Suggest Methods To Control Cholesterol And Glucose Levels
I got disturbing blood work results yesterday. My cholesterol has gone up to 240 despite a high dose of Crestor. My triglycerides are also high. In a new development, my glucose level is 104 -- up 20 points in a year. I have a healthy diet, exercise every day and am of normal weight. However, I have been using steroidal eye drops for over a year following five operations for complications of a detached retina. I was also drinking massive amounts of cranberry juice before the blood test because of a UTI. I am very frustrated by this news.
No need to worry . Just relax and start eating healthy . This elevated levels of sugar might be because of cranberry Juice
