Just diagnosed with ET. Learning about the specific foods that supposedly help lower the platelet count. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. It's a little overwhelming at first. Grateful for these conversations.

The key word is "supposedly"!

While eating a healthy diet is always wise, there is no scientific basis that any food or supplement lowers the platelet count.

Please see nohrt4me's excellent comment above.
