High homocysteine and cholesterol profile raise heart risk. HDL is low, triglycerides high. Ferritin is very high (inflammation or iron overload). Lifestyle changes, folate/B12, and statin therapy may be needed. Repeat tests and consult a physician.

Last Saturday, I went for a full body checkup at Dr. Lal Path Lab. In the report, I found that I have high triglycerides, 421, and uric acid, 9.9. I want to ask if it is possible to do treatment in Homeopathy?

I recently had my executive health check up. Most of my reports are normal, but my cholesterol level is slightly high. The doctor advised me to exercise regularly and take Razel 10 mg tablet daily after dinner. I have attached my reports for your reference.
