Will certainly curb china's influence since most of the oil from the straite of hormuz goes to china

That helps. Though if you are not on meds I would say berberine is worth a try but start at lower dose first. It affects people diffenrtly.

If I get this right, I can yeet the prediabetes and triglycerides issue in 3 months.

One good note from the bloodwork. Looks like my NAFLD is gone πŸ˜†

Now to deal with the other two metabolic issues.

Insulin resistance and triglycerides.

All of this boils down to basic dietary changes.

I've tried metamucil before. Makes me have increased heartburn /Gerd , but that was before I ever took nexium so will see how that works now. Either way major changes needed

Those arent refined carbs so they should ne fine. Also more oatmeal

07.03.2026 13:54 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

that would help fix both issues real quick. main thing is the carbs... got to axe them

I am going to start my intermittent fasting again. droped 20lbs doing that in 2 months before the pandemic, so i can do it again.

I also need to up taking fiber, so guess i need to try metamucil. I already take Omega 3 fatty acids. My primiary issues are the triglycerides and A1c...all related to insulin resistance and my fatty liver lol. so before i get put on meds, i need to make some dietary changes.

In the bright side my iron / ferritin is normal.

Goal lose 20lbs.

Glad I've been taking berberine. Obviously been helping.

Already have NAFLD , so some of this is not surprising. Just means alter diet to combat it.

I hike 2 days a week and I am walking constantly all day as a nurse so exercise isnt the primary driver here

07.03.2026 12:00 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 2    πŸ“Œ 0

So no cookies, muffins, ice cream, etc.

More protein and fiber, far less carbs.

Limit potatoes and rice (oh gods not rice! 😭)

Guess I am going to take up my intermittent fasting again.

Got the other half. A1c is at prediabetic level of 6.1 so I got insulin resistance, and my triglycerides are to high

Guess who needs to alter their diet slightly and up the exercise.

Well half my bloodwork looks great.

Now waiting on the other half

Me as a nurse: effortlessly giving painless injections all day. πŸ’‰

Me getting my own bloodwork: β€˜Wait… why is that needle so big??’ 😭🩸

So serious question… if you call a vampire a mosquito, is that technically a slur or just accurate taxonomy? πŸ§›β€β™‚οΈπŸ¦Ÿ

Asking before I get cancelled by the undead community.
