You first need to find out why you have a low TLC before you try to determine treatment. It could be from a recent illness or infection, or perhaps from a low kcal/low protein diet.

In the meantime, make sure you are consuming the proper nutrition recommended for our age, weight and height.

Most healthy people should be consuming about 0.8 g of protein for every kg of body weight daily... and to find your total calorie needs, you can use this calculation (the Harris-Benedict Equation):

66 + (13.7 * your wt. in kg) + (5 * your ht in cm) - (6.8 * your age in yrs) = # kcals needed DAILY to maintain your BASAL METABOLIC RATE and your CURRENT WEIGHT... in other words, if you do nothing but sleep or lie around all day and want to stay the same weight.

Once you get that number, multiply it by an ACTIVITY FACTOR. This will probably range from 1.1-1.2 for little or no exercise but maybe some housework, to 1.9 or more for someone training several hours daily for the Olympics.

For moderate exercise and daily indoor/outdoor chores, etc, a good start is 1.3 or 1.4.

If, after eating a diet that I have just described for a couple weeks, you still have a low TLC, you should definitely get checked out.

What is the reason of increase in TLC and what are their effect?

An increase in total leukocyte count (TLC), or leukocytosis, typically occurs in response to infections, inflammation, stress, or certain medical conditions like leukemia. The elevated white blood cell count indicates that the immune system is actively responding to a challenge, helping to fight off pathogens or heal tissue. While a temporary increase can be beneficial for immune defense, persistently high levels may indicate an underlying health issue requiring further investigation.

Does TLC increase decrease or stay the same during exercise?

During exercise, total lung capacity (TLC) generally stays the same. While tidal volume increases as you breathe more deeply and frequently, the overall lung capacity does not change significantly. Instead, the distribution of air within the lungs alters, with a greater emphasis on gas exchange efficiency rather than an increase in TLC itself.

What could be the reason for low TLC?

Low total leukocyte count (TLC), or leukopenia, can result from various factors, including bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, viral infections, and certain medications, such as chemotherapy. Nutritional deficiencies, particularly of vitamin B12 or folate, can also contribute to low TLC. Additionally, chronic illnesses or overwhelming infections may lead to a reduced white blood cell count as the body struggles to produce enough cells to meet demand.
