I'm new to Mumbai and the only thing I'm eating right now is idli vada. I'm curious, what's the calorie count for this meal? And is it good for nutrition? I'm trying to make sure I'm eating healthy.

A typical serving of idli (2-3 pieces) and vada (1-2 pieces) contains approximately 250-400 calories, with a breakdown of 50-60g carbohydrates, 10-15g protein, and 10-15g fat; idli vada can be a nutritious option due to the presence of fermented rice and lentils, which provide probiotics, fiber, and essential amino acids, but be mindful of the oil used for frying vada and consider pairing with vegetables or sambar for added nutrition.

View allI'm thinking about taking a 2mg vitamin B6 supplement every day, but I'm a bit worried. Could that small amount cause any kind of toxicity or lead to nerve problems like neuropathy? Just want to be sure it's safe before I start. What do you think?
Taking 2mg of vitamin B6 daily is generally considered safe and should not cause toxicity or neuropathy. However, long-term intake of high doses of vitamin B6 (more than 100mg per day) may lead to neurological symptoms such as neuropathy. It is important to stay within the recommended daily allowance to avoid any potential adverse effects.

I'm trying to figure out if it's healthier to have 4 slices of brown bread with peanut butter every morning for breakfast, or if I should stick with the normal white bread. Any insights on which might be better for me?
Consuming 4 slices of brown bread with peanut butter daily for breakfast can provide sustained energy and satisfy hunger, but consider the calorie intake (around 320-400 calories) and balance it with other nutrient-rich foods throughout the day, and brown bread is a better choice than white bread due to its higher fiber and nutrient content.
