Lowering platelet level with food

Posted by panamsandy @panamsandy, May 21, 2025

Is there a way of lowering platelet levels with food? I've been reading that certain foods can help. Cucumber, radish, cherries, blueberies, etc. and supplements like Ginko Biloba and Ginsing. I also read that red wine and dark chocolate help (I hope that one is true!! LOL)

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Blood Cancers & Disorders Support Group.

@goodcheers As it turned out, the cranberry juice was useless in reducing platelet count, contrary to what I had read about it. So, I discontinued it and have returned to Hydroxyurea.

You're a hero to share your findings that cranberry juice isn't a fix, garyr433.

Thank you.
