Answered on 10th Feb '25
There are no safe medications to enhance speed, focus on proper training, nutrition, and hydration. Adequate rest is also vital for peak performance. Consider incorporating strength training, flexibility exercises, and interval workouts into your routine. If you experience persistent fatigue or aches, consult a physician for tailored advice.

I'm a vegetarian and recently started feeling dizzy and fatigued. Could this be due to a deficiency, and what foods should I focus on to prevent this?
Male | 26
Feeling dizzy and tired as a vegetarian might be due to a lack of minerals like iron, protein, or vitamin B12. Signs include fatigue, pale skin, and trouble concentrating. Add more beans, lentils, leafy greens, nuts, seeds, and fortified cereals to your diet. These foods help provide the iron, B12, and protein you need to stay healthy.

Male | 21
Thid could be a result of several factors including a high metabolism, the body being unable to take in enough nutrients, health issues e.g. thyroid disorders, or your DNA. You should add some healthy foods containing good fats and protein to your diet. Consult a nutritionist who will advise you on the proper solution.

i’m 16 years old, and trying to lose weight. however, for some reason i keep feeling extra hungry even after i’ve eaten. my family cook good balanced meals so i don’t think it’s because of my nutritional intake. i’ve been struggling with this for a long time. it also causes me to get really tired. if i fulfill my needs to eat, i end up overeating and eventually feel sick. what is wrong with me and how can i treat it?
Female | 16
These might be the preceding dysfunctions of blood sugar level change or the probable hormone irregularities. To aid you, strive to eat smaller, more frequent meals which would keep you steady. Adapted approaches to a higher protein and fiber intake might help you feel satisfied for longer. You can also consult a dietician proper treatment plan.

Male | 13
It's good that you're staying active and trying to maintain a healthy diet. Protein supplements like Protein X can help with muscle mass and strength building, but should not replace a balanced diet. As a growing teenager, it's important to focus on whole foods. Please consult with a pediatrician or a nutritionist to ensure you are meeting your nutritional needs safely.

Aapka bhukh na lagna aur wazan kam hona kuch samasyaon ki nishaani ho sakta hai. Yeh stress, anxiety, ya kisi medical condition se ho sakta hai. Aapko apne diet par dhyan dena chahiye, nutritious khane ka prayas karein, jaise fruits, vegetables, aur proteins. Hydration bhi zaroori hai, isliye paani piyein. Agar aapko yeh samasya lagatar mehsoos ho rahi hai, to ek doctor se milna behtar hoga, taaki wo sahi jaanch kar sakein aur behtar upchaar de sakein.

I'm a 45-year-old male and have noticed that my metabolism has slowed down. What dietary changes can I make to boost my metabolism and maintain a healthy weight?
Male | 45
Metabolism that becomes slow with age is a common process. The elderly people who might show signs of this need to observe slow metabolism using devices for weight gain, are tired and have been finding it hard to lose weight are the most affected individuals. Incorporation of a diet that is well-balanced with a lot of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein can be great for the metabolism. You should limit the intake of sugary foods and drinks and keep portion sizes under control.

Hi! I have started taking a vitamin C/Zinc immune supplement for the winter. It has 270 mg of vitamin C, and 15 mg of zinc. I am also taking biotin. Does this interfere with Nexplanon?
Female | 37
The conceivable side effects of the implant include lessened bleeding, mood swings, or headaches, but those are not most often vitamins or nutritional supplements. Biotin intake, too, would not influence Nexplanon in all likelihood. Nevertheless, reactions may be different in different people. Should you have any specific concerns or feel some symptoms that are not common, it is better to see your healthcare professional.

i am 17 years old and i was found as a pcos person in my 12 years of age and now i am having regular periods from 4 to 5 months but i want to know about the diet plan which i can include in my daily task and exercise as well espicially for hair
Female | 17
In terms of diet for PCOS and hair, try to include a balanced diet made up of a lot of fruits, green vegetables, and whole grains in your meal. Avoid sugar and junk food in your diet. Regular physical activities also assist with PCOS symptoms. On the other hand, for your hair, you should eat a balanced diet with adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals, especially biotin, which is found in nuts and legumes, such as lentils, zinc in chicken and sardines, and iron in red meat and spinach. Remember, drinking enough water is also important.

I'm 21 year old & I have 76 kg weight . I want to burn all the fat of body.is water fast is good idea ? & Give your suggestions & tips for diet.
Male | 21
Wanting to improve health by reducing fat is great. Water fasting, where only water is consumed and food is avoided, can be unsafe, particularly for extended periods. This could lead to exhaustion, dizziness, and other health concerns. A balanced approach with fruits, veggies, whole grains, and lean proteins is wiser. Regular exercise like walking or swimming also helps. This enables healthy fat loss.

I've recently started working night shifts and find it hard to maintain a healthy eating routine. Can you suggest some meal planning tips and healthy snacks for someone with an irregular schedule?
Male | 26
Swimming at night can affect your eating habits, leading to drowsiness and poor health. To stay fit, plan your meals for the day or week in advance. Include a balance of proteins, fiber, and fats from natural foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains. Planning meals helps you avoid unhealthy choices at odd times. Keep easy and tasty snacks like yogurt with nuts or cut-up vegetables handy. Drink water and try to avoid sugary drinks to stay hydrated.

B12 and folate deficiency treatment
Male | 22
Vitamin B12 and folate insufficiencies often show up with symptoms like tiredness, weakness, and some neurological troubles. Insufficient diet, some medical issues, and absorption barriers are some basic contributors. To overcome these deficits, one has to take B12-rich foods like meat, milk, and cereal that have been fortified, and also folate-rich foods such as green vegetables, beans, and oranges. Sometimes, they have to apply supplements. I suggest you visit a nurse/physician for your assessment and counseling because they will be the ones who can tell you what to do.

The fact that your son is tired easily might mean that he is not eating enough healthy food. The energy gap can be filled by the consumption of carbohydrates such as the wholes grain, fruits or vegetables. The musky struggle situation from the point of view of proteins found in foodstuffs such as lean meats, fish, and beans which are good for the muscles. Now and then, sleep might be the reason behind it if the son doesn't feel well so be a good advice-giver and teach your child the importance of resting well too.

Hi good day . I would like to ask if aspartame is safe?
Female | 25
Aspartame is a sweetener that is usually considered risk-free for most people as long as it is taken in moderate amounts. A few people may react to aspartame and have symptoms like headaches, dizziness, or digestive issues, but these occurrences are rare. If you experience any abnormal symptoms after eating products with aspartame, reduce your intake or switch to alternatives.

Hi yesterday I purchased multivitamin tablets from optum nutrition so my question is I won't do any kind of workout currently can I consume the tablet everyday
Male | 33
Many vitamins and minerals that your body needs for general health can be obtained from these supplements that fill the nutritional gaps. Even though physical activity may be beneficial to individuals, the latter can be also said. A good nutrient supply is necessary for the energy levels, immune function, and mood. But make sure to take the recommended dose. If you face any non-typical symptoms, or in the case of any other health disorders, it would be wise to get a consultation with your dietician asking for advice personally.

You are facing an issue with putting on muscle mass, although you follow a good diet. It is worth mentioning that this could also be a consequence of poor digestion. Having symptoms such as a tendency to have loose stools often could be a sign of digestive problems. Seeing a doctor's advice is a must. Including more easily Digestible foods such as bananas, rice, and toast will be helpful. Besides, taking in enough water can be effective in digestion.

I'm only a teenager. Is it okay for me to take tianshi slimming tea
Female | 16
The effects of some slimming teas can be strong for our bodies. These teas mainly get rid of our weight by causing us to be less bathroom-bound. Therefore, dehydration, diarrhea, and stomach pain as well as heart issues may occur. It's essential to be cautious with such teas, especially at your age. You should rather go for healthy eating and exercise as a means of weight management.

Chiken pox treatment and diet
Male | 25
Chickenpox, a super contagious viral illness, leads to yucky, itchy red spots appearing everywhere. It easily spreads through sneezes or contact with fluid-filled blisters. Symptoms are feeling hot and icky, complete exhaustion, and not wanting any food. To ease terrible itching, slather on soothing calamine lotion. Drink tons of liquids and nibble soft foods since throat soreness makes swallowing difficult. Rest up and resist scratching those spots to prevent ugly scars.
