Hello,

There are important anti-coagulation medicine and diet considerations. When taking anticoagulants, it may be recommended to keep vitamin-K intake consistent on a daily basis. Avoid sudden changes in the intake of foods and vitamins containing vitamin-K. The examples of foods and beverages high in vitamin-K include: Beef liver, broccoli, kale, lentils, lettuce, spinach, soybean oil, turnip greens, Brussel sprouts, cabbage, cheese, collard green, green tea.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Heang Chan Raksmey, General & Family Physician
