No Salt, No Oil, No Alcohol

190/120 - that was Omar's BP yesterday. He's been complaining for headaches for the past few days.

We went to his doctor for his check-up. Omar had his tests done in the morning before going to his doctor. His scores were too high, he'd be a summa cum laude if it could have been school grades.

He has high cholesterol, scoring 7 with 4 as normal. His doctor cannot give him medicines to help bring down his cholesterol since his sgpt was 107 where 30+ is normal. And the side effect of medicines for cholesterol will hit his liver and will worsen his sgpt. He was prescribed strict diet to bring down his cholesterol level - no salt and no oil. And no alcohol to bring down his sgpt. He was also given medicines for his hypertension.

So we're back to Omar's diet 2years ago. Oatmeal without milk, no sugar, no salt for breakfast, vegetable salad with vinegar dressing for lunch, and inihaw na fish without salt for dinner. Wawa naman Omar.
