How much Vitamin K is in orange bell peppers?

My mom is on warfarin and I have gone through your listing regarding the vitamin K content in foods but for some reason, orange peppers are not listed. Can you help me out? My mother eats the yellow peppers because their vitamin K level is zero and I would like her to have some variety.

Dr. Gourmet Says...

Yellow, red and orange peppers have a very low amount of Vitamin K and should be safe for those taking Coumadin (warfarin).

Thanks for writing,
