Hey there. Yes you have to cut out pasta and rice and when you do have Pasta it needs to be whole grain and a very small amount. Protein is good and my hubby has been on coumadin 30 years. You can eat green leafy, the coumadin can be adjusted. You just need to eat the same things all of the time so it stays regular. So start with what you will do, get a blood test after 2 weeks and adjust as ordered. Keep eating same things. Candy, please don't kick me okay? WALKING is very good. Yeah, I am hiding under the bed, can't find me.
