Possible causes of an increased white blood cell count. Infections, viruses or bacteria. When we catch the flu, a virus or an infection, our body reacts by increasing the number of white blood cells to fight the foreign bodies and maintain health. Anaemia can also produce an increase in white blood cells.
A number of health conditions can cause the white blood cell count to plummet. Infections, leukemia, cancer treatments, anemia, medications, autoimmune disorders, and even allergies can all take aim at the immune system, weakening it and leaving the body more vulnerable to infections. Take folic acid. 2  The body needs folic acid to make white blood cells. 3  In fact, one of the side effects of excess intake of folic acid is an increase in WBCs. 4  A deficiency of folic acid can also lead to anemia, which is a low level of red blood cells. 5  So if youâre low on either, increasing intake of folic acid may help.
