Whenever you get up from bed, turn to one side preferable to your right and get up and plabe feet on the ground by the side of the bed. Feel the Earth move your toes and gently get up stand with feet apart at shoulder width and gently move your toes and the start your day.
Your biochemical markers are OK. Not to worry.
But try and have your dinner by 6 pm. Even if you are on medication try and keep your medicine schedule between 7 am and 7 pm
So they are also well balanced
