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.

I'm a strict vegetarian and just got my vitamin B12 test results back showing 242 pgml. Is that considered a normal range or is it low? I'm really concerned about maintaining my levels. Could you suggest what vegetarian foods might help boost my B12?

I'm really trying to watch my weight and I've heard that roti can be pretty high in calories and carbs. But as Indians, it's hard to skip it altogetherlike, having fewer than 24 roti in a meal just doesn't feel satisfying. How can I break this habit? And is switching to bread a better option for weight loss?

Fat accumulation around waist needs lifestyle modifications in the form of diet and exercise. Do portion control of meals and include low carbohydrate, low fat and high protein foods in diet. Moderate to high intensity exercises such as jogging, running, lifting weights and crunches are to be done for at least 5 days in a week and each session must be at least 45 minutes.
