So you're an idiot. Vitamin E has never, will never, cause excess
bleeding, but Warfarin (coumadin) will. Even if the combination of
natural and synthetic blood thinners (so-called) results in abnormally
reduced clotting, it's irrational to lay the blame on essential
nutrients that perform this function with zero risk. Lay the blame
where it belongs -- on the drug the body has no mean for controlling.
It's insane to take prescribed coumadin over fibrinogen-reducing
nutrients which work better and without risk. My uncle died from
internal bleeding while taking coumadin despite not taking supplements.
Many have. The risk of death goes UP with reduced nutrient intake, UP
with pharmaceutical drug use, and UP with stupidity.
