tips on using holistic alternatives instead of medications for blood thinning?
Hello Wacco friends,
Am helping a friend find holistic alternatives such as food and life style changes, etc to use instead of medications for keeping his blood thin (following surgery and complications) his regular, mainstream doctor is not in favor (only familiar with drugs), so looking for other sound opinions to give him healthier options, if possible.
If you know from personal experience or know of a relevant health practitioner, would you please let me know? please email me back [email protected]
Thanks so much for any tips!

FISH OIL is a natural blood thinner & of course is health building. Would suggest high quality for medicinal use.

I am not an expert but foods that are high in vitamin K assist in thinning the blood.
The foods that I know that are high in vitamin K are buckwheat, onions, and garlic, and they are especially yummy together, sauteed in a skillet (after the buckwheat is cooked or fluffed) with some miso or tamari (soy sauce) and cayenne pepper for seasoning.

Apparently I got my facts backwards.
