What Happens When Uric Acid Increases in Your Body?
Uric acid, the most significant antioxidant present in human bodily fluids, is a critical waste product. Elevated uric levels can occur often due to impaired kidney function and the use of medications such as diuretics. In addition to kidney stones and chronic renal illness, excessive uric acid levels can result in other issues such as crystals forming in the joints, causing gout. Doctors advise having frequent medical check-ups including a blood test every six months, to help the doctor identify and diagnose any concerns.

Dr. Satish Kumar C R on Why cutting screen time on social media by half can restore a teen’s body image | The Indian Express
Why Cutting Screen Time on Social Media by Half Can Restore a Teen’s Body Image
Social media can expose users to hundreds or even thousands of images and photos every day, which leads to an internalization of beauty ideals that are unattainable for almost everyone. It can result in greater dissatisfaction with body weight and shape. Additionally, social media usage leads to an obsession with likes and comments, causing an upsurge in screen time and a drop in meaningful activities and interpersonal relationships. According to Dr Satish Kumar CR, Consultant, Clinical Psychology, Manipal Hospitals, reducing screen time by 50% can bring teens back to the actual world of perception, where body image is only one component and competence, personality, and skill are much more vital. This holistic view can influence a teen's sense of identity. Therefore, limiting mobile phone use in schools and households could assist teens in navigating a delicate period in their lives and setting genuine, rather than fictitious, priorities.
