People who are worried about their risk of blood clots would do well to discuss this with their health care professional. For those with moderately increased risk of such events it is best to consider anti embolism stockings, abstinence from smoking, avoidance of alcohol (it “dries you out”), getting up and around, and leg exercises when on long trips. I had a European car once that used to flash a timer every two hours to remind the driver to get out and walk around.
