Supplements That Can Increase Bruising
Interestingly, some supplements have the opposite effect and may worsen bruising by thinning the blood. These include:
-
Ginkgo, ginseng, ginger, and garlic
-
Omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil)
-
Vitamin E
-
Saw palmetto
If you notice more bruising after starting a new supplement, don’t stop on your own—talk with your doctor first.
