Is tea good for diabetics?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Research suggests that green tea, turmeric tea, hibiscus tea, cinnamon tea, lemon balm tea, chamomile tea, and black tea may improve insulin sensitivity and offer impressive antidiabetic effects. Hence, they can be included in diet. Milk sugars are carbohydrates, particularly lactose, is not good but milk fats are good for diabetes. Hence, you may consume milk seperately in moderation but it is better to not add in tea.

My TSH level is 82.5 and I might need surgery with general anesthesia is that safe or should I be worried about my thyroid levels affecting the procedure?
A TSH level of 82.5 is significantly elevated, indicating hypothyroidism. This can increase the risk of complications during surgery and anesthesia, particularly related to heart failure, hypothermia, and electrolyte imbalances. While surgery is generally safe, it's crucial to discuss your high TSH with your surgeon and anesthesiologist to address potential risks and ensure a safe procedure.
