There is no sure shot way to lower platelet count by eating specific foods. However, your doctor might prescribe platelet-lowering drugs such as hydroxyurea (Droxia, Hydrea), anagrelide (Agrylin)

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a PHOSPHORUS (INORGANIC) - URINE Test or Take a HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS (HSV) TYPE 1&2 IgM Test
