Dengue fever: 3 types of juice help increase platelets for patients

Dengue fever is an infectious disease caused by the Dengue virus. One of the serious complications of dengue fever is a decrease in the number of platelets in the blood, leading to the risk of bleeding and other dangerous complications.

During treatment, maintaining and increasing platelet count is important. In addition to medical methods, some natural juices have been studied and proven to help increase platelets, according to the health website Everyday Health (USA).

Beetroot contains many nutrients that help increase platelet count in the blood.

Platelets are an important component of blood, involved in blood clotting and wound healing. Juices that effectively increase platelet count include:

Papaya leaf juice

Papaya leaves have long been used in traditional medicine to help treat dengue fever. A study published in the journal Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine found that papaya leaf juice significantly increased platelet counts in dengue patients.

To make papaya leaf juice, wash the young leaves, crush them and squeeze out the juice. Drink 25 ml of papaya leaf juice twice a day for 5 days. Do not drink more than 50 ml at a time. However, to ensure safety, patients should consult a doctor before using.

Pomegranate juice

Pomegranate is a fruit rich in nutrients, especially iron and vitamin C. These are two important factors that help produce platelets. Iron helps increase the production of red blood cells and platelets, while vitamin C helps absorb iron more effectively. In addition, pomegranates also contain powerful antioxidants such as polyphenols and flavonoids, which protect blood cells from damage and support immunity.

Ingredients for making pomegranate juice are 1 to 2 ripe pomegranates. After removing the pomegranate seeds, we can blend them in a blender or use a juicer to extract the juice.

Beetroot juice

Beets are rich in iron, folate, and antioxidants, which are essential for the production of blood platelets. Specifically, iron helps increase the production of red blood cells and platelets, while folate is important for the division of blood cells.

Each time you drink, you only need a 200-300 gram beetroot, you can add carrots or apples to increase the flavor. Cut everything into thin slices, then put it in a juicer or blender, according to Everyday Health .
