Tailor it: if you take the blood thinner warfarin (Coumadin).
This drug prevents dangerous blood clots by blocking the action of vitamin K, which is needed to make clot-building compounds in the blood—but too much K in your diet can overwhelm your protection. The nutrient is especially abundant in dark green, leafy vegetables such as spinach, Swiss chard, and kale, so don't have more than one serving of any of these in a day.

So, based on the evidence, and all the excellent information,

Tonight I simmered a large batch with organic free-range chicken broth. They tasted okay, I would've preferred more salt, but I was trying the lower-sodium option for health purposes. You can find many tasty recipe's all over the Internet for Kale. If you have the ability, I'd highly recommend getting Organic Kale instead of regular! You can achieve top absorption of the benefits by doing so. *research for yourself! that's a whole 'nother blog! lol ;)
