Question by Unnikrishnan on Oct 29, 2024Hindi

Health

I am 69 years old. My latest sugar level is 70 fbs and 90 after taking food. I feel shivering and weakness. What should I do to improve sugar level

Ans: Dear Unnikrishnan Ji,
These sugar levels are within normal limits. A healthy and non diabetic person can have such sugar levels.
If you are feeling shivering and weakness, it might not be related to sugar levels but other factors.
You apparently need not to do anything for sugar levels but definitely may benefit from a preventive health check up and physician consultation.

Best wishes,
Dr Chandrakant Lahariya

Hi Komal, I am 35 years old and 5'8" is my height and 104 kg is my weight. My fast sugar level is 213 and after meal is 348. I am taking any medicine yet. Please advise.

Ans: The target blood sugar levels for people without diabetes for normal fasting blood glucose concentration are between 70 mg/dl and 100 mg/dl and for 2 hours post meal is 140 mg/dl or below. Your blood sugar levels are indicative of diabetes and thus needs medical attention. Dietary and lifestyle modifications will help lower these levels but over a period of time.

I am 62 years old my sugar levels fasting 92 PP 81 HbA1C 6.3. Till date I have not taken any medicine for sugar. Am to start taking medicine for sugar now onwards. Thank you

Ans: HbA1c of 6.3 indicates prediabetes. To bring down your blood sugar levels, opt for foods with a low glycemic index (GI) to minimize blood sugar spikes like whole grains, bulgur, barley, oats, beans, and lentils. Include high-fiber foods include fruits, vegetables, beans, and whole grains. Avoid foods and beverages high in added sugars, and fat. Reducing portion sizes can help manage calorie intake and maintain a moderate weight and regular physical activity improves insulin sensitivity.

Career

Hi, I’m Arjun from Bangalore. I recently started a new job, and every time I meet someone, I feel like I’m not leaving the best first impression. It’s like I know they’re judging me in those first 7 seconds, and I’m not sure if I’m doing enough to make a positive impact. My body language is thoda awkward and sometimes I get nervous while speaking. Kya aap mujhe kuch tips de sakte ho, jisse main apna first impression improve kar sakoon?

Ans: Hi Arjun
You are giving an impression of being extra conscious.
We tend to overthink as to what others think/perceive about us.
The best way is to be your natural self rather than trying to be someone else. Yes we all have areas of improvement & we must continue to work towards self enhancement but it should be based upon your own honest introspection & not lead by what others think/feel, some random thoughts.
Feel free to ask about any specific area of self development that you feel the need to work upon.
All the Best !!

Hi I'm 32 working in my current company for past 5 years. Earlier I was assigned to some other work which I was able to do easily. For past few months I've been transferred and given different work. It's completely new to me and I'm getting a hard time understanding it. In top of that my new colleague who knows the work isn't helpful at all. Most of the time I'm stressed that I don't know how to do this work. Even my weekends go into stressing about work. Please guide me how should I come out of this situation.

Ans: Hello
If the new work assigned is going to add value to your career, then you should take it as an opportunity & give it your best shot.
It is not normal to feel uneasy when you are pushed out of your comfort zone but the real learning happens then only. Am sure there will be others around you whom you can approach for help or look at online options since nowadays everything is available on online platforms.
But just stressing/quitting won't help. We take inspiration from our tough battles fought well regardless of outcomes.
Feel free to ask anything further/specific.
All the Best!!
