I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your page on Coumadin and diet. I've been on Coumadin for 6 months so far and your site has given me all the info I need to taking care of myself while on this drug. My own doctor didn't give me a fraction of the info you have. In fact, I printed out the full list of nutrition facts and he now gives it to his patients.
Thanks so much for your nice words. We get a lot of letters like yours and it's this kind of feedback that keeps us working so hard.
Here are some links so that others can do the same:
Brief: A short list of commonly-used foods with their relative Vitamin K levels (Low, Medium, High)
Medium: A much longer list of foods, with their relative Vitamin K levels (Low, Medium, High)
Extensive: The same longer list as the Medium document, but with exact levels of Vitamin K in mcgs.
These documents are in PDF Format.
Thanks for writing.
