Is HbA1c 12.5 & fasting 270 with PP 303 very high sugar??

Ans: Yes. An HbA1c of 12.5% and fasting blood sugar of 270 mg/dl indicate poor blood sugar control. Similarly, a postprandial (after-meal) blood sugar level of 303 mg/dl is also high. It’s essential to consult with your family doctor to manage and address these elevated levels promptly.

Hi , My Hba1c is 6.5-6.6 but sugar fasting is 100-110 and PP is varying 120-145 . These results are in same range since 2years .what does it means ? what should be the diet plan ? how to reduce Hba1c ? whether i am a diabetic ?pl suggest

Ans: A normal level for an HbA1c is below 5.7%.. Your level is indicative of diabetes. Normal fasting blood sugar is less than 100 mg/dl and your range of 100-110 mg/dl which suggests prediabetes. Focus on a balanced diet rich in whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats, and plenty of vegetables. Limit refined sugars, processed foods, and high-calorie snacks. Monitor portion sizes and spread meals throughout the day. Regular exercise helps lower blood sugar levels. Discuss your results with a registered dietician or your family physician.

I m 58 yrs old. My fasting sugar remains at 70 while PP moves to 170 level. Is it ok?

Ans: Normal PP levels should be below 140 mg/dl 2 hours after a meal. The rise in post-meal blood sugar could be due to various factors, such as the type of food consumed, insulin resistance, or other health conditions. Consult your family physician to discuss these readings and any symptoms you may be experiencing. Lifestyle modifications (diet, exercise) and potential medication adjustments may be necessary.

For salaried professionals investing in equity, does this market crash affect the benefits of Section 80C investments, such as ULIPs or ELSS, which are tied to market performance?

Ans: Hello;

Anything and everything connected with the market will get affected by market volatility. (ULIPs & ELSS too)

However for investors it is like a grand new year sale.

Continue your regular investments and also do lumpsum, if possible, at every sharp decline.

Only those whose target horizon is near should withdraw their gains from equity funds. They can begin fresh investments for some other financial goal.

Tks a lot for the clear answers to my queries regarding transmission of shares. However, I would like some more clarification on custodial account for shares entitled to C. Custodial account for C will mean a brokerage account in name of C under guardianship of B or an account in name of B but under some category called as Custodial accounts? Alternatively, can the shares entitled for C be sold by B as C's legal guardian and then the sale proceeds be brought in India directly in a bank account in name of C under B's guardianship? Thanks in advance for the support.

Ans: A custodial account for shares typically means a brokerage account held in the name of the minor (C) but managed by the guardian (B). This allows the guardian to oversee the account and make investment decisions on behalf of the minor.
Alternatively, the shares entitled to C can indeed be sold by B as C's legal guardian. The proceeds from the sale can then be brought into India and deposited into a bank account in C's name, under B's guardianship. However, it's important to ensure that all legal requirements and permissions are met, especially if the shares are part of a larger estate or property.
Hope this helps.

Ans: Switching over to digital marketing is not recommended. For your parents you can't move out of the town. I appreciate your caring attitude for your parents, but at the same time unless you go to a big city you can't get a good break. Best of luck. Professor.................................:)
