    Dr. Mehmet Oz answered:
    In general, both patients and clinicians should be cautious about using any natural products with blood-thinning drugs like warfarin, which is widely known to be sensitive to vitamin K intake. Any blood-thinning drug may potentially interact with any herb or supplement with anticoagulant properties, such as vitamin E, fish oil, or omega-3 fatty acids.
