Does vitamin D prevent formation of blood clots?
A venous thrombosis is a blood clot that forms within a vein. A classical venous thrombosis is in a deep vein thrombosis, usually deep in a vein in the leg. These can break off, go to the lungs, and become a life-threatening pulmonary embolism. Complications of pulmonary embolism include coughing up blood, heart failure or shock, heart palpitations, pulmonary hypertension, severe breathing difficulty, severe bleeding (usually a complication of blood thinner treatment), and sudden death.Does vitamin D prevent formation of blood clots?
