Many Ask What Does Low Platelet Count Mean For Me?

Platelets - What Are They?
Platelets are the component in your blood that controls clotting. Without them you would leak blood through  blood vessels and pass away. On the other hand we possess platelets and at whatever time there is a leaky vessel they assemble next to the location and help repairs by means of causing the blood to clot within that area and bring to an end to the hemorrhage.

Looking at the bigger picture they are also responsible for your blood to clot when you suffer a scratch or receive a serious cut. This is discernible in the appearance of a scab that protects your harmed area until the healing processes can be completed.

OK So What Does Low Platelet Count Mean?
Low platelet count means your number of platelets circulating in your blood are less then optimum healthy levels. The medically accepted normal healthy range is 145,000 - 450,000 platelets per micro-liter of blood. Anything beneath 145k (145,000) is considered low. Yet it is not regarded as unsafe or life threatening until a low platelet count goes less than 30k. Usually medical doctors won't get anxious until the figures move still lower, less than 10k.

Briefly, low platelet count means that your body is not building platelets as quick as they are being needed. For the majority this is a short-lived issue and it is common to witness platelet counts come back to normal amounts. This is since scores of things can lower platelets such as illness, pregnancy, eating habits, tension, medications and so on. When such circumstances no longer exist platelets will usually bounce back. This is why medical professionals do not get to nervous unless the platelet count gets extremely low and stays there permanently. Your body is spectacular and as soon as needed can in fact put platelet production on "overdrive" to defeat these lows after the offending problem is resolved.

Your platelets don't have to remain low, even if your doctor is not all that concerned. You can do things in the privacy of your own home to increase platelets naturally. I recommend reading "Conquer Low Platelets" to learn the tips, secrets and easy methods used by Dr. Louis Cruz to successfully treat his clients.

Why Don't You Increase Platelets Naturally?

I have noticed a few say that if you're thinking that it is possible to Increase Platelets Naturally you're foolish. If your physician is unable to correct your low platelets you surely are not going to be able to with a few home remedies.

To me this line of reasoning confirms how brainwashed we are by western societies. Due to medical advancements in the last hundred years plus the TV and film dramas of idolizing doctors most have put medical experts on a god-like pedestal. But the last time I checked you'll still find  millions of sick people.

Many times, when trying to find a doctor I am informed that physician so-and-so doesn't have any room for more patients. What is going on? Don't medical professionals cure anybody anymore? Perhaps I'm not being reasonable but it just appears to be some kind of revolving door how the medical profession operates these days.

Of course the public basically doesn't look after their health either. Poor lifestyles, like working long hours, less sleep, over eating and eating junk food, plus vices like smoking, abusing alcohol and drugs all contribute to such poor physical condition, particularly in the county I live in.

I have gotten somewhat off course but my point is if your platelet counts are low and your doctor’s treatment is getting less than looked-for results, what would it hurt? Using natural remedies to increase platelets not just means herbs and nutritional supplements but the whole sphere of doing things that are healthful to you and your body.

You examine your daily activities and take away any behavior that might have a negative influence on your health. You then substitute them with activities that are good for you. This alone will activate your body to crank up its powerful self-healing processes.

You can use natural methods to improve platelet counts. And in the process your medical doctor will not need to prescribe higher doses of drug treatments. In time your reliance could be reduced or just removed.
 
I know I said this in a previous post but I would be remiss if I didn't mention it again...

Natural Alternatives To Increase Platelets Backed By Scientific Evidence

Many people suffer from low platelets.  One of the biggest causes of low platelet counts is ITP Blood Disorder which is an autoimmune condition that decreases platelets. This condition requires doctor's care but you can also assist your doctor to reverse low platelet counts using all natural alternatives.

You may at first think this to be just wishful thinking or some kind of scam but proven natural methods are backed by scientific evidence.

I have an autoimmune disease called lupus and there are also natural remedies for this that I have found effective. The point is, all natural treatments shouldn't be overlooked for any ailment, condition or disease especially for ITP.

Remember, you should always be under doctors care and standard medical treatments are needed especially if counts are below 50k. The situation becomes an emergency below 20k and can require hospitalization. But all natural remedies can be used as a "complementary" alternative to your current medical treatment.

In fact many doctors are now recognizing the value of implementing additional natural methods along with standard treatments. Your doctor should at least be willing to cooperate with your wishes, be sure to communicate them to him or her.

There is a fantastic book written about how all natural methods can be used to end low platelets. The title is Conquer Low Platelets and is written by Dr. Louis Cruz and is a must read if you have ITP. He has spent a lifetime successfully treating family members and his patients with all natural methods.

All references to the scientific evidence to support his claims and treatments are available at the end of the book in the bibliography. If you would like to read more about this publication you can go here - Dr. Louis Cruz's Website
