1. Turmeric – A Golden Anti-Clotting Ally
Turmeric contains curcumin, a compound with powerful anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant properties.
Add it to warm teas, curries, or rice dishes—but consult your doctor if you’re already taking blood thinners.
2. Garlic – Subtle Yet Powerful
Garlic helps lower blood pressure and may reduce clot formation.
Use it raw or cooked in everything from salad dressings to sautés.
3. Cayenne Pepper – Spice with Circulatory Perks
Cayenne contains salicylates—natural blood-thinning compounds similar to aspirin.
A dash in your soups or roasted veggies not only brings heat but may support heart health.
4. Ginger – More Than a Nausea Remedy
In addition to calming the stomach, ginger inhibits platelet aggregation, helping reduce clot risk.
Grate fresh ginger into meals or brew it as a tea.
5. Chinese Cinnamon – Sweet and Potent
This aromatic spice contains coumarin, a natural anticoagulant.
Sprinkle a little in coffee, oatmeal, or baked goods—but use in moderation, as too much may affect liver function.
6. Ginkgo Biloba – Brain and Blood Flow Booster
Often used as a memory supplement, ginkgo may help improve circulation and reduce clot formation.
Speak with your doctor before trying it, especially if you’re older or on medication.
