Turn Low Platelets Around - Increase Platelets By Healing Your Body With The Food You Eat

Is it possible to increase Low Platelets using what you eat? Most doctors will say that it isn't. But not all doctors agree. You have heard it said "you can't see the forest because of all the trees." Well Low Platelets can be like that. There are so many health problems caused by low platelet count that we concentrate on the symptoms like the bleeding, bruising, exhaustion and pain that we don't pay as much attention to the big picture, the "forest" so to speak.

Back to diet and how it can help or heart Low Platelets.

Many recommend a diet that is largely composed of protein. Many people follow this type of diet but don't get the results needed. For many, especially Americans, there is already to much protein in their diets and adding more is not a good idea.

Large amounts of protein in the diet may cause an acid buildup in your body which in turn increase inflation and the destruction of more platelets. This type of diet won't help bone marrow to produce more platelets. If the body is given rest from these food it will, more often than not, repair itself and began producing more platelets. A short term low calorie diet may be helpful and by implementing it, your body could produce more platelets in this process of detox and healing.

Here is a low calorie diet that can be followed for a short time to test results. It is recommended by Louis Cruz the MD who wrote the book "Conquer Low Platelets" (that I recommend by the way).

Morning Meal

Cooked oats with Rice dream or Almond Milk. You can use honey or molasses to mildly sweeten the oats. Agave is also ok.

One cup of blue berries. Use other fruits of the berry family or pomegranate.

Two slices of toast. Use only Ezekiel bread well toasted. You can find this in the health foods store. Add a small amount of almond butter or peanut butter. If you use peanut butter make sure you use only the one that has the oil on the top. Avoid the creamy versions since they have Trans fats added and many times sugar also.

Mid day Meal

Large vegetable salad that should have celery, beets, tomatoes, carrots and romaine lettuce. Only add lemon, salt and olive oil for flavor.

An unprocessed starch such as brown rice

A protein of vegetable origin is preferred such as beans. Cook with olive oil. Extra virgin with its natural color is recommended.

A portion of cooked veggies such as kale, cabbage or broccoli.

Supper

This meal should be very light.

Use a homemade vegetable soup

Ezekiel bread toast.

Or Toast and some fruit or fruit salad.

Only water is used between meals and nothing else. Each meal should be five hours separate from each other. Take a good multivitamin while doing this. That way you will not have anything missing.

It only make sense that Low Platelets can be improved if you have a healthy diet. Many times our poor health is caused by our unknowingly bad habits. Following natural remedies can improve your quality of life.

Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura - Treat ITP Naturally - Get Your Health Back!

By Maggi Pier

Be brutally honest about your ITP disorder. Do you actually think that it just came out of nowhere? That perhaps you just woke up one day and "voila" you had ITP? Why you? Why ITP? You can't seem to come up with any plausible explanation! It's not like you can "catch" it like a common cold. It is not a germ for gosh sakes! Just why on earth has your body forsaken you?

Your doctor sure as heck can't give you an answer, can he? Ok, I am sure that if you are reading this, either you or someone close to you has been diagnosed with ITP. Now you've been recommended to take some harmful invasive therapy that you are scared to death of. Or maybe you blindly do whatever the doctor says. He knows best doesn't he?

But what do you really feel about your ITP disorder? Do you play any part in your health?

First of all, I want you to step back for a moment and take stock of your life. You're sick, you're afraid and you are most likely depressed at the prospect of rounds of drugs, chemo or perhaps spleen removal. I'd b e freaked out too if I were you. I know how you feel.

We went through the same gamut of emotions and doubt in the early stages of our daughter Vivianna's battle with ITP. We even listened to our doctor and resorted to a harsh horrible round of Prednisone. So horrid, in fact, that my darling daughter wished herself dead. It was then that we decided to take personal responsibility for our health and the health of our children.

We decided to find a better way. We asked ourselves the following questions and I strongly suggest that you also take stock of your situation and ask these questions of your self as well.

1) What do I eat? Do I eat a lot of sugar, refined wheat products or an excess of dairy. Do I eat a wholesome natural diet?
2) Do I eat a lot of fast food or processed food. Do I eat out a lot?
3) What do I clean with? Can I absolutely rule out the possibility that my cleaners just might be toxic? Do I actually know what in in these cleaners?
4) Have I been exposed to pesticides or any other chemicals?
5) Have I ever been tested for parasites or h. pylori?
6) What about stress? Are there things happening in my life that are triggering my illness? A move, a divorce, a death or job loss perhaps?
7) Have I had any viruses lately?
8) Do I live near or under any cell phone towers or main electrical transformers?
9) Do I get enough exercise or fresh air?

I could go on and on asking more questions. But it's now time to stop and realize that you probably answered yes to many, if not all of these questions. Do you know what that means in the big picture?

Think about this ...all insults to your body add up until you get to the tipping point and then your body breaks down. It's time to do your research and take control of your health.

Living a natural life is the only way to regain your precious health!
