Hi Kareem, I found these articles for you.
The first is regarding foods which can help increase your platelets; Vitamin C in citrus fruits being one of them.

Also, an article from the National Institute of Health regarding, “Nutritional zinc increases platelet reactivity”
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1951315/
Zinc is an important element in our diets and usually we consume enough daily for cellular activity. Taking too much as a supplement can have some unpleasant side effects.

Just to give you a little more information on zinc, this article was informative.

Hi,

My husband recently had his CBC testing done and found out that his platelet count is 120000. His platelets have been in the range of 130000-120000 since 2022. He doesn't have any other symptoms. He has scheduled an appointment with Hematologist. He also had covid in June 2022. Do you think his platelet count can go up with supplements?
