Is it healthy to resume eating lots of spinach and other leafy greens post Coumadin treatment?


Posted by cardigirl

Hi. I am a 54 year old woman who developed blood clots a couple of years ago due to being on oral birth control for heavy periods. I did a six month course of Coumadin, and, was tested and found to be genetically pre-disposed to developing blood clots, although I had never experienced any previously in my life.

My question is...now that I'm off the Coumadin, I've been enjoying leafy green vegetables, especially spinach, and I wonder if that is okay, or if I really need to scale back my consumption of these veggies? (I LOVE spinach, BTW)

Thanks.
