I've been struggling with managing my weight and height because I'm 100kg and 58 feet tall. I really want to adopt a healthy diet and exercise plan, but I'm so busy with my studies that I can't find the time for regular exercise. I'm worried about how this is affecting my health. Can you suggest a simple and effective plan that fits into a hectic schedule?

Given your busy schedule, aim for a balanced diet rich in lean proteins, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats. For exercise, try incorporating short, effective sessions like 20-30 minutes of walking, cycling, or home workouts that you can fit into your routine, even if it's just a few times a week. Consistency is key!

View allI'm 40 and my fasting sugar levels are usually around 110. I'm really committed to both intense cardio and strength workouts, and I'm sticking to a low-carb and low-fat diet. I'm really hoping to get my fasting sugar down into the 90s. Do you have any suggestions on what else I could do to achieve that?
Maintain healthy life style and get yourself checked regularly for any underlying disease and appropriate management.

I'm trying to understand the difference between TSH and TSH ultrasensitive tests. How do they differ, and is one considered better than the other? It's a bit confusing to me.
TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) and TSH Ultra-Sensitive are both blood tests that measure thyroid function, but the key difference lies in their sensitivity: TSH measures TSH levels above 0.5-1.0 mUL, while TSH Ultra-Sensitive measures levels as low as 0.01-0.05 mUL, making it more sensitive in detecting subtle thyroid function abnormalities, especially in cases of hyperthyroidism or thyroiditis, so the Ultra-Sensitive test is generally considered better for diagnosing and monitoring thyroid conditions.
