5. Following a healthy diet
Beyond including the Ayurveda in your overall diet, most people could also make a few alterations to their diet to prevent deep vein thrombosis from occurring. Foods that can prevent deep vein thrombosis include foods that are high in Vitamin E, which also acts as a blood thinner on its own; alcohol is also known as a potent blood thinner, and can be useful if in moderation – say, a glass of wine with dinner.
Certain foods should be avoided, especially if you are already taking anticoagulant drugs like aspirin or warfarin. Foods high in Vitamin K should generally be avoided if you are taking anticoagulant drugs – this includes spinach, chard, sprouts, kale; see a pattern there?
Leafy, green fruits and vegetables should generally be avoided on what’s known as the Warfarin diet. (Also remember that the Warfarin diet applies not only to Warfarin but to other drugs as well – this is something you might want to check with your pharmacist, dietician or doctor beforehand.
