Dr. Zhang Heyang
Patients with immune thrombocytopenia should consume more foods rich in protein, various vitamins, and trace elements, such as lean meat, eggs, dairy products, fish, legumes, and seafood. They may also benefit from eating foods that help stop bleeding, such as lotus root, black fungus (wood ear mushrooms), and pears. Spicy and irritating foods should be avoided. It is important to maintain a nutritious and balanced diet, enhance nutrition, and ensure adequate intake of all essential nutrients.
