Tip for Low Platelets - If you have low platelets, you can increase your platelet count naturally by eating certain foods like papaya. Some patients who were in treatment for cancer and were waiting for a platelet transfusion have confirmed that eating fresh papaya increased their platelet count enough to avoid the platelet transfusion. This doesn’t mean it will happen for you, but is worth trying if your medical team agrees. Or consider adding it to your diet regularly if your platelet count tends to be low, and your medical provider agrees.
