I've been dealing with really frequent farts and burps over the past 6 months. After I eat, my belly gets bloated and it's super uncomfortable. I end up burping around 20 to 30 times and have about 40 to 50 farts, which is really annoying. I've noticed that when I eat batter-fried stuff, chicken, or hummus, it seems to get worse. What can I do to fix this issue?

To alleviate excessive gas, bloating, and discomfort, try avoiding trigger foods like batter-fried items, chicken, and hummus, and incorporate changes like eating smaller meals, chewing slowly, avoiding carbonated drinks, and staying hydrated, while considering over-the-counter remedies like simethicone, activated charcoal, or probiotics

I've had a few tests recently and I'm a bit concerned about my liver results. I got tested on March 16th and my SGOT was normal, but my SGPT was at 83.5, and my platelets were 79000. When I tested again on March 17th, the SGOT was still normal, but the SGPT went up to 87.8. I just had another test on March 19th. I've been trying to manage things by drinking 23 liters of water and taking some supplements like Liver 52, Gaumulive, and papaya leaf extract. Could you help me understand these results, and if there's something else I should be doing to lower the SGPT level?
Based on your test results, Munish, your SGPT (ALT) levels are elevated (83.5 and 87.8), indicating liver inflammation or damage, while your SGOT (AST) levels are normal; your platelet count is also low (79,000); continuing to stay hydrated with 2-3 liters of water and taking Liver 52, Gaumulive, and Papaya leaf extract may be helpful; however, consult your doctor to discuss the test results, potential underlying causes, and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.

Got my blood test results and I'm a bit worried. It shows high bilirubin and low levels of vitamin D and B12. Can you help me understand what all this means? Should I be concerned about these results, and what steps should I consider taking next?
Elevated bilirubin levels may indicate liver dysfunction or hemolysis, while low Vitamin D and B12 levels can cause fatigue, weakness, and neurological issues; consider consulting your healthcare provider to discuss potential underlying causes, such as liver disease, anemia, or malabsorption, and to determine the best course of action for addressing these deficiencies and abnormal lab results.
