Just read a article on Google about vit K. It actually helps with clotting in a normal person, but a person who is on thinners should maintain a equal balance between the 2. Basically don't go binge on dark greens if you are not used to eating them. If you have always eaten dark greens then it says its safe to eat in small quantities. Just my 5¢ worth lol.

I need at least a quarters worth ! Is a whole big can too much ? when I get started on them I dont stop. aspirin 325 and plavix for me and they never test it. tom was on the same and he would bleed easy. he is on something else now.
 
NOOO ! K makes it thinner. stay away from greens on blood thinner !
When I had the brain bleed, they gave me Vit K IV. They don't want you eating greens on coumadin because it counteracts the blood thinning effects.

Foods That Thicken Blood

In some cases, it may be favorable to utilize organic methods of thickening your blood. If you have trouble clotting when dealing with cuts and wounds, the foods below may help ameliorate this problem.

If you are already prone to clotting and DVT, however, avoiding heavy consumption of the following foods can be beneficial to your overall treatment plan.

Vitamin K

Vitamin K, known to play an active role in blood clotting, is typically prescribed to counteract problems related to thin blood. Foods high in Vitamin K (but not Vitamin E, a natural blood thinner) can help thicken blood and increase clotting ability:

  • Parsley
  • Kale
  • Spinach
  • Collard greens
  • Asparagus
  • Cauliflowers
  • Celery
  • Leeks

the whole can would probably be too much if your not used to eating that many greens. They said the key is to maintain what your body is used to. So if you ate 2 servings of dark greens in a day to maintain the level your bodies used to. But don't take my word as gospel. Go Google vit. K & blood thinners.
