Are oranges good for diabetics?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruits and lemons are full of fibre, vitamin C, folate and potassium, which would help benefit a healthy diabetic eating plan. Oranges are full of fibre and also have low glycemic index.

get some hormonal tests done, sometimes due to hormonal problems, the weight doesn't increase. have high protein diet. then hit the gym. that way you will gradually increase weight in a controlled manner and your weight will not be because of fat.

I've just turned 26 and I'm a guy. I got my thyroid test results back and found that my TSH level is super low at 0.01 uIUml, although my T3, T4, FT3, and FT4 levels are all normal. I'm a bit worried about what this means. Should I be concerned and think about seeing a doctor?
Yes it is. Low TSH with a normal t3 and t4 points to hyperthyroidism. Consult a physician.
