I'm underweight and really want to gain some weight, but I also want to start exercising and doing yoga. I'm just not sure of the right timing for this so that I don't end up losing more weight. Should I be doing exercises on an empty stomach, or is it better after eating if I'm trying to gain weight?

I'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.
