1:35 Summary 

Today we’re going to talk about the vegetables you can eat when on Warfarin or Coumadin. This medication is a blood thinner. It basically blocks vitamin K in the body and helps prevent clots. When you’re on this medication, typically, they will tell you not to consume certain vegetables—especially leafy greens.

The problem is that you really need vegetables for the nutrients. I believe a person needs about 7 to 10 cups of vegetables every day. But, if you can’t do salads, there are still some fantastic alternatives. 

Vegetables you may be able to consume when on Warfarin or Coumadin:
• Tomato
• Cucumber
• Artichoke
• Zucchini
• Celery
• Red cabbage
• Okra
• Red pepper
• Turnips
• Beets
• Onions
• Pumpkin
• Squash
• Eggplant
• Mushrooms
• Carrot
• Cauliflower

These are great vegetables that are low in vitamin K, that you may want to start consuming a lot of.
