New to Vegan...currently mostly veggie

[Toniixo]

Hi folks.

I am looking for ways to incorperate the vegan diet into my lifestyle. I have over the years become more and more veggie, cutting out meat, but still eating shellfish. I have found the transition rather difficult, as I am on Wwarfarin (blood thinner). This medication, which keeps me from having strokes/blood clots, means i have to be careful with what I eat. Anything with high levels of vitimin K in are a big no go...So I was hoping to find some idea's and recipie's to try, before I commit to going fully vegan....

Hope I can find some useful stuff on here, and some support!

Cheers!

Toniixo.

Hello Toniixo!

Welcome to the forums

Happy to hear you're thinking of making the switch, try posting in the this section? I'm sure somebody will be able to help

I don't think you'll have an issue with plants with vitamin K unless you consume a stupid amount of them? Though I'm no doctor or adviser sorry!
