I found that alcohol thins out blood, and that's generally a good thing (unless you're bleeding). So along with quitting alcohol you need to quit the good effects of it as well.
It's hard to manage your blood thickness when you're in over your head, but not managing it leaves you confused as brain circulation is slightly impaired
This is actually a thing for some people, and if that's you, then you absolutely need to see a doctor and describe what's happening. It may be that you over-absorb iron. Someone close to me had this condition and described it as "thick blood". Undiagnosed hemochromatosis
He regularly gave blood, which helped shed the iron from his body, but at some point he stopped, and it contributed to a severe cognitive decline. He drank too much, too, which didn't help.
If you or someone you know has "thick blood", go to a doctor. Suggest they check for hemochromatosis
THIS. Hemochromatosis is rare but imminently treatable. And among the few, if not the only disease for which the oldest treatment (bloodletting) remains among the most viable treatments today.
Generally unless your at risk of either bleeding or thrombosis/embolism then don’t worry too much about your blood thickness (correct word is coagulability rather than viscosity). It tends to balance and stay In a narrow range in fit and well individuals. I’ve never heard of it impacting on cognition.
Wouldn't children's dosage of aspirin be more manageable? IIRC some older people are recommended to eat that daily (something like 1/4 adult dosage of aspirine).
