An HBA1c of 6.5 to 6.7% places you at the threshold between prediabetes and diabetes. While it might not require immediate medication, it’s a good time to assess your lifestyle and make some necessary adjustments, while consulting with a healthcare provider for regular monitoring and guidance. Keep in mind that it’s important to have a personalized approach, as each body’s needs can vary significantly.

Ayurvedically speaking, your condition may be influenced by imbalances in your doshas, likely kapha and vata. A sluggish metabolism or weak agni might be contributing to maintaining those HBA1c levels. Here’s what you may consider working on:

1. Diet: Favor foods that are light and easy to digest. Opt for whole grains like barley and millet, non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, and guards. Fruits like apples and berries are beneficial in moderation. Avoid sugary foods, processed snacks, and limit dairy.

2. Herbal Support: You might benefit from including herbs like fenugreek (methi) or bitter gourd (karela). They can be integrated through meals or as herbal teas to help maintain blood sugar levels.

3. Physical Activity: Regular, gentle exercises such as yoga or walking daily can help stabilize blood sugar levels. Aim for 30 minutes a day, adapting to what your body comfortly allows.

Regarding the uric acid and the pain, it could relate to vata imbalance leading to joint or heel discomfort. Here are some suggestions:

1. Dietary Adjustments: Reduce purine-rich foods like red meat and certain seafood which can influence uric acid levels. Stay hydrated to support kidney function.

2. Pain Management: You might try warm sesame oil massages on the affected areas to alleviate discomfort. Gently massaging can help ease the pain and improve circulation.

3. Herbal Remedies: Gokshura and Guduchi are two herbs that may support joint health and regulate uric acid levels, often beneficial when taken in consultation with a professional.

Continue to monitor your health alongside any ayurvedic approach you opt for. As a priority, regular check-ups with your healthcare provider can ensure you manage your health safely, whether you need medications or further interventions.
