Your condition suggests a mild imbalance in Pitta and Rakta dhatu. Heavy, heating foods—especially excess red meat—may aggravate this. Prefer a light, balanced diet with easily digestible proteins like lentils, occasional lean meat if needed, and plenty of vegetables. Stay well-hydrated and avoid overly spicy, oily, or processed foods. –your reports don’t show a major problem. Slightly high testosterone, SHBG, RBC, and bilirubin can be normal variations if other values are fine. You can eat meat in moderation, preferably lean sources like chicken or fish. Avoid excess red or processed meat, stay well-hydrated, and keep a balanced diet. Just monitor your labs periodically. –Dx: Pitta–Rakta dushti (mild) -Aahar: Laghu, sheetal diet; avoid spicy, oily, excess red meat & alcohol. Lean meat occasionally -Aushadhi: 1) Guduchi satva – 500 mg BD 2) Amla churna – 3 g BD after meals 3) Bhumyamalaki churna – 3 g BD 4) tab trifla 1 tab at night —Anupana: Lukewarm water —Follow-up: After 4 weeks – tell about your symptoms also facing so better for treatment

Your picture suggests pitta–rakta aggravation with mild hormonal imbalance (high SHBG/testosterone, borderline bilirubin) Meat intake Avoid or keep minimal, especially red meat, fried, spicy If needed, take small quantity of light meat (fish/chicken) occasionally, not daily Short Ayurvedic treatment and dose: Guduchi (Giloy) Satva 500 mg, twice daily on empty stomach Shatavari Churna 1 teaspoon, twice daily with milk (helps balance hormones, reduce heat) Avipattikar Churna ½–1 teaspoon at night with warm water Punarnava Mandur 1 tablet, twice daily after meals (supports liver, rakta balance) Diet Prefer vegetarian, cooling foods: rice, moong dal, ghee, vegetables Avoid alcohol, excess protein, gym overexertion

Slightly high SHBG and testosterone with mildly elevated RBCs can sometimes be linked to diet, stress, intense exercise, metabolism, dehydration, or hormonal imbalance. In Ayurveda, this may reflect a Pitta-Vata aggravation affecting Rakta dhatu (blood tissue) and hormonal balance. About Eating Meat You may eat meat in moderation if it suits your digestion, but avoid: Excess red meat Processed meats Very spicy, oily, or heavily grilled foods Prefer: Light, freshly cooked meals Fish or lean meats occasionally Plenty of vegetables, pomegranate, amla, cucumber, and adequate hydration Ayurvedic Support Maintain regular sleep and reduce stress. Avoid overheating the body (excess gym strain, alcohol, smoking). Cooling herbs traditionally used for balance include: Amla Guduchi Shatavari (if suitable constitutionally)
