Question

Hey, I'm kind of worried about my vitamin levels and wondering if it's okay to take vitamin D and B12 supplements at the same time. My recent test showed my vitamin D is at 7.3 ngml and vitamin B12 is at 89 pgml. Do you think I should start taking supplements? If so, can you recommend any specific ones that might help?

With your low Vitamin D (7.3 ngml) and borderline low Vitamin B12 (89 pgml) levels, taking supplements together is safe, but consult your doctor to confirm; consider Nature Made Vitamin D3 2000 IU and Jarrow Formulas Methyl B12 2500 mcg, but ensure you follow the recommended dosages and monitor your levels regularly.

Question

I've been seeing doctors for my thyroid and cervical spondylitis issues, and during my recent visits, they found my lipid levels are off - my triglycerides are high at 200, my HDL is low, and my LDL is high. The endocrinologist recommended some diet and exercise changes, and the neuro physician prescribed STORVAS 10 mg to help control my lipid levels alongside my spondylitis meds. However, when I visited a gastroenterologist for a routine check-up, they told me not to start any cholesterol meds since Id need to take them for life. I feel stuck and unsure about what to do. Could you help me figure out whether I should start the meds or not?

Question

I'm trying to understand if my blood sugar levels are normal. After having breakfast, my readings usually fall between 88 and 92 three hours later. Is this considered a good level?
