I have indirect bilirubin which is 0.95 which is slightly higher than mean level of 0 - 0.85. Other liver/kidney tests are normal. Have lower hdl at 27.5 and ldl at 135. Hence cholesterol ratio is higher. Leading a sedentary lifestyle. Is tamarind good for overall health with regard to maintaining cholesterol levels and liver function. I have symptoms of redness/ dryness in eyes also. Do I have fatty liver- as I am non alcoholic and do not smoke either. However have started walking since last month 4 times a week. Requested to guide me in this regard and with specific information about consumption of tamarind. Thanks.

The polyphenols in tamarind have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. These can protect against diseases such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes. The seed extract may also help lower blood sugar, while the pulp extract may help you lose body weight and reverse fatty liver diseases.
