Sir, I am obese, weighing 104 kg with a height of 5.11. I am 32 years old, male. I have cholesterol 221, triglycerides 149, HDL 40, and higher LDL. I saw a video on YouTube about weight loss with cinnamon tea. Can you please tell me the detailed benefits and usage for my present condition? Should I take it or not? Thank you.

BMI and weight indicate obesity. Cholesterol (221) and low HDL (40) need lifestyle changes. Cinnamon may support sugar and cholesterol control slightly. It is not a primary treatment use with caution. Focus on diet, exercise, and regular monitoring.

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?
