Instructions

• 1

  Avoid sugars, saturated fats, processed foods, carbonated beverages and grains. These refined foods contain chemicals and fats that are causing your platelet levels to fall and are the main contributors to your blood disorder.

• 2

  Consume high amounts of healthy foods, specifically organic and fresh foods. Organic and fresh foods help stimulate internal mechanisms in the body that will naturally increase your platelet count. Make sure to thoroughly wash all of your fresh foods before consumption. The parasites and viruses that are contained in raw and dirty foods are known contributors to low platelet counts.

• 3

  Take a multi-vitamin supplement each day. Multi-vitamins will help you to fight diseases that may also be contributing to your low platelet levels. Cod liver and fish oil tablets are also helpful in strengthening the immune system, improving circulation, increasing good cholesterol levels and reducing internal inflammation.

• 4

  Consume large amounts of fruits and vegetables. Tomatoes and berries are loaded with minerals that provide the body with antioxidant qualities while leafy vegetables increase hemoglobin levels in the blood which attack the problem of low platelet levels in the early stages. Fruits and vegetables also contribute to an overall healthier physique and eliminate the refined fats mentioned in Step 1.
