Dr. Dhand, is there such a diet that naturally thins the blood?

[@finnualaanderson9864]

Thank you for doing this very informative video. Dr Dhand could you please tell us a little about the reversal of anticoagulant therapy should a patient suffer a bleed? Is it true that Warfarin can be reversed by VitK but the newer oral anticoagulants can not?

Is there any info WHY the rates of this are increasing? Despite the fact I've been eating a healthy whole food plant based diet and have reversed a lot of chronic ailments, I ended up in the ER with A-fib! in just in the last few years in my small circle, my brother, myself, my son, a close friend, and a cousin have all been diagnosed with episodes, which really troubles me as to WHY?

If Dr. Suneel Dhand was prescribed blood thinning medicine I would recommend him to take Turmeric (in powder form) instead! It is guaranteed to thin the blood! I myself removed all blood thinners 8 years ago, without consulting my doctor and my blood is very thin! This cannot Dr. Suneel Dhand recommend because then he will be banned from KZbin! Turmeric is not something the criminal drug companies make any money from so they would NEVER do a serious study on Turmeric! It's the same with beetroot juice, which is guaranteed to lower blood pressure!

My husband had a heart attack 6 weeks ago. They placed a stent and immediately put him on blood thinners. 3 days out of the hospital his pressure dives dramatically, he looses consciousness. Turned out he had stomach ulcers that were bleeding for three days. The blood loss caused a 2nd heart event. After a transfusion and 2 additional weeks in the hospital he's alive.

My dad had a mild stroke over a year ago. In hospital they gave him Eliquis and a 30 day supply, plus a prescription for after the 30 days. I took him to have it filled and it was going to be $800.00 per month. Needless to say he can't afford it. He is 86 years old and we along with his doctor opted to not take a blood thinner other that low dose aspirin. The price of new pharmaceuticals is off the charts. 😡

[@puggirl415]

That is one reason why my partner who is on blood thinners due to Deep Vein Thrombosis continues to take warfarin. It is incredibly affordable. He doesn't want to go on the more expensive drug and then find that he can't get it for affordability reasons. I'm surprised they did not allow him to take the warfarin for a short time but perhaps warfarin has a longer period of time before it starts working or perhaps they didn't want to have him coming in for testing every 2-4 weeks.

What can possibly go wrong?

Man it does suck to get damaged, and need to heal up. And then to find out the people around you do not subscribe to helping somebody when theyre down. Yeah they dont have time, & they cant afford, and they hav a life to live, etc. For shame I say! When they are really a hiccup or two away from being just as physically phucked up as this person that now needs their help more than ever... What happened to the rest of your family/team/whatever picking up the slack when one of ya's down? I thought thats what we do! But naw, now (and esp.they hav ratcheted it up the last couple decades), when somebody falls ill or gets damaged, house of cards crumbles n blows away, etc., people hav now been trained and conditioned to...not to reach in their pocket or their time or reserves n pitch in, not to help their brother or sister get their face up off the ground! Oh no! They will look right at you like ur a monster from another planet. Will act like theyre listening to you but really theyre not hearing a word. They will then whisper to eachother(while one is eating something, the other, well i dunno how to spell the slurp noise from drinking to the bottom of something, the other one yeap, straw noise..) Not offer a piece of sandwhich, something to drink.. Watching like its some reality show, the one says omg or something, then another says somebody should call somebody, n another says yeah, their trained n equipped, yeah, oh yes I will call somebody! Then they show up, haul ya off n now u belong to the state! We aint supposed to take care of our people? Just give them to the state? Really? Billy Strings Bless his angel heart, in his song "Secrets," he says ,"...cause we're all a dollar short n every one of us is runnin out of track!" I am sure that these really will be referred to as The Darkest Dark Ages! Cuz next thing ya know theres somebody that wants to... "HELP you" Yeah then they possess you. And get paid from the state. Plus whateva $ u were supposed to get. What a fkn nightmare. Cuz if u do get better enough, they aint gonna let their paycheck escape. Dammit i"m sorry folks , i prolbly need an egg sandwhich or something. It just really sucks to find out this much about human beings i wish i never had to find it out how shitty some people can be when youre hanging by s thread. I never dreamed i'd hear them be distraught,, not happy about me getting better! I pray mister that you get some big miracles! I will put you in my prayers! Plz pray for me too! And my boyfriends brother. Had strokes but he still stands a good chance if they just would let him heal the fk up a little.. I swear it looks like they trying to expedite his departure!

Family member had a stroke a year ago; otherwise very, very healthy before then and since then. Took meds as prescribed by doctor for a while. Did not like the idea of having 'drug' dependence so self-weaned after just a few months. Now taking only supplements and seemingly perfect health has returned with no side effects whatsoever. We all feel like God healed him and that the stroke was due to multiple stresses that came along almost simultaneously. It is possible that a diet change for you or supplements or some other type of care as directed by a holistic doctor will be all that you need. Consider this possibility before taking any drastic measures one way or the other.

Hello Dr we are in Thailand my husband had a heart attack ( on the table after severe indigestion all day) about 10 yrs ago, no damage and no restrictions afterwards. The usual meds for 4-6 months then we requested no more as he was unable to function. The statins were the worse. The Dr agreed. ( this was in San Diego) then Last yr a a check up here in Thailand had the echo done and nothing serious there. Yet the cardiologist we saw prescribed 4 different meds and a very strong blood thinner. My husband and I play singles tennis eat 85% whole food diet stretch regularly etc. BP is good though at that time is was a bit high 134/70 it is usually 128/70. We were shocked at the load of drugs given. We refused them and never went back. It was one of the most prestigious government hospitals here in Bangkok.

My dad had Afib and was on Coumadin. Later on, he developed a brain abscess which was misdiagnosed as a stroke. The double edge sword here is they needed to remove the abscess but in order to do surgery, they had to thicken his blood. Can you see where we're headed here? The surgery was a success but 2 weeks later, he had a brainstem stroke and was paralyzed from the neck down with a feeding tube. Clots of course formed when they stopped the blood thinner for surgery. He passed 6 weeks later. In his case, it was a blessing because, I know wouldn't have wanted to live years like that. He was 79.

I’m 63 now and I certainly will be taking the blood thinners ,but I will see if I get more episodes . Both parents were on warfarin and they never had ablation . Consider myself lucky to have the new blood thinners .

[@katmeup7]

I had an initial episode of afib with RVR and thought I was dying when I was 63. Turned out my kidneys were throwing off potassium and magnesium for no apparent reason. Once that was corrected, I would only have an episode occasionally (like, 2x/yr) after exercise. I could always get it to stop with hydration and more K and Mg. I was very symptomatic, so I know when I’m in it plus wear an Apple Watch. My cardiologist wanted to put me on Eliquist. I refused. He fired me. Ten years later, I haven’t had an episode in at least three years. For me, the risks of a blood thinner outweighed the benefit.

[@franklincornelius9373]

If you have had a stroke, like I did 2 years ago and you don't take one of the newer blood thinners like Eloquis, I suggest you establish an exercise routine that includes HIT so you can build heart strength.

But, I don't skip healthy eating and cook my own food ( don't eat in restaurants) and don't skip my daily exercise. Of course I am still young, 82 and don't have many friends, their all dead.

There seem to be many other factors and illnesses as well as deficiencies that produce AFib. Two doctors have tried to pressure me into using the blood thinners. Eventually I gave in but within a month I was convinced that it was making me very ill. It took over another month for the drugs to clear out of my body. I have explained to them that the possibility that I have my family disease ( a rare form of pernicious anemia) that produces not only the AFib , but also the lack of feeling firstly in extremities and then a complete take over of the body and brain. I cannot get the diagnosis treatment I need because the doctors are so obsessed with stroke. Although my Grandfather and Mother both died eventually from the disease and I have several cousins with it, no one has had strokes. My Mother came to live with us when we moved from England (where she was treated successfully for years) but the doctors refused to believe her English doctors diagnosis and treatment and gave her only a panacea because obviously they thought her obsessive. My father tried to defend her but she did not get the correct medication. I am still angry and I hope to move to Europe where I may get proper treatment before it is too late.

I had it. Found out the cause in myself: Immune system dysfunction. I had to cut many foods from my diet and it went away completely. Also taking Vit D3, K2, Mg, Zn daily on top of an antihistamine (cetirizine hydrochloride - 10mg). This all helps a ton. It's given me my life back. EDIT: P.S. I suffered several mini-strokes, one of which made me completely lose hearing in my right ear for several weeks. It never went fully back to normal. NHS didn't help at all. They misdiagnosed my immune system dysfunction for years.

[@puggirl415]

So you took K2 to heal this? I'm interested because K2 is such an important nutrient but the doctors warn against vitamin K if you are on blood thinners. The thing is they never seem to differentiate between K1 and K2. I think K1 is dangerous and can cause clotting but I think K2 may not be. I've never found anyone to confirm this but K2 helps with calcium distribution not blood clotting as far as I know. I'd love to know why you took K2 to heal from Afib. I read that it was an immune system dysfunction. Were you worried about the K2 causing clotting while you took it to heal yourself?

[@PrincipalAudio]

​@@puggirl415 I think both improve the action of clotting, but the true cause of clotting needs to be identified and addressed. In my case, the clotting was caused by poor circulation, caused by irregular heartbeats, caused by a dysfunctional immune system (v*ccine damage). As soon as I cut foods that were bad for me, the irregular heartbeats went away, meaning that the risk of clotting causing strokes also went away. Vitamin K (in K1 or K2) won't be an issue so long as you cure the root cause of the clot risk. In my case, the Vitmain D3 helped calm my immune system by boosting my 25(OH)D levels. The daily anti-histamine (cetirizine) also help against any potentially allergic reactions, and they don't seem to cause any side-effects in me. Not recommended unless anyone has an immune system disorder, though. The reason I take K2 is because I am taking higher dose D3 (13,000 IU). K2 is a necessary co-factor in helping transport calcium away from soft tissues, which prevents calcification of arteries. It's one of those paradoxes. K2 = enhances blood clotting, but K2 also prevents arterial plaquing with calcium deposits to a certain degree. So do you take it to prevent arterial plaquing at the cost of increasing blood clotting risk? Or do you avoid it and risk arterial plaque buildup due to calcium deposits not being transported away from soft tissues? That's something you have to decide yourself (with the advice of a medical professional). :)

My dad was just diagnosed with afib. He doesn’t want to take blood thinners due to his fears associated with having a brain aneurysm and also a TAA. Both are monitored regularly. We had a family friend die from a brain hemorrhage a year ago. She was on warfarin for afib.

[@braveheartsbeardstudios]

Thank you for this discussion. I have had two documented ischemic strokes in this last year at age 58, and multiple hypo-dense (less dense) brain areas which may be signs of other unnoticed strokes. Neurologist has been looking, but no test has found atrial fibulation. But going on a Whole Foods plant based diet has recovered most of the functions I lost, likely due to its well documented artery clearing effects. Also I had undiagnosed severe sleep apnea (43 events per hour) which can cause strokes by a number of mechanisms, but my neurologist never thought to look for this. Successful cpap use has me down to one event per hour. Finally a spinal tap found a cause of inflammation throughout my body from a bacteria that can cause vascular swelling in the brain and cause ischemic strokes, so I submitted to hospitalization for two weeks of getting hit with IV penicillin 6 times a day. Again my neurologist didn’t think to look for that either, and neither did my primary care doctor. Both the apnea screening and the investigation into the inflammation were found by an old school doctor in his 70’s who took an interest in tracking things down.

I have a fib, but fortunately only on Rare occasions. I'm 77 and an internist but have good BP. I calculate my CHADS2 score at 1 because of my age. NNT to stop a major stroke is 50+. I ski and bicycle too fast. I think the medical evidence supports my decision for skip the anticoagulants. (TRENDS study among others) Should I develop permanent a fib I might have to do something but I would choose ablation + Watchman procedure so I could continue an active life free of the very real bleeding caused by all anticoaagulants. Eliquis and Xarelto are outrageously priced. Why? Because Big Pharma has paid doctors, especially cardiologists, enormous ammounts to promote it over Coumadin. Coumadin is just as safe and 1/100th the cost. They are equally safe and effective but Big Pharma can trot out a couple of studies paid to promote their drugs. There are no cost benefit studies to support this because they know they'd lose.

I reduced the frequency of my proximal AFib by adding salt to my meals and to my vegetable juice three times a day. I use Himalayan pink salt about half to three-quarters tsp a day. Also keeping hydrated throughout the day and taking a Magnesium-Potassium supplement (Red Seal Magnesium brand or Blackmores PPMP). The only "medicine" I take for it is Hawthorne herb (Medi Herb brand from Australia is the best). I have only had one paroxysmal AFib episode this year that lasted for 20 hours then reverted, I also have a procedure that I do when i get the AFib so I end it quickly. If I go to hospital it takes a lot longer to revert, so I dont go there any more, just stay in bed. I am 72.
