Suggest A Good Diet For Neutropenia?

Hi, I am 50 and I have been having neutropenia for the last 6 months(Absolute Neutrophils: 1600, WBC count 4000). I had no infections and I feel well. I took a couple of days anti-inflamatory, due to a leg injure, 3 weeks before the blood test. Can I eat raw garlic? I do have naturally low blood pressure (100/60). Wwhat is a good diet for neutropenia?
