The “Three Highs” generally refer to high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and high blood lipids/cholesterol.

For many people in Hong Kong, the hardest part about managing the Three Highs is not that they do not know they should “eat healthier.” The real challenge is that everyday life makes it difficult to avoid:

🍚 Rice
🍜 Noodles
🍖 Roast meats
🥡 Takeaway meals
🧋 Milk tea
🍰 Desserts
🍲 Hotpot
🥂 Social meals and gatherings

Especially if you are busy at work and eat out often, you usually have very little control over how much oil, sugar or salt restaurants use.

So for people with the Three Highs, the goal is not to suddenly switch to a “zero sugar, zero oil, zero salt” diet.

What matters more is knowing:

What to cut down on, how to adjust portions, how to make better choices when eating out, and how supplements can fit into your daily diet.

Products such as Dr. Serum Silk Fibroin Jelly, which are designed for pre-meal dietary and weight management, can be taken before regular meals as part of daily fat, sugar and weight management.

1｜The 3 Most Common Dietary Issues for People with the Three Highs

Although the Three Highs are often discussed together, the dietary priorities for each one are not exactly the same.

High Blood Sugar: It’s Not Just About Cutting Desserts

When people think about blood sugar, the first thing that often comes to mind is:

“Stop eating sugar.”

But everyday foods such as rice, noodles, rice noodles, bread and potatoes are also sources of carbohydrates.

If breakfast is bread with milk tea, lunch comes with a large bowl of rice, the afternoon includes a sweet drink, and dinner includes another serving of rice, the total carbohydrate intake can add up even if you do not eat cake.

A more practical approach is:

Vegetables + protein + a moderate portion of carbohydrates

For example, instead of a large bowl of rice, reduce it to a moderate portion and cut down on sweet drinks.

High Blood Pressure: Watch Out for Hidden Sodium

The sodium that is easiest to overconsume does not always come from the salt you add at home.

It often comes from:

• Soy sauce
• Oyster sauce
• Thick sauces and gravies
• Soup bases
• Luncheon meat
• Sausages
• Processed meatballs
• Pickled foods
• Instant noodle seasoning packets

So when eating out, you can start with:

Less sauce, fewer processed foods, and less concentrated soup.

High Cholesterol / High Blood Lipids: Don’t Focus Only on Eggs

If your daily diet regularly includes:

🍗 Fried foods
🍖 Fatty meats
🥐 Pastries
🍟 French fries
🍜 Fried noodles
🥓 Processed meats

then your overall fat intake can easily become high.

Instead of cutting out only one type of food, it is more practical to reduce how often fried, oily and heavily processed foods appear in your diet.

2｜For Hong Kong Diners, Start with “Less Rice, Less Sauce, More Vegetables”

People with the Three Highs do not necessarily need to prepare every meal at home.

A more practical approach is learning how to adjust your choices in common Hong Kong eating-out situations.

Cha Chaan Teng

Instead of:

Stir-fried rice noodles + iced milk tea

Try:

Soup noodles + extra vegetables + unsweetened tea

Roast Meat Rice

Instead of:

Double roast meat + large rice + lots of roast meat sauce

Try:

Single roast meat + moderate rice + vegetables + less sauce

Two-Dish Rice

Try to prioritise:

One vegetable dish + one protein dish

For example, vegetables with chicken, fish or tofu.

Compared with choosing two dishes that are both fried, curry-based or covered in thick sauce, this makes it easier to manage the amount of fat and sodium in the meal.

Hotpot

You do not necessarily have to avoid hotpot, but you can pay attention to:

• Fewer processed meatballs
• Less soup
• Lighter dipping sauces
• More vegetables and tofu
• Do not let fatty beef and fried foods become the main focus

Sweet Drinks

Milk tea, soft drinks, fruit juice and hand-shaken drinks can gradually go from “every day” to “occasionally.”

Managing the Three Highs does not mean every meal has to be perfect.

Making each meal slightly better than before is often easier to maintain long term.

3｜What Supplements Are Commonly Considered for the Three Highs?

If you have already started improving your diet and want to add supplements, first think about which area you most want to manage.

Dietary Fibre

You can first increase fibre through foods such as:

• Oats
• Beans
• Vegetables
• Fruit
• Whole grains

If you eat out often and do not get many vegetables in your diet, some people may also consider additional dietary fibre supplements.

Omega-3

Fish oil / Omega-3 is one of the supplement categories commonly considered by people who are paying attention to blood lipids.

Plant Sterols

Some cholesterol-management products contain plant sterols and are mainly positioned around dietary cholesterol management.

If LDL or cholesterol is your main concern, this is one category you may come across.

Pre-Meal Fat and Sugar Management

If your biggest everyday challenges are:

🍚 Lots of rice and noodles
🍰 Frequent desserts
🥡 Eating out often
🍖 Oily meals

then a pre-meal fat and sugar management product may fit more naturally into your daily routine.

This is the direction of Dr. Serum Silk Fibroin Jelly.

It is positioned as a pre-meal dietary and weight management Jelly for normal eating routines, rather than as a meal replacement or weight-loss drug.

4｜How Can Dr. Serum Fit into a Daily Routine for the Three Highs?

The core ingredient in Dr. Serum Silk Fibroin Jelly is:

Silk Fibroin

Silk Fibroin has a fine, porous, mesh-like structure.

In simple terms, you can think of it as a fine:

“Net / sponge-like structure”

The product uses this structure based on the concept of physically adsorbing part of the fats and sugars in food, so it can be used before meals as part of daily dietary management.

In simple terms:

Take Dr. Serum Jelly before a meal
↓
Silk Fibroin’s porous / mesh-like structure
↓
Concept of physically adsorbing part of the fats and sugars
↓
Supports daily fat, sugar and weight management

The usual way to take it is:

• 1 sachet before breakfast
• 1 sachet before lunch
• 1 sachet before dinner

That means 3 sachets per day.

Each sachet is individually packed, ready to eat and does not need to be mixed with water.

For Hong Kong people who often eat at cha chaan tengs, order takeaway, eat plenty of rice or noodles, enjoy desserts, and cannot always control how food is cooked, this pre-meal format can be easier to fit into everyday life.

Dr. Serum is not a meal replacement, laxative or appetite suppressant, so there is no need to switch to extreme dieting just because you add Jelly to your routine.

A better way to understand it is:

One extra dietary management step before your normal meal.

5｜What Can a Day of Eating Look Like? A Simple Routine Is Enough

People with the Three Highs do not need to eat plain boiled vegetables at every meal.

A more realistic approach is to keep your daily meal structure simple and consistent.

Breakfast

Eggs / unsweetened soy milk
＋
Oats / wholemeal bread
＋
Unsweetened drink

If you are adding Dr. Serum:

1 sachet before the meal

Lunch

Moderate portion of rice
＋
Vegetables
＋
Fish / chicken / lean meat / tofu
＋
Less sauce

Before the meal:

1 sachet of Dr. Serum

If You Get Hungry in the Afternoon

You can choose:

• Fruit
• Unsweetened yoghurt
• A small amount of nuts
• Unsweetened soy milk

This is easier to manage than having milk tea and cake every day.

Dinner

Vegetables
＋
Protein
＋
A moderate portion of rice
＋
Fewer processed foods

Before the meal:

1 sachet of Dr. Serum

If you normally sit down immediately after dinner, you can also add:

10–20 minutes of walking

It does not have to be complicated.

For long-term management of the Three Highs, what matters is not how “perfect” one meal is.

It is:

Whether you can maintain the routine on most days.

FAQ for People Managing the Three Highs

Do I Have to Completely Avoid Oil, Sugar and Salt?

No.

What matters more is the amount, frequency and overall balance of your diet.

Do People with the Three Highs Have to Stop Eating White Rice?

Not necessarily.

You can start by reducing the portion, combining it with vegetables and protein, and cutting down on sweet drinks and desserts.

Dr. Serum can be used as part of daily pre-meal dietary management, with a focus on fat, sugar intake and weight management.

Is Dr. Serum a Medication for the Three Highs?

No.

If I Take Supplements, Can I Still Eat Fried Foods and Desserts as Usual?

Pre-meal management does not mean you can ignore portions and food choices afterward.

A better approach is:

Pre-meal management + better food choices + portion control

working together.

Conclusion: What People with the Three Highs Really Need to Change Is Their Long-Term Eating Pattern

If you have:

High blood sugar + high blood pressure + high cholesterol / blood lipids

the goal is not to suddenly switch to:

Zero sugar, zero oil, zero salt and zero rice.

That is usually too extreme to maintain.

A more practical approach is:

✅ Control portions of rice and noodles
✅ Drink milk tea, soft drinks and hand-shaken drinks less often
✅ Eat fewer fried foods, fatty meats and pastries
✅ Cut down on thick sauces, processed meats and salty soup bases
✅ Add more vegetables and protein to each meal
✅ When eating out, choose less rice, less sauce and more vegetables
✅ Add more movement after meals
✅ Use suitable supplements when needed

And Dr. Serum Silk Fibroin Jelly can be taken before your three daily meals as one part of your pre-meal dietary management routine.

Silk Fibroin has a porous, mesh-like structure, and the product is based on the concept of physically adsorbing part of the fats and sugars in food as part of everyday dietary management.

For Hong Kong people who eat out often, eat plenty of rice and noodles, enjoy desserts, and cannot completely avoid oily foods, instead of trying to change everything overnight:

Start with each meal, and gradually manage the amount of oil, sugar, salt and food you eat.

The value of managing the Three Highs is not about being extremely strict for a short period of time.

It is about:

Finding a routine you can genuinely maintain in the long run.
