A member asked:

What are some home remedies for high cholesterol , high uric acid and deficiency of vitamin d?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

There is none: The high uric acid is not an issue and will fall if the elevated cholesterol is properly treated. Diet and exercise have little effect on lipid levels despite the fact that many doctors try it first. If diet and exercise do not help, start a statin. It is easy to correct a low vitamin d level with vitamin d supplements.

Sunshine,Vit D, diet: The best home remedy for low D is spending time in the mid-day sun without sunscreen, but one can't get any D from sun in fall and winter so take at least 5000 iu of D3/day those months.Avoid foods high in uric acid- see https://familydoctor.org/low-purine-diet/ and try folic acid 5mg/day. High cholesterol is not always a problem! See https://tinyurl.com/ybph4vgr and https://tinyurl.com/yc3exfz5
