Thank you so much Ladies & Guys for the kind words..

And you guys are right, It pays off when you really put hard work into the exercise regiment.

From 5 times of Badminton a week (Monday, Tuesday, Wed, Friday, Sat and sometimes Sunday), 2 to 3 times Gym (Monday, Wed and Friday) really pays it off.

But I been eating out a lot the past 3 months... Mostly out... No time to cook because of my badminton training and Gym.. But I tried not to eat rice or noodles or carbs (someday i eat a meal of carbs and it shoots up.. so, just meat and Veggies..


I guess now maybe less 1 or 2 exercise and cook more home....


Guys, i have a Question:

My Urea acid seems to be going a bit above normal level, Is it because I eat too much beef or protein?

Have you had any episodes of gout?

Yes, foods high in purines can cause elevated uric acid.
According to the American Medical Association, purine-containing foods include:

• Beer, other alcoholic beverages
• Anchovies, sardines in oil, fish roes, herring
• Yeast
• Organ meat (liver, kidneys, sweetbreads)
• Legumes (dried beans, peas)
• Meat extracts, consomme, gravies
• Mushrooms, spinach, asparagus, cauliflower
• Excessive amounts of beef & poultry

No, not at all. My family dont have history of it.. (at least 1 lucky thing)

That explains it Shanny... Mushrooms, cauliflower, beef & poultry..

Does Krill Oil and Tofu or Bean Curd Raise Uric acid????
