Thus far on this journey, I have found out what I am deficient in. And on Monday I go to the nutritionist to see what I can do about it.
One of the things I am deficient in, which also makes me boarder line anemic, is folic acid.
How folic acid deficiency was explained to me, is it is very important for heart health. One can be fit, low cholesterol, and have heart problems all due to deficient folic acid. Yet it is one of those tests that is generally not done.
I am now taking a prescription for 1mg of folic acid.
Another series of test was done for my amino acids. All of which are also boarderline low, with a few that are out of range for normal.
Aspargine, and methylhistidine, and tryptophan. Not sure what any of this means. Hopefully on Monday.
Also what was tested was the buoyancy of my ldl. Of which my size pattern is more toward the small size pattern- (b) but still considered ab, A is large. Not sure what the goal is of that is either.
And yes my cholesterol is a little high.. its 203, and goal for that is 200 or less. My triglycerides are also out of range.
