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?

-To gain weight, it's best to exercise after a meal to ensure your body has enough energy. You can do light exercises or yoga in the morning after breakfast or after a balanced meal, as this will support both your weight gain goals and your exercise routi

Is drinking packed fruit juice like REAL fruit juice every day actually good for me, or is it just adding extra sugar to my diet? I find it convenient since it's easily available in the market, but I'm worried about the health implications. Can it be a part of my daily routine?

Drinking packaged fruit juice like REAL daily isn't as healthy as fresh juice or whole fruits, as it often contains added sugars and lacks fiber. While it's convenient, it's better to limit intake and opt for fresh fruits or freshly squeezed juice when possible.

I'm working night shifts from 5:30 PM to 2:30 AM and I've been having some health issues because of it. I cant seem to maintain a healthy dieteither I'm trying to catch up on sleep or I just dont feel hungry at night. Because of the night shift, my routine's all over the place now. What do you think should be my ideal diet and routine? I'm noticing problems like hair fall, mood swings, and sometimes even weakness. Also, Im a pure vegetarian, so Id love some suggestions keeping that in mind. Looking forward to your advice!

Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep during the day. Use dark curtains and keep the room cool. Before shift: Have whole grains, protein (tofu, lentils), and fruitsvegetables. During shift: Opt for light snacks like yogurt, hummus, and stay hydrated with water or herbal tea. Post-shift: Eat a light meal with protein (vegetable soup, smoothie). Supplements: Consider Vitamin B12, iron, Vitamin D, omega-3s, and biotin for hair and mood support. Exercise: Incorporate light exercise after waking up to boost energy and mood.Staying consistent with sleep, diet, and exercise will help improve your health. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist.
