I recently got my blood test results back, and it shows my SGOT is at 43 and SGPT is 85, which seems higher than normal. Should I be concerned about this? I've had an ultrasound on my abdomen too, and it says I have a Grade 1 fatty liver. I do drink alcohol about once a week. How serious is this situation? What steps should I take next?

Concerning that your BP isn't in the normal range despite taking Tazloc AM! Consider discussing the following with your doctor: 1. *Dose adjustment*: Increasing or adjusting the dosage of Tazloc AM. 2. *Combination therapy*: Adding another medication to complement Tazloc AM. 3. *Lifestyle changes*: Enhancing diet, exercise, and stress management to support BP control. 4. *Monitoring*: Regular BP checks to adjust treatment as needed. Remember, it's essential to work closely with your doctor to find the right treatment plan for your high blood pressure.

The friendly bacteria in our guts help digest foods that our bodies have trouble breaking down. These bacteria also produce gas, usually as they digest food in the large intestines. Foods most often linked to intestinal gas include: Beans and lentils Asparagus, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, and other vegetables Fructose, a natural sugar found in artichokes, onions, pears, wheat, and some soft drinks Lactose, the natural sugar found in milk Fruits, oat bran, peas, and other foods high in soluble fiber, which gets digested in your large intestine Corn, pasta, potatoes, and other foods rich in starch Sorbitol, the artificial sweetener Whole grains, such as brown rice, oatmeal, and whole wheat.
