How long can I safely take magnesium tablets?

I am a 12 year old boy, how long can I take magnesium effervescent tablets?

Answered on 1st Oct '24

Magnesium effervescent tablets are healthy, but make sure you don't take them longer than prescribed without consulting a doctor first. Overusing them might give you time to get sicker. Proper magnesium intake aids in the normal functioning of the body, but it is wiser to seek advice from an elder if you plan to use them for a long time.

I've heard a lot about the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. What are some good dietary sources of omega-3s, and how much should I be consuming daily?

Female | 28

Dietary food sources of omega 3 fatty acids are : Flaxseeds, chia seeds, egg yolks, salmon (Indian rawas) , mackerel (Bangda). But as a therapeutic diet expert, I would always recommend taking omega 3 fish oil supplement. Daily requirement is 1g which means you will have to take 3 capsules to get your requirement fulfilled. For people who have lot of inflammation, diabetes, arthritis, thyroid or any infection in the body, the requirement can increase upto 2000 (6 capsules) to 3000 mg (9 capsules) of omega 3 to reach 50% of the optimal range. My everytime and best brand : Nutrilite Salmon Omega 3 capsules. ✅

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 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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Can we take plant protein and probiotics capsules together?

Male | 27

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.
