excessive consumption of excess of Vitamin K can lead to a conditional called Hypervitaminosis or Vitamin (K) Toxicity. This can cause a break down especially in regards to blood coagulation, and you may begin to bleed... a lot. It doesn't help that instead of passing itself swiftly out of the body, it will instead stick to fat cells, for a great deal of time (makes it easier to reach toxic levels too)

Which subtype of type a fibers transmits signals that are interpreted and perceived as pain?
borishaifa [10]

Delta is a type of fibre that transmits signals that are interpreted and perceived as pain.

<h3>Delta fibres</h3>

A delta fibres (also known as A fibres) are a type of sensory fibre. They respond to cold and pressure stimuli, and as nociceptors, their stimulation is perceived as fast/first pain input. Because they are thinly myelinated, they transmit impulses quicker than unmyelinated C fibres but slower than other, thicker myelinated "A" class fibres.

Structure

They have myelinated axons that are thin (2 to 5 m in diameter) and have a moderate conduction velocity, or speed at which a nerve signal moves (2 to 30 m/s). These nerve fibres make up the afferent portion of the reflex arc that causes the body to "draw away" from noxious stimuli because they are linked to acute (sharp) pain (e.g. retracting your hand away from a hot stove). A part of A fibres is also linked to pressure and temperature perception (also known as "cold receptors" in mammals). Contrarily, slow-conducting, unmyelinated C fibres convey gradual, scorching pain.
