Any standard blood test will have BUN or urea numbers. Conventional doctors will look at high or low BUN numbers and not mention anything, but these can indicate that certain processes in the body aren’t optimal.
hmmm may be around 110 Gms...but honestly..I had more cheat days during last 3 months...
plus consumed few mango.
I was also very much concerned about my Thyroid...as u see in my reports ..since I started controlling carbs TSH were steadily increasing.. as per the last reports TSH level were almost pointing to Hypothyroid.. so was scared to reduce carbs further (A lame excuse??)
But I figured out the problem...it was not carbs but Fenugreek seeds..I stopped them altogether..
Plus due to certain domestic duties (again lame excuse) no morning walks..
Generally my fasting remains around 90 every day.. but the day I consume mango next day i land up fasting above 100.
On the day of blood test.... on waking up FBS was 92 by my home meter...when they took blood it was showing 107 by my meter..
Any reference that fenugreek seeds and lowering of carbs adversely affected your thyroid function ? May be erraneous tsh report previously. How did you find out about carb - fenugreek seeds and thyroid relationship ? Was it by your instinct or somewhere you got the reference ?
Sometimes, after initially losing weight and correcting hormonal imbalances on a low carbohydrate diet, you may experience weight gain, fatigue, or even hair thinning a few months later. These symptoms could be signs of hypothyroidism, also known as an underactive thyroid.
Eating too many carbohydrates and grain-based foods can cause serious health issues, feeding disease-causing microorganisms in the digestive tract and even triggering inflammation. But cutting carbohydrates out of the diet completely can affect thyroid hormones and cause hibernation syndrome — resulting in weight gain, drowsiness, and cold extremities.
To reduce carbohydrates effectively, it is important to cut them out of the diet slowly by following the Body Ecology Principles. One of the easiest ways to do this is by paying attention to food ratios and including more BE-friendly starchy vegetables and grain-like seeds in your diet, based on the Body Ecology Principle of 80/20. You can also nourish your thyroid with fermented foods, probiotic beverages, and daily mineral support.
But forget this suramo I am not and was never on very low carb diet...I am always on moderately low carb diet...
But I was scared...
Further fenugreek seeds acts on all glands..that is for sure... and after stopping them got good results...
Results of the BUN test are measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL). Normal BUN values tend to vary depending on gender and age. It’s also important to note that each laboratory has different ranges for what’s normal.
In general, normal BUN levels fall in the following ranges:
atleast once in week chicken or fish (mostly fried in coconut oil)
On Sundays red meat(Grass fed Goat) is must..
Early morning few almonds plus pistachios and milk
Break fast around 9.00 besan chilla or sprouts/ fried eggs (ghee) with butter and coconut
Lunch around 2.30/3.00 PM one and half chapatti of long wheat and any vegetable with 3/4 cloves of garlic and turmeric pickle + 8 pieces of coccinica indica.
- Low-protein diet, malnutrition or starvation (R).
Ruled out
- Impaired liver activity due to liver disease (R).
Possibility
- Genetic deficiency of urea cycle enzymes (R).
Don't know
- Higher IGF-1 and growth hormone. These inhibit urea synthesis (R). Growth hormone-deficient children given human growth hormone have lower urea nitrogen and this is due to decreased urea synthesis (R).
May be due to butter and milk
- Anabolic steroids, which decreases protein breakdown.
I lost my half thyroid to surgery some 17 yrs ago( one wing of butterfly)... but after that everything was normal... even now it is normal.. (so even my half thyroid is working fine-Butter fly can fly with one wing ).
But be sure.. fenugreek works on all glands.. Thyroid is also gland..
