I take warfarin every day due to a left leg DVT. I follow my doctor's instructions: no green veggies, etc. Can I safely substitute eggs for Eggbeaters and how often can I eat this product?
Eggs are not a problem for those who are taking Coumadin® (warfarin). They have no Vitamin K and should not interact with your medication. Likewise, the USDA database reports that there is essentially no Vitamin K in liquid egg substitute like Egg Beaters. Both of these should be safe.
