Sickle Cell – Seasonal Variations

There is a lot to learn about those with sickle cell, first of all those who have the disease, and are thinking of going into a relationship, should make sure that their partners do not have the trait or disease or they are bound to give birth to a hild with sickle cell. A word of advise, get your bloods checked.

I have noticed that during the change of a season to the next, those with sc always react by either having a crisis or a cold which often leads to a crisis, if not taken care of. The most sensible thing to do is one, drink more water eat a lot of vegetables, friuts, and take beetroot juice. Also make sure you take glyconutrients which are very important to the body and especially to the immune system as I have found out. People who have sickle cell should always make sure that they take one product at a time, so that if for any reason you react to any product, you would know which one it is, it is also the same thing with fruits or any other natural thing you take. Some people with sickle cell have a lot of complicatins, more than others. But we would deal with this one at a time.
