Can I improve digestion, appetite & gain weight at 23?

I am 23 yo, being underweight since many years, very bad digestive system and appetite

Answered on 4th Oct '24

Irritants like such symptoms might result from problems such as stomach issues or dietary habits. Eating small and frequent meals and snacks that are high in nutrients can be a good way to improve your appetite. Keep in mind to drink enough water and try to figure out any foods that might be causing your digestive problems. If these adjustments don't work, think about talking to a dietitian for more tests and advice.

I am 19 years old . I am completely fine I have no diseases but I am unable to gain weight from last 4/ 5 years . At first I have proper weight but now I am only 38 kg , I feel very under confident due to less weight . What can I do for weight gain and also I want to ask can I use livcon and assicon syrup as many people recommended this .

Female | 19

Being underweight can be due to factors like metabolism, insufficient calorie intake, or certain health conditions. To gain weight, focus on a diet that includes adequate protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates. Include fruits, vegetables, and protein sources like chicken, fish, or beans. Additionally, doing strength training exercises can help increase muscle mass. Livcon and Assicon syrups are not typically prescribed for weight gain, so it’s best to consult a doctor before starting any new medication. Your health and wellness should be a priority, so eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly to gain weight healthily.

My 70-year-old mother has osteoporosis. What dietary changes can she make to improve her bone health and prevent further bone loss?

Female | 70

To help your mom's osteoporosis, eat foods with calcium and Vitamin D, such as milk products, leafy vegetables, and fish. The consumption of such nutrients strengthens bones. Steer clear of caffeinated drinks and alcoholic drinks, as they will harm your bones. Consistent exercise, for example, walking and lifting light weights, can keep a good level of bone health. A healthy diet and sufficient activity are not possible without which our bones will be much weaker.

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.

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.

Female | 23

It's important to know the cause of you being underweight. It may be a result of you not eating enough or a medical problem. A doctor can assist you in determining the reason. Try to eat more high-calorie foods such as nuts, avocados, and cheese. Additionally, strength training exercises can be a way to achieve muscle mass. Also, ensure that you are hydrated and sleep well enough.

How much sucralose % used in plant protein powder by companies? And it is safe or not.

Male | 27

Sucralose is frequently added to plant-based protein powders in the form of small amounts in order to make it taste sweeter and not cause any extra calories. Previously conducted research has shown that sucralose can be a safe option for most people if its use is not abused. On the contrary, there are few people who might undergo digestive discomforts such as bloating, and gas when sucralose is consumed. In case you notice any weird symptoms after taking in such products, the wisest move is to lower the dose and to see a doctor.

Male | 25

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.

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.
