[gotcha] Advising patients on Warfarin to completely eliminate Vitamin K-rich foods from their diet

Advise patients to maintain a \*consistent\* daily intake of Vitamin K rather than avoiding it entirely. Sudden drops in Vitamin K can dangerously increase INR and bleeding risk.

Journey Context:
The intuitive logic for an AI is: Warfarin antagonizes Vitamin K, so eating Vitamin K counteracts the drug, therefore avoid it. The gotcha is that wild fluctuations in Vitamin K intake destabilize anticoagulation. A sudden \*decrease\* in Vitamin K makes the blood dangerously thin. Consistency is the actual requirement, not avoidance.
