It would be the opposite. Beets have vitamin K which helps thicken the blood. However one source here on the internet said beets don't have enough to make any effect on the blood/warfarin...however, beet GREENS have a lot more vitamin K and will throw off the effect of blood thinners.

If you're going to have surgery, eat vitamin K things. Or they will give it to you in an inter venous.

I am not a doctor. Just reporting what I've observed via my father's treatments.

Are ace inhibitors blood thinners?

No, ACE inhibitors are not blood thinners. They are a class of medications that help relax blood vessels by inhibiting the enzyme that produces angiotensin II, which can lead to lower blood pressure. Blood thinners, on the other hand, are medications that prevent blood clots from forming. While both types of medications may be used in cardiovascular treatment, they serve different purposes.


Can you get a blood clot while on blood thinners?

Yes, it is still possible to get a blood clot while on blood thinners, although these medications significantly reduce the risk. Blood thinners work by preventing new clots from forming and stopping existing clots from getting larger, but they do not eliminate the risk entirely. Factors such as dosage, adherence to the medication regimen, and individual health conditions can influence the effectiveness of blood thinners. Regular monitoring and consultation with a healthcare provider are essential to ensure optimal management.
