FAQs Natural Therapies: NOACs vs Natural Blood Thinners?
“Have there been any tests comparing natural blood thinners to the new anticoagulants (NOACs) in terms of efficacy and speed of onset?”
Comparison testing is unlikely. It’s highly improbable that pharmaceutical companies and the FDA will one day pay for unbiased tests comparing their products to natural blood thinners. They have everything to lose and nothing to gain. Clinical trials are expensive, so it’s unlikely any others (e.g. the nutritional supplements industry) will have a financial incentive to pursue it either.
