Can I Combine Plant Protein with Probiotics Capsules?

Can we take plant protein and probiotics capsules together?

Answered on 9th Dec '24

It is safe to take the two simultaneously - the plant protein and the probiotics capsules. Plant protein assists in the muscle-building process while probiotics ensure proper gut health. The only rare case with this combination might be slight abdominal discomfort. If you are bloated or gassy, then it would be good if you could try taking them at different times. Also, drink a lot of water with both.

Can i take creatine and whey protein after getting tb

Male | 21

After contracting TB, it is important to be cautious if you are using creatine and whey protein. These supplements can put undue stress on your body, which is still in recovery. It is better to wait until you have made a full recovery and your doctor has given you clearance before integrating them into your meal plan. Focus on strengthening your body through natural foods rather than relying solely on supplements.

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.

How long we should use plant protein powder?

Male | 27

It's a good idea to use plant-based protein supplements, especially if you are trying to improve your diet or participate in fitness activities. For the most part, they can be safely integrated into the diet by trying them for some weeks or even for a couple of months. If you experience abdominal pain or bloating while consuming plant-based proteins, it is best to either decrease the amounts you are taking or change the protein sources.

Your TSH leve­l is high at 27.5 mg. Sugar level's also ele­vated - 449. These numbe­rs suggest thyroid issues might exist. Uncontrolle­d blood sugar too. High TSH causes fatigue, and weight gain.

My 8-year-old son is a very picky eater and refuses to eat vegetables. How can I ensure he's getting all the necessary nutrients?

Female | 36

Frequently, kids are selective eaters, but they need to satisfy the proper nutrition to grow up healthy and strong. If your son avoids vegetables, you can attempt to mix them with his favorite meals such as smoothies or pasta sauce. The choice of some fruits, grains, and various types of proteins like meat, eggs, and beans as opposed to only one product will be given to kids.

I'm feeling dizzy after eat

Male | 22

Dizziness after eating is a condition that can be caused by various factors. Sometimes it happens that your blood sugar levels fluctuate too fast right after you eat. In some cases, though, this might be low blood pressure. Besides rapid eating, some foods can cause dizziness. Try eating slowly, skipping meals if you can, and drinking enough water. If this is the case, you should see a doctor.

I've been trying to cut down on sugar, but I'm not sure what to use as a substitute. Are there any natural sweeteners that you recommend which won't spike my blood sugar levels?

Male | 29

It is good that you have decided to limit your sugar intake! Stevia, a natural sweetener that you can use, is one such option here. It is made from a plant and does not make your blood sugar levels to rise. You can also go for monk fruit sweetener, another good alternative. Try to control the sweetening and not overload your diet with sweet foods. Synthetic sweeteners are not a good choice, because they can cause harm to your health.

My toddler has severe food allergies. How can I ensure he gets a balanced diet while avoiding allergens, and what are some safe, nutritious alternatives?

Female | 33

A diet that is complete and free from allergens is essential. Milk, eggs, soy, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish are the most commonly found allergens. It is important to search for other alternatives that are safe and nutritious, such as fruit, vegetables, rice, quinoa, beans, and meats. A dietitian can support you in developing a customized meal plan to make sure your child gets all the necessary nutrients. It is also necessary to monitor the symptoms of rashes, stomachache, vomiting, and shortness of breath that might appear after consuming food. If you recognize any of these symptoms, the advice is to stop feeding them that food and to contact an allergist for further testing and evaluation.

I've been diagnosed with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and find it hard to manage my symptoms. What dietary modifications can help alleviate my discomfort?

Female | 37

IBS patients often experience a sour stomach, leading to symptoms like bloating, cramps, and changes in bowel habits. Certain foods can worsen these symptoms, such as dairy, spicy foods, caffeine, and artificial sweeteners. Eating small meals, drinking enough water, and avoiding trigger foods can help. Fiber-rich foods and probiotics may also be beneficial. Since everyone is different, keep a food diary to track what works best for you.

Hi, I've been experiencing frequent headaches and someone suggested it might be related to my diet. Are there certain foods that could be triggering my headaches?

Female | 27

There is no doubt that the food can be the trigger of headaches. Some usual suspects are processed meats, aged cheeses, beer, and foods with monosodium glutamate (MSG). These substances may have adverse effects on the blood vessels in the brain, which eventually lead to headaches. If you start to experience a headache you can add it to the diary. Once you identify a particular food item, you might want to eliminate it from your diet to see if the headaches get better.
