I am 22 years old with a body weight of 48 kg would like to gain extra weight what can I do. Which tablet can I take? My friend told me to take vitamin B12 what's your take on that and which one can I take for weight gain?
Female | 22
B12 vitamin acts mainly as an energizer and metabolism booster it is not a weight gain medicine. Gaining weight requires eating more calories mainly from healthy fats and proteins. Fruits like avocados and nuts along with lean meats are preferable. Consult a dietitian for an individualized plan for healthy weight gain.

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.

Face ko mota karne ke liye kuchh syrup.ya medicine
Female | 24
To add fat to your face, it's important to first understand why it might be thin. Some believe that eating healthy food means the face won't lack fat, but that's not always true. Focus on proteins like eggs, lean meats, and beans. You can also try facial exercises like puffing your cheeks or chewing gum to strengthen your muscles and make your face appear fuller. However, it's always a good idea to check with a dietitian before making changes to your diet or exercise routine.

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 recovering from surgery and want to support my healing process with proper nutrition. What foods should I focus on to aid in recovery?
Male | 36
For your body to heal faster, you should eat more protein, such as chicken, fish, eggs, and beans. Protein is what helps to build and repair the tissues in your body. Eating vegetables and fruits will provide you with the necessary vitamins and minerals that help you get better. Moreover, drink enough water to avoid dehydration. These are the food sources that will provide your body the nutrients it needs to heal and recover.

I often feel tired and sluggish during the day. Could my diet be the reason for this, and what foods can help boost my energy levels?
Female | 34
Feeling exhausted and reluctant to do anything can be draining. The foods we eat can help us feel more energetic throughout the day. Consuming too much sugary or processed food can leave you feeling low on energy. However, the opposite happens if you eat the right kinds of food. Foods that boost your energy include fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and proteins.

I need gestational diebetic diet plan...
Female | 31
Gestational diabetes occurs when your body struggles to process sugar during pregnancy. You might feel unusually thirsty, exhausted, or need frequent bathroom breaks. These signs happen because your cells can't use sugar efficiently. Eating nutritious foods like vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and lean proteins helps regulate blood glucose levels. Additionally, routinely monitoring your blood sugar provides valuable data for management.

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.

Not been able to eat properly since last couple of weeks. Have been losing weight significantly. Currently at 66 kg with 182cm height. Guessing poor metabolism and a slight constipation could be the cause.
Male | 25
Seems to me like you're having a problem with food and weight loss. Some possible options could be that your body is not properly digesting food which can lead to weight loss and constipation. Instead of eating large meals, try to have smaller meals more often and add plenty of fiber-rich foods such as fruits and vegetables to your diet. Besides drinking a lot of water, being active can also enhance your metabolism. See a dietitian if the situation doesn't improve.

I have PCOD problem, I have gallstone problem. I have excess weight. I have high cholesterol. What should be diet plan for me
Female | 31
First, PCOD, which causes irregular periods, acne, and weight gain. Eating a balanced diet with lots of fruits, veggies, whole grains, and lean proteins can help manage it. Next up, gallstones. These can cause abdominal pain after fatty foods. Limiting greasy, fatty foods in your diet is advisable. Excess weight puts strain on your body, worsening PCOD and gallstones. Eating smaller portions and staying active aids weight loss. High cholesterol can lead to heart problems too. Reducing saturated fats from butter, red meat, fried foods helps lower cholesterol. Instead, opt for healthier fats like nuts, seeds, olive oil. Making these dietary changes positively impacts your health.

Patient is recovering from chemo. Need guidance on recovery diet
Male | 62
Diet during chemotherapy should include high protein (source of protein is different for vegetarians & non-vegetarians). Fluid intake should be around 2.5-3 liters per day.
The overall diet should be a balanced one which include all types of vegetables, fruits, dairy products, grains, cereals.
Meals can be divided into small portions consumed every 2-3 hrs.
Avoid roadside prepared, fried, spicy and old foods.
Meals should be prepared fresh and be consumed on the same day.

Is there any problem eating chicken daily as boiled as for source of protein after the gynocomastia surgery
Male | 21
One can eat chicken daily after getting surgery for gynecomastia with no problems. For example, chicken is high in protein which is useful for the healing process of your body. However, it is to be eaten only after it has been boiled to keep the chicken healthy. The occurrence of any swelling or pain in the chest indicates a problem. If so, let your doctor know as soon as possible so that they can assist you.

My 16-year-old daughter wants to go on a diet to lose weight, but I'm concerned about her doing it healthily. What advice can I give her to ensure she's making safe and balanced choices?
Female | 38
I understand your concern about your daughter wanting to be on a diet to lose weight. She needs to be healthy while doing this. Skipping meals or eating very little can lead to feeling tired, dizzy, or weak. Instead of that, suggest to her to eat balanced meals with the help of eating lots of fruits, veggies, whole grains, and lean proteins. Also, she has to be active, so a dietician or her doctor can help her to make a plan that's right for her

I have a bmi of 52.0, I am 17, is it safe for me to go on a 800-900 calorie a day diet if I take a multivitamin and the proper vitamin supplements? If so, for how long would it be safe?
Female | 17
Your BMI at the age of 52.0 is very high for you. Only 800-900 calories of food a day can be dangerous and can cause serious health problems like fatigue, nutrient deficiencies, and muscle loss. It is not safe to even keep your calories so low. On the contrary, concentrate on developing good habits such as consuming balanced meals and exercising regularly. If you are thinking of bringing changes to your diet, it is good to consult a doctor or dietitian to create a safe and effective plan for weight loss.
