Thanks Bharati Chowdhury! I too believe from experience that the papaya-leaf treatment works wonders on the platelet count.

Thank you so much Bharati Chowdhury for this wonderful posting. My question is - could this work with other serious liver complaints like Hepatitis C ? Could it be better than buying into those horrendous Interferon treatments that damage the whole body, trying to blast a virus, leaving a multitude of damaging after-effects? Bitters are known to be good for liver blood !
