I'm really into fitness and have been for the past few months. I used to have 5 egg whites a day, but to get more protein, I increased it to 10. I usually eat them after my workout. Lately, I've been having gastric issues and even started experiencing back pain. I heard that these problems could be connected, like maybe the back pain could be because of too much egg white consumption and the gastric issue. Is there any truth to this?

View allI've recently found out that my SGPT level is 79.8 and my total cholesterol is 174.5. I'm a bit worried and would really like to bring the SGPT down. Do you have any recommendations on how I can manage these levels, particularly the SGPT? I've been reading up a bit and it's all a tad confusing, so some clear advice would be super helpful!
To lower your SGPT level, also known as ALT (alanine aminotransferase), you can take the following steps: - Avoid alcohol consumption. Maintain a healthy weight through diet and exercise. Avoid fatty, fried, and processed foods. Consider taking medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). To lower your total cholesterol level, you can follow a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet and increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains

My mom has severe burning in her rectum but no blood in her stools. We thought it might be piles, but the doctor recommended surgery. What could be the exact issue and is surgery really necessary? Are there any effective ointments or tablets that could help instead?
The burning sensation in the rectum, especially if it's not related to blood in the stool, could be due to several conditions besides hemorrhoids, including anal fissures, proctitis, or even infections. While hemorrhoid surgery is sometimes necessary, it's not always the first line of treatment and other options should be explored. Topical creams, ointments, and in some cases, oral medications can provide relief and may be sufficient to manage the symptoms without surgery

I've been having some digestive issues and I'm wondering if eating corn could be causing me constipation. I eat corn pretty often and would love to know if there's a natural remedy that could help with this. Any advice?
Corn is generally a great source of nutrition and fibre for the body, however, anything can be harmful when taken in extreme excess. Constipation can be relieved by taking stool softeners and laxatives such as Duphalac syrup or Dulcolax tablets.
