Hi @Bernadette_Abraham

I have gone through the course for the assessment of ideal cholesterol HDL Triglycerides etc.

I have also been reading a lot about this topic.

I have attached here my test results. I have a good ratio of 0.4 between HDL and Triglycerides but my HDL is above the ideal range. So could that be interpreted as dysfunctional?

I…

Thanks so much Bernadette

Hi @Bernadette_Abraham I was wondering if you have an alternative option now to Naked Poppy retinol ? It is a shame they shut down the business, that product was magical

Thanks

@Bernadette_Abraham Thanks Bernadette for letting me know Btw, Badger company now has SPF 50 which is pure zinc based again but a lot easier to apply on face compared to SPF 40… I will still check the other brands tho you recommended

@Bernadette_Abraham Thanks a lot Bernadette. I will look into Suntegrity. Yes 100% agree with having support internally as well. I take glutathione for antioxidant support but didn’t know about the others you mentioned. Nice to have more anti-aging supports 😚

Hi @Bernadette_Abraham  Can you let me know a good brand for sunscreen face and body but min. SPF 50 or above. I have badger company SPF 40 but it is so hard to apply on face or body. It is zinc based and quite thick.
Naked Poppy offers only SPF 30.
At the age of 45 living in dubai, I need a stronger sun protection 😃

@Bernadette_Abraham Thanks so much Bernadette. So glad to find a healthier solution for our puppy. Those harsh deworm tablets did disturb her already sensitive system. Will check out Pawdega 👍

@Daniel Super helpful information without even having a dog! thanks Daniel. The article is great 👍 I will check out the holistic site too. So much to learn about them 😃

Hello @Bernadette_Abraham ,

I was wondering what healthier version of a deworm tablet you are using for your own dog and how often.

Our puppy is 7 months old. I want to keep her healthy and clean of parasites of course for her own good as well as for us. We are super careful with hygiene but I believe the worms can transmit to us if… Read more

@Bernadette_Abraham Thanks Bernadette

@Bernadette_Abraham thanks a lot for clarifying it. They ran the test in parallel to the homocysteine so we thought it was connected.

His homocysteine levels were high before around 16; he has been using ‘Nutri-dyn Methyl Complete’ supplement which helped a lot to drop the levels to 5.7. This is a marker we are conscious of and always… Read more

@Bernadette_Abraham  I have attached the fasting insulin result too. I understand the thyroid levels may not be at the optimum levels; however being a thyroid patient for 20 years, I am struggling to comprehend how that would lead to an extreme ferritin levels?

iNSULIN FASTING

@Bernadette_Abraham  However, there was something a bit confusing. Although they said the hemochromatosis test result was negative, there was one more test had come positive. I have attached here the  MTHFR C677T test results. The doc had mentioned this was  for blood clotting tho.  We were a bit confused at the time to be honest. Would you… Read more

@Bernadette_Abraham  Yes the genetic condition was tested and ruled out. Thyroid and sugar levels are normal.

It was diagnosed as non-alcoholic fatty liver.

I have attached here the results for HBA1C, thyroid and transferring ferritin levels.

HBA1C Transferin Iron Thyroid

Hi @Bernadette_Abraham  and @Daniel .  My husband’s blood tests had shown high ferritin levels back in 2022. (Levels: 417)  After running some test, it was found out that the levels are high due to fatty liver.

He has been on a very clean and high-fibre diet along with some supplements to help detoxification.  “Nutri-Dyn Detox I&II” and… Read more

Hi @Bernadette_Abraham  and @Daniel  . I am now due for a yearly check up. Before heading to the clinic, I was wondering your recommended list of tests to perform part of routine check ups for a 44 year old 😃 I know this should be tailored around the specifics of the person, but I also assume there must be some standard list of tests that we… Read more

I have been having some muscle spasms and started have some pins and needles on my arm. I am positive that this numbing feeling is caused by the spams rather than a disc problem pinching a nerve or something. The same was also confirmed by my acupuncturist based on the location of the pain and affected meridian. However, my doctor insisted… Read more
