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.

Whenever I eat food less I start getting headache and I eat much ice and get pimples can u tell me what problem do u have
Female | 23
When you don't have enough food, your body may react with headaches. Overconsumption of ice might be a sign of a condition where your body doesn't have enough iron, and you have pimples. To help you get the best nutrition, ensure your meals are balanced, and your diet is well-rounded. If this does not work, a good idea would be to visit a dietitian for advice.

What are the supplements to take for my deficiency? What should I avoid? I am planning to go to the gym, and I would like to know about other protein sources and supplements like multivitamins. I stay in a PG hostel, so I don’t have access to much food and couldn’t manage my diet properly. I have a vitamin D3 deficiency in my blood. What should I do? Please recommend the supplements and overall health plan. How much mg should I take regularly? Please check it.
Male | 22
Take a vitamin D3 addition of 1000-2000 IU daily to rectify your deficiency, but you should not miss a consultation with a healthcare professional for the personalized recommendation. If you can manage a diet of limited food, try to eat more protein sources such as eggs, yogurt, and legumes. Apart from that multivitamins can also help to bridge the nutrition gap. It is suggested to remain active during the day and catch some sun too which would support the increment of vitamin D. Cut down on both caffeine and junk food. Your health expert will, without a doubt, be the right person to turn to if you are feeling tired or have muscle weakness and you are always urged to consult a doctor. You are the main focus in the healthcare system and you are not the only one who needs care.

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.

Can I take midol and DayQuil and NyQuil all in one day if I space it out?
Female | 19
For period pain relief, Midol can be taken during menstrual discomfort, and DayQuil and NyQuil help to combat the period. Inadequate sleep, the symptoms of cold and flu such as coughing and congestion are with tea to relieve by DayQuil and NyQuil. They may be taken at different times in general and they are tolerated in the body. At the same time, however, you should pay special attention to the total dose you take because of acetaminophen, which is found in both DayQuil and NyQuil. I propose that you stay away from gluttony and remain alert to your physical state. In case you would like to receive personalized healthcare advice, the most suitable option is to have a conversation with a medical specialist who can offer a customized opinion corresponding to your situation. Be well!

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.

I want a diet plan for 5000calories a day
Male | 28
Eat 5000 calories every single day, problems may arise. High-calorie intake leads to issues: weight gain, blood pressure spikes, diabetes risk increases, heart troubles develop. Consume nutritious foods instead - fruits, and vegetables provide vitamins, lean proteins build muscle, and whole grains give fiber. Avoid sugary drinks filled with empty calories. Also, unhealthy fats are detrimental.

Badan nhi lag raha hai kitna bhi khate pite hai
Male | 23
Despite consuming adequate food and drink, you are experiencing a lack of appetite. The air might be caused due to many reasons like stress, anxiety, infections, or digestive issues. Being unwell can also be a contributory factor. Consider eating wholesome meals, remaining hydrated, getting sufficient sleep, and controlling stress. If the situation doesn't change, it's always a good idea to discuss it with a dietitian for more tailored advice.

Kya hmy blend of seeds powder ko water ka sath lna chahiye ya milk say puray nutrients ka liye ? Or powder form ma lay sakty¿?? Khuxh log khty ka water ka sath lna waste ha kya yeh shi ha??
Female | 24
Aapke liye yeh behtar hoga ke blend of seeds powder ko doodh ke saath lein kyunki isse aapko zyada nutrients milte hain, jaise calcium aur protein. Pani ke saath lene par bhi yeh faydemand hai, lekin doodh ke saath yeh aapke body ke liye zyada beneficial hota hai. Seed powder ko khane ke liye aap kisi bhi form mein le sakte hain, jaise smoothies ya yogurt mein mix karke. Agar aap ko kisi health concern ka dar hai ya aapko koi symptoms mehsoos hote hain, toh doctor se consultation se mat hichkichaiye.

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.

I have inability to gain weight as i am underweight and have indigestion and fast heartbeat after eating
Female | 22
Struggling to gain pounds and feeling odd post-meals? Pay heed to these indicators. Your quick pulse after eating might signify digestion troubles. Indigestion hinders nutrient absorption, causing weight drop. Consume smaller portions, sidestep spicy fare, and stay hydrated. Consulting a dietitian for tailored counsel may prove beneficial.

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.

Female | 23
Lack of protein can make you feel low and unenergetic. However, there are many plant-based protein sources you can try. Include legumes, beans, tofu, chickpeas, nuts, and seeds in your daily diet. These foods will provide all the protein you need to keep your immune system strong, so you can feel confident and healthy.

Aapka sawaal samajhne ke liye shukriya. Zinc, Omega-3, aur Biotin, jo aapke mentioned foods se milte hain, aapki skin aur baalon ki sehat ke liye faydemand hain. Yeh nutrients aapki body ko support karte hain, lekin kisi hormonal imbalance ke liye sirf diet se istemal karna kafi nahi ho sakta. Aap in foods ko apne diet mein shamil karke dekh sakti hain, lekin iska asar dikhne mein kuch mahine lag sakte hain, aam tor par 3-6 maine. Agar samasya barqarar rahe, to kisi health professional se salah lena behtar hoga.

My mother is suffering with diabetes. She has been said to limit rice consumption. We're eating white rice in home. However,as we have heard from youtube that brown rice is good for diabetes now we switched to this.Will it make consequences in the future if over consumed?
Female | 50
Brown rice is surely a better option for diabetes than white rice which consists of more fiber and nutrients than brown rice. However, regardless of the kind of rice consumed, overconsumption can result in high blood sugar levels. Be careful to balance the number of portion sizes with other healthy foods like vegetables and lean proteins. If your mother goes through health conditions like drinking more water than usual, using the restroom frequently, or being tired all the time, it is necessary to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis.

B12 and folate deficiency treatment
Male | 22
Vitamin B12 and folate insufficiencies often show up with symptoms like tiredness, weakness, and some neurological troubles. Insufficient diet, some medical issues, and absorption barriers are some basic contributors. To overcome these deficits, one has to take B12-rich foods like meat, milk, and cereal that have been fortified, and also folate-rich foods such as green vegetables, beans, and oranges. Sometimes, they have to apply supplements. I suggest you visit a nurse/physician for your assessment and counseling because they will be the ones who can tell you what to do.

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.

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.
