Aspirin isn't officially a blood thinner .It is a consequence of a painkiller. He had a half aspirin tablet every two days and warfrin every day. But when I was going to put him on Cod Liver Oils he asked the doctor and the doctor said no as oils thin the blood. People on Warfrin are advised to reduce not exclude broccoli and asparagus intake too.
