Yesterday’s lab test result came in.
My A1C got worse than the last lab of September 2018. Last time it was 6.4, and this time it got worse to 7.3.
Most values of Cholesterol did not change much; similar to that of last time. Only HDL cholesterol was improved from last time.
My blood pressure was improved. They are now within the standard range.
All the values of liver functions were good, so were other blood values.
Even though my lab test result was not perfectly good, I have a feeling that I am in the right path. I feel more energized and easier to move around than before. I am confident I am taking good care of my body.

My friend has been studying Chinese medicine for these past several years. She is now studying to become a Certified Medical Herbalist. She gave me some advice to heal my body.
I am going to write down some of her advice as my personal memo.
Nettle tea is good for lowering blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol. This herb is widely used for diabetes.
Taking mulberry tea before every meal is helpful to lower appetite and to decrease sugar levels and blood pressure.
Bergamot essential oil, or any other citrus fragrant, is helpful to prevent overeating. I can put some drops of citrus essential oil into a cotton ball and keep it in my breast pocket.
Linden tea increases urine production so that it helps lowering blood pressure. It is easy to drink.
Hawthorn tea is used for diseases of the heart and blood vessels such as congestive heart failure.
Milk thistle is a natural treatment for liver problems. It is recommended to take it as a supplement.
Artichoke promotes healthy liver function and detoxifies the body. It contains fiber and protein.
Warming liver helps its function. Liver is located under right breast.

I appreciate my friend to take time to give me these helpful advice.
