Blood thinners and artificial heart valve
I have a question regarding peptide use for my husband. He has an artificial heart valve and is on blood thinners since the age of 10 (strep had a false negative and it attacked his heart valve and knee and was flown to OHSU the next day) , but otherwise he is very healthy. He exercises regularly, maintains a healthy body weight and body fat percentage, and is generally in good condition. We eat clean 85% and mostly organic just too much beer:) His back goes out occasionally, and I was wondering if there are any contraindications or concerns with using BPC-157 and TB-500 in someone with his medical history. The dosing I was considering would be: • BPC-157: 500-1,000 mcg daily• TB-500: 500-1,000 mcg daily Given his artificial heart valve and anticoagulation therapy, are there any known risks, interactions, or reasons these peptides would not be appropriate? Would any additional monitoring be recommended? We are careful and educated on supplements such as Turmeric, omegas, K2 and others but if he is consistent can usually incorporate them somewhat but any other supplements we should be mindful of?
