i am on liquorice have been told it helps with low blood count! worth a try, its good for bowels as well. GP has put me on antibiotics cos blood count so low - yes or no guys! what do we think????
mum too liquorice (from the health food shop) while on chemotherapy. This was really to combat the terrible digestive problems she had. Don't remember her mentioning anything to do with liquorice combatting her low blood values, but she did take liquorice for a long time during chemo.
I used to eat it whilst on chemo especially when having treatment to help with th bowel and it worked for me with wholemeal break. No idea re bloods as I ended up on injections for low counts and they remained low so guessing maybe not re bloods.
But are all different so if it helps you thats all that matters.
With the agreement of my Oncologist I take the following every day - a vitamin B complex tablet, a Vitamin B12 tablet and a VitaminC tablet. - I take these with water or juice - because Tea stops the body absobing vitamin B and iron.
My blood counts have always been great while on chemo - I can only tell you my experience - but it works for me. Jools
