About this title

Synopsis

Patients on COUMADIN have always had to pay attention to the Vitamin K content in their foods. "The COUMADIN Cookbook" provides guidelines for stabilizing daily Vitamin K intake to patients on COUMADIN. In addition to clear directions for preparing a variety of tasty dishes, each recipe in the book gives the number of micrograms of Vitamin K contained per serving. This cookbook is written with the viewpoint of the patient in mind. With the use of the cookbook, it should be easier for the patient to eat a wide variety of healthy foods AND consume roughly the same amount of vitamin K each day. The "INTRODUCTION" reviews several important facts regarding COUMADIN and vitamin K. In the section "USEFUL DIETARY TIPS", the patient is provided with general information on how to make their intake of Vitamin K more constant. The Coumadin Cook Book lists around 200 foods low in Vitamin K per serving. Over 300 tasty recipes with known Vitamin K content per serving are provided. These include SALADS and VEGETABLES. Every food group is represented in the recipes.
