Four years ago, I followed the keto diet for weight loss, and it stopped, and it caused me a relapse, lethargy, and laziness in a very stressful way. Until now, I get tired and feel exhausted for the least effort. Can I take a nutritional supplement that treats stress and laziness and boosts energy, and if I stop taking the supplement, it does not affect my energy again
Female | 37
You had difficulties following the keto diet routine. Tiredness and laziness indicated vitamin deficits and low energy supply. A B-complex vitamin could help. B vitamins aid energy creation and stress relief. They may energize your body and reduce exhaustion. However, consult a dietician before taking any supplements.

I recently had my gallbladder removed and have been experiencing digestive issues. What kind of diet should I follow to manage these symptoms?
Male | 37
Even after gallbladder surgery, diarrhea, bloating, or gas is a common problem. This happens because the gallbladder is one of the key players in the digestion of fats and without it, the body struggles with the digestion of fatty foods. Eating a low-fat diet is one way to lessen these symptoms. Try consuming more fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains. Avoid greasy, fried, and spicy foods as they can cause discomfort. Eating small, frequent meals throughout the day can also help. Your body might need some time to get used to the new condition, so have patience and monitor how it reacts to different foods.

Tsh value -27.5 mg and Sugar leval 449 . Need diet plan and foods to regulate.
Female | 55
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. Elevated sugars lead to excessive thirst and frequent urination. Diet changes can help regulate both conditions. Focus on veggies, fruits, and whole grains. Limit sugary foods and drinks. Water, herbal teas are better options. Regular physical activity aids management too.

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

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 heard that drinking lemon water in the morning can help with digestion and weight loss. Is there any truth to this, and are there any other simple dietary changes that can have a big impact on my health?
Male | 25
Lemon water is a good source of Vitamin C due to its citric acid content. This vitamin helps the body absorb iron more easily. Drinking lemon water can aid in weight loss by promoting hydration and reducing calorie intake. To shed extra pounds, try eating more fruits and vegetables, cutting back on sweetened beverages, and replacing refined grains with whole grains. These changes can improve your health, aid digestion, and help maintain a healthy weight.

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.
