SCS - Can I take ReActivate with my blood thinning medication?

While ReActivate has 100% organic and Non-GMO + highly bioavailable ingredients, and is generally considered to be safe for healthy adults, if you have a medical condition or take medications you should always check with your personal physician to make sure a supplement is 100% safe for you. 

ReActivate contains turmeric and there are controversial opinions in regards to a possible interaction with Turmeric and blood thinners. 

Here is the research:

Curcumin (the active component of turmeric) produces anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet effects [20, 24, 26]. In vitro experiments have demonstrated that the antiplatelet effect of curcumin/turmeric is due to inhibition of arachidonic acid metabolism and TXA2 synthesis [20, 26, 27, 46]. However, there are no reports regarding the effect of the compound on blood clotting/bleeding. Similarly, there are neither experimental nor clinical data indicating interactions between turmeric and antiplatelet drugs, such as aspirin and other NSAIDs. The risk for abnormal bleeding cannot, however, be ruled out with the use of turmeric, especially in the presence of blood-thinning drugs under certain circumstances, such as increased susceptibility of consumers and the use of large doses. Assuming these possibilities, caution needs to be applied when curcumin or turmeric is used either alone or in combination with antiplatelet medications.
