Black Tea - Are there interactions with herbs and supplements?
From the same information:
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/d...tural/997.html
"Herbs and supplements that might slow blood clotting
Black tea might slow blood clotting. Using it along with other herbs and supplements that might also slow blood clotting could increase the risk of bruising and bleeding in some people. Some of these herbs include angelica, clove, danshen, garlic, ginger, ginkgo, Panax ginseng, and others."
So if you have problems with your platelets/blood clotting you have to be aware that there is a certain danger for bruising and bleeding.
For a list of drugs, food supplements and herbs you should consider to avoid in case of platelet problems see:

Thanks Birgitta for the link.
Kind regards
