View allI'm wondering if eating rice might be a problem for me because I've heard rice is naturally cold, and I'm concerned it could affect my health. Could you let me know if it's bad for me and perhaps suggest a diet plan? I'd appreciate your help! What kind of foods would be safe for me to eat?
Rice is not harmful for diabetes, but it should be consumed in moderation, especially white rice. Brown rice or other whole grains are better options. Focus on portion control, balanced meals, and low-GI foods to manage your blood sugar effectively. Always consult with your healthcare provider or a nutritionist for personalized advice, especially if you are managing diabetes or other chronic conditions.

I've been hearing a lot about how our diet might be connected to our blood type. My blood type is A, and I've been following all the recommended diets for type A, but I just can't seem to gain any weight. Do you have any advice on a proper diet for someone with my blood type, or maybe some supplements I could try? I'm a bit concerned and would love some guidance.
focus on incorporating protein-rich foods, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates, such as lean meats, fish, eggs, dairy, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables; consider adding supplements like vitamin B12, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids to support weight gain and overall health; also, explore increasing calorie intake through nutrient-dense snacks

I'm trying to figure out whether it's better to drink milk in the morning or in the evening. Is there an ideal time for it health-wise, or does it not really matter? I'm just a bit confused about what the best practice is.
Drinking milk in the evening is considered more beneficial than in the morning, as it helps promote better sleep quality, relaxes the muscles, and supports bone health, due to the presence of tryptophan, calcium, and magnesium, which have a calming effect on the body.
