@jodyjazz Have you seen anything about using ginger to control platelet count? I'm especially interested in using ginger oil on my face to both protect from the sun and to remove rashes.

@garyr443 Not specifically to control platelet count, although there may be that possibility. I'm going to try using unsweetened cranberry juice for that purpose and I'll see how it goes. The ginger I'll be using is more for dental health (hence the chewable ginger) and for skin care (hence the ginger oil). So, one thing I'll be looking at is whether the ginger oil can get rid of my facial rashes. I'll let you know how that goes. If it works, beyond that, I expect it may smooth a few wrinkles and make me look more like fifty than sixty (which is how old some people now think I am, despite my 74th birthday coming up in October).

Have not heard of Ginger for that purpose. Prob your best sheild if sunscreen for face and a wide brimmed hat. I hate to say this cause I hate suncreen and do not look good in a hat. But i don't look good in red face either:-
