How Can White Blood Cells Be Increased?
I was wondering if there are foods or drinks or exercise to increase my white blood cells? I have been thru cancer surgery, chemo and radiation and in remission, my white cells are increasing, but was wondering if there is a way I could help them? Didn t know there would be a charge--never mind. Thank you.
