Hi
I am happy to say there is an excellent natural remedy to Increase WBC and Platelets.

You mentioned Giloy (Also known as Amrutha) . It is an excellent herb to increase the platelets, however , I would suggest you the following combination-

Juice of papaya leaves (20ml) +
Aloe vera Juice (20 ml)+
1/4 tsp of GILOY SATWA (Patanjali Pharmacy) +
1 tsp of Ashwaghandha Choorna (Patanjali Pharmacy)

- to be taken first thing on empty stomach in the morning with warm water.

This Combination is directed at both Platelets and WBC. You can expect some good results in couple of weeks.

Adviced Pranayama - Kapalbathi is one pranayama i would strongly recommend as a part of your routine. I would also advice you follow a regular yoga/ workout/ walk that you are comfortable with, in order to keep the physical health active.

Diet to be avoided - Please avoid Oily and Junk food, extremely spicy, Fried food, Sweets, Non veg and Alcohol.

Stick to veggies , fruits and low oil home food.
Drink Plenty of water to maintain fluid balance.
Get a good sound Sleep of 7-8 hours

NOTE : Please note that this is NOT a replacement to Interferon, but an added natural support. Continuing or discontinuing the Interferon must not be done without consulting the doctor who prescribed it to you.

I hope this has been helpful.

Warm Regards
Dr Rashmi Kamath
