Question: I recently had a full-body health check-up, and some metrics were outside the expected range. I couldn't upload the PDF here, so I'm pasting the out-of-range metrics below. I would like to know the necessary precautions and the foods that can help improve these values.

REDBLOODCELL(RBC)COUNT 6.25 High
HEMATOCRIT (PCV) 54.8 High
MEAN CORPUSCULAR HEMOGLOBIN (MCH) 25.3 Low
MEAN CORPUSCULAR HEMOGLOBIN CONCENTRATION (MCHC) 28.8 Low
LYMPHOCYTES 47 High
ALBUMIN 5.0 High
LACTATE DEHYDROGENASE 241 High
CHOL/HDL RATIO 3.2 Low
TSH (ULTRASENSITIVE) 4.410 High
25 - HYDROXYVITAMIN D 22.9 Low

About me: I exercise regularly and follow a high-protein diet. I also consume a high amount of calories and fats as part of my weight gain diet.

Brief Answer:
Most of them are near normal

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome here,

REDBLOODCELL(RBC)COUNT 6.25 High
HEMATOCRIT (PCV) 54.8 High
These two parameters are not of much concern, these could be high due to low water intake, smoking, alcohol, or living in the hills

MEAN CORPUSCULAR HEMOGLOBIN (MCH) 25.3 Low
MEAN CORPUSCULAR HEMOGLOBIN CONCENTRATION (MCHC) 28.8 Low
These two parameters can be low due to low availability of hemoglobin for each RBC, means there could be some anemia but your hemoglobin is normal so nothing much to be worried

LYMPHOCYTES 47 High
Could be due to some infection

ALBUMIN 5.0 High
This could be high due to high protein diet. So you need to take normal levels of protein in your diet. It may affect the kidneys

LACTATE DEHYDROGENASE 241 High
LDH can be high in alcohol intake. or other liver issues. But it is only slightly high. or upper levels of normal range.

CHOL/HDL RATIO 3.2 Low
Not of worry

TSH (ULTRASENSITIVE) 4.410 High
Currently not of worry. You may repeat the test after few months.

25 - HYDROXYVITAMIN D 22.9 Low
This is only slightly low. You may take Arachitol nano shots once every two weeks for 2 months.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr Vaishalee
