Does anyone know if I’m allowed to use garlic and apple cider vinegar while taking low dose aspirin? I use both often and was not told to avoid anything..just wondering where they are all blood thinners?
 
Ask a pharmacist and also have a look on the information leaflet that should come with the aspirin.

Applies to: Aspirin Low Strength (aspirin) and garlic

Talk to your doctor before using garlic together with aspirin. Garlic products have been reported to cause bleeding in rare cases, and taking it with other medications that can also cause bleeding such as aspirin may increase that risk. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience any unusual bleeding or bruising, or have other signs and symptoms of bleeding such as dizziness; lightheadedness; red or black, tarry stools; coughing up or vomiting fresh or dried blood that looks like coffee grounds; severe headache; and weakness. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor."

I should think the same may apply to ACV.
