Levothyroxine and blood sugar levels?
Usually when I have my bloods tested my glucose / sugar levels are between 4-6. However, I checked them today on a gadget my hubby has and the levels were 7.2 one hour after a meal. I thought that was a bit high so I checked it again 3 hours later I had some snacks before and the levels were 7.8. I know

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: Arginine - Nitric Oxide
Nalakrats wrote a number of things that I disagree with. Here is one of them: "Cancer cells hate oxygen" Such statements are usually followed by a reference to Otto Warburg who won a Nobel in 1931. i.e. it must be true. (Poor Otto is usually misquoted, but his view that hypoxia is the cause of cancer

Finally have my liver biopsy results. No fibrossis, No NASH just very mild fatty liver and mild inflammation. Dr believes that i do not have an enlarged liver and spleen as suggested by ultrasound. Ct showed normal size. He said the size ranges of a liver, used as a guidline, are based on an average

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: Choline
As many will know, radio-labeled glucose PET scans aren't very useful for PCa imaging, & there has been great interest in radio-labeled choline PET/CT. From a paper this month [1]: "To date, several positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) radiotracers including fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: D - Calcitriol - human studies
Skip to the BOTTOM LINE if desired. Calcitriol (1,25-D) is hormonal vitamin D. It is produced by the kidneys as needed, in order to regulate calcium homeostasis in the blood. For that reason, it is not a good measure of vitamin D status. Not a lot of calcitriol is made at one time, & it has a half-life

Advice on PCOS diagnosis, please
Hi everyone, I have poly-cystic ovaries, I have bad acne (despite being 23 years-old), hair loss in my scalp, I sometimes get a bloated stomach and I have facial hair. I have also always had dark circles under my eyes, which I am not sure if it is connected to PCOS. I went to my gynaecologist at 15 years

Healthy just need to lose weight!
Well I had a good overall health check and bloods dome for just about everything - pleased to say everything is perfectly fine π. Cholesterol and glucose normal too which is great. Just that I'm 4 stone overweight!! Still I think I'm lucky that I'm in this situation and not having to take any tablets

Reasons why pumpkin should be included in the diet.
Pumpkins are huge fruits that are thought to have originated in North America. They are exceptionally healthy, so it's quite unfortunate to think that they are often overlooked as a source of fiber. They are also full of important disease-fighting vitamins and a whole host of other essentials. That's

Everyone knows cancers need sugar to grow right? Well that's not necessarily true!

Understanding blood test results
Hi all. After 15 years on levo and constantly suffering from fatigue etc I have pretty much demanded an endo referral. My GP ran some blood tests last week and has sent off the referral. The surgery receptionist has printed off the results for me today. Slightly mystified that there are no thyroid results

Gluten free vitamins contains wheat starch
I've been trying to find Vitamin D3 tablets that do not contain maize/corn, gluten, wheat, soya. (tried various brands including some prescribed by Dr and none agree with me.) I found Bioglan Vitamin D3 which seemed to fit the bill and have been taking them for a week or so. My mood lifted somewhat,

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: Butyric Acid, Butyrate, Sodium Butyrate - Butter
Not an easy subject, so apologies up-front. [1] If you have smelled rancid butter, you will be familiar with the smell of butyric acid. It can even be detected, at much lower levels, in freshly-bought butter. Butyric acid is a short-chain fatty acid found in butter in triglyceride form. With rancidity
