For those considering a natural blood thinner

[foxytaur (imported)]

Think no more than consuming organic "Natto". A japanese fermented soybean that is way more potent at naturally bloodthinning compared to artificial pharaceutical bloodthinners without the severe side-effects.

Wiki-How describes a way to derive aspirin from willow tree bark if you're lost in the woods. Is aspirin somehow "unnatural"?

[foxytaur (imported)]

aspirin is very old and yet natural. But care must be considered to find a source where it's not refined with other impurities.

I really don't trust most pharmaceuticals. (I'll leave that as another topic for another day)

Deriving aspirin from the Willow bark tree produces more salicylic-acid and some people are sensitive to this compound that may cause stomach ulcers.

But is the pellet with the poison in the vessel with the pestle? Or is the chalice from the palace the brew that is true? :p

It's fine Carrie, I made this thread to point out some natural blood thinners and practices that can help fight against blood clots. Especially those going or will be going on hrt in future.

I'm one full month so far being on a nearly complete vegan diet(with the occasional but rare fish baked in virgin cocnut oil with coldpressed virgin olive oil from time to time)

but I fell better already. Yes all milk products, beef, chicken and pork completely removed from my diet.

I rely on heavy list of wild and common vegetables fruits, berries. vegan protein(70 cruciferous veggies with non essential amino acids) and berry supplement mix.(over 40, the main one being goji berries)

No grains except hemp, quinoa(has all of the essential amino acids), and brown rice.

In future will consider buy full dead on organic produce and definetly when I start living on my own in my 30's to grow my own farm.

The irony is my great gran dad was a banana farmer.

Have you actually added Natto to your diet? We have a local producer of excellent organic natto, as well as a dozen frozen Japanese brands in the supermarkets. My wife has natto and brown rice for breakfast two or three times per week.

I, on the other hand, try to be in another room when she does. While I like nearly all fermented foods, natto is beyond the pale unless I'm trapped in a Japanese situation where I have no polite choice. Even in Japan, though, there are a great many who cannot stand it. That I will eat it on occasion has helped my entry into some social situations....

The smell makes Limburger cheese seem almost like a bouquet of flowers. The texture is terminally slimy.

[foxytaur (imported)]

Not yet Jesus, I will though for sure. It's on my list of future items definetly !!!!!!(I'm hoping it won't gag me)

When I read about natto I was stunned though

NB = I did read about natto stinking like limburger cheese lol.Thanks for the forewarning

Gonna have to brush my teeth and tongue afterwards P.

I'll eat anything that'll cut my risk for developing thrombosis, stroke or pulmonary embolism

when it's my turn to go on hrt.
