Does Cranberry Juice Bring Up Platelet Count?
My daughter is due to deliver her third child by cesaerian on Jan. 30th. Just recently, she found out her platelet count was low... around 140,000. Does cranberry juice bring up platelet level? I told her to eat red fruits, veggies, liver, figs, prunes, etc.

Hi
Not sure about cranberry juice but you can give Pomegranate fruit juice and kiwifruit juice. These will help is improving her platelet count.
Also the cause needs to be found else it may drop further . If she is on any medication kindly let me know as some medications can lower the platelet count and hence needs to be changed.
Any clarification feel free to ask .
