Question

I've been on Vitamin D3 and B12 supplements for the last three months, 10000iu and 5000mcg daily. Just got my blood work back, and my GGT level jumped to 111 from under 50. What's going on with that? Should I cut back or stop the vitamins? I'm 50, female, and a bit worried here.

Question

How long a diabetic person can live?

Question

I'm looking at these numbers on my health report and I'm a bit concerned. My GGT level is 130, which I know isnt great. I dont drink, and I try to keep a fairly healthy lifestyle. I had a baby about a year ago and recently recovered from Covid. Also, my T4 level is showing as 3.8, which seems low, and my Vitamin B12 is high. Could this be from the postnatal vitamins I was taking, which I've stopped now? Id really appreciate your advice on what could be going on.
