Vitamin E
Question: Is it true that Vitamin E can cause a brain hemorrhage stroke?
I am 81 years old and have Atrial Fib. I am currently taking Coumadin. My mother died of
a stroke and I was wondering if I may safely take 400 mg of
Vitamin E, or even more?
Answer: So far doesn’t seem to. Fish oil and aspirin do, though. Vitamin E may also, but there is much less information available, and if so it is minimal.
