Hi
Anyone has experience on using protein shakes as a supplement while on blood thinners?

    I had my family make me smoothies with protein powder when I was bedridden for a pelvic fracture and having Lovenox injections. Nothing bad happened, haha. If you're taking another blood thinner it might be different, but I don't see why not. It's just regular protein, albeit a concentrated source.
