Workout and weight loss on wheels- Information to know

Often diets suggest that you should go to a doctor before starting a new regiment. Here are some thing that should be checked out before, during, and after a diet.Cholesterol: If your level is above 180 mg/dl, you should consider it a warning sign of potential circulatory problems. Ideal is below 150 mg/dl. Sometimes results are broken down into HDL [“good”] and LDL [“bad”] cholesterol levels, but total cholesterol is the most significant. Triglycerides: This measures the amount of fats floating in your blood. Your level will likely be between 50 and 200 mg/dl. Higher levels indicate “sludge” in your blood, cause resistance to insulin activity, and are associated with an increased risk of heart disease.Glucose (blood sugar) level: Normal fasting level is between 70 and 100 mg/dl. Higher levels indicate pre-diabetes or diabetes.BUN (Blood Urea Nitrogen): This level reflects the amount of protein you eat and the function of your kidneys. Normal is less than 15 mg/dl.Uric acid level: Normal is less than 7 mg/dl. A higher figure indicates a risk of developing gout and/or kidney stones.
