Feeling tired, swollen, or losing weight without reason? It might not be just dietโ€”it could be low albumin. โš ๏ธ
๐Ÿ’ก What is albumin?
Itโ€™s a protein made by your liver that:
๐Ÿ”น Keeps fluid from leaking out of blood vessels
๐Ÿ”น Helps carry hormones & medications
๐Ÿ”น Supports healing
๐Ÿ‘‰ When albumin is low:
Your liver may not be producing enough (liver disease)
Your diet may lack protein & calories (malnutrition)
Chronic inflammation could be draining your reserves
Symptoms may include swelling in the legs, fatigue, or delayed wound healing.
โœ… The good news: With proper nutrition and liver care, low albumin can often be improved.
๐Ÿ“Œ Consult Dr. Saravana Kumar, Consultant Gastroenterologist & Hepatologist at ParkCity Medical Centre, for medical evaluationโ€”and work with a dietitian for personalised nutrition strategies.

Ever seen ALT or AST on your blood test and wondered what they mean? ๐Ÿค”
Hereโ€™s the difference:
๐Ÿ”น ALT (Alanine transaminase) โ†’ Found mostly in your liver. High ALT = more likely liver inflammation or damage.
๐Ÿ”น AST (Aspartate aminotransferase) โ†’ Found in liver and muscles, heart, and even brain. High AST doesnโ€™t always mean liver disease.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Rule of thumb:
ALT > AST โ†’ often points to hepatitis or liver inflammation
AST > ALT โ†’ could mean alcohol-related liver diseaseโ€”or even non-liver causes like muscle injury or heart problems
โš ๏ธ Donโ€™t jump to conclusions if your results are abnormal. Context mattersโ€”symptoms, history, and other tests all play a role.
๐Ÿ“Œ Consult Dr. Saravana Kumar, Consultant Gastroenterologist & Hepatologist at ParkCity Medical Centre, to make sense of your liver results and protect your health.

Your liver could be in troubleโ€ฆ and you might not feel a thing. โš ๏ธ
Thatโ€™s where Liver Function Tests (LFTs) come in. They reveal problems long before symptoms show.
Hereโ€™s what those markers mean โฌ‡๏ธ
๐Ÿ”น ALT & AST โ†’ show liver cell damage
๐Ÿ”น ALP โ†’ can signal bile duct issues
๐Ÿ”น Bilirubin โ†’ tells how well your liver clears waste
๐Ÿ”น Albumin โ†’ reflects your liverโ€™s protein-making ability
Together, they paint a full picture of your liver health.
๐Ÿšจ Even a slight abnormality is a red flagโ€”it could be an early sign of fatty liver, hepatitis, or other hidden problems. Donโ€™t brush it off.
๐Ÿ“Œ Consult Dr. Saravana Kumar, Consultant Gastroenterologist & Hepatologist at ParkCity Medical Centre, to understand your results and protect your liver before itโ€™s too late.

๐Ÿ’ก Did you know your toilet habits can make or break your gut health?
Hereโ€™s what to remember โฌ‡๏ธ
โŒ Donโ€™t strain โ€“ Pooping isnโ€™t weightlifting. Straining increases pressure and can cause hemorrhoids or fissures.
โŒ Donโ€™t delay the urge โ€“ Holding it in retrains your gut and worsens constipation.
โœ… Hydrate โ€“ Aim for 2L of water daily to keep things moving.
โœ… Fix your posture โ€“ A small stool to elevate your feet helps align your re**um for easier, strain-free poops.
๐Ÿšจ If pooping is painful, irregular, or always feels incompleteโ€”itโ€™s not โ€œnormal,โ€ and your gut might need more attention.
๐Ÿ“Œ Consult Dr. Saravana Kumar, Consultant Gastroenterologist & Hepatologist at ParkCity Medical Centre, for expert advice on constipation, piles, and gut health.
