Why am I so thirsty all of a sudden?

Thirst is normally just the brain's way of warning that you're dehydrated because you're not drinking enough fluid. But excessive and persistent thirst (known as polydipsia) could be a sign of an underlying problem such as diabetes.

I'm a bit worried about my recent fasting blood sugar level, which came out to be 87 mgdL. Also, my mom's result was 98.97. I'm around 6 feet tall and weigh about 100 kg. With these numbers, do I have prediabetes? And what about my mom? Is she at risk too? What steps should we take?

I'm trying to figure out whether it's better to take the Vitamin D Uprise sachet with milk or just stick with the Uprise capsule. I recently noticed my Vitamin D and B12 levels dropped from 60 to 27 over the past four months. I spend a lot of time working under AC as I'm in IT. How can I keep my Vitamin D and B12 levels healthy? Are there any natural or mild supplements you'd recommend for maintaining these vitamins? Also, what would be a good yearly dosage to consider?

Both Vit D Uprise sachet and Uprise capsule are effective in increasing Vitamin D levels. However, if you prefer to take it with milk, then the Vit D Uprise sachet with milk would be a better option. To maintain optimal Vitamin D and B12 levels, you can consider taking supplements. For Vitamin D, you can take Uprise Vitamin D3 capsules 60,000 IU once a week for 8 weeks, followed by Uprise Vitamin D3 60,000 IU once a month. For Vitamin B12, you can take Neurobion Forte tablets once daily. Additionally, include Vitamin D and B12 rich foods in your diet such as fatty fish, fortified dairy products, eggs, and lean meats. Regular exposure to sunlight is also important for Vitamin D synthesis. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice based on your specific health needs.
