If she's on blood thinners of any type, take a look at the spinach idea.
Google coumadin and vitamin K to find the foods with the most vitamin K in
them, which, in conjunction of some foods can increase the bleeding rate at
up to 5 times.

Good catch, Steve. We were aware of that, she is on coumadin. The
doc said a little spinach is OK, the main thing is to be consistent.
BTW, vitamin K aids clotting rather than impeding it. More at

She had an INR check this morning. It was right on target.
