I've been taking Patanjali's ashwagandha tablets after lunch hoping they'd give me more energy during the day, but instead, I just get really sleepy. Do you know of any other ashwagandha brands that could actually help with boosting energy?

Consider alternative ashwagandha brands like Himalaya, Dabur, or NOW Foods, which may have different formulations or concentrations that might provide energizing effects without excessive sleepines

How soon after recovering from dengue can I start drinking alcohol again? I've been feeling good for about a week now and my vitals are back to normal. Is it safe to have a drink, or should I wait a bit longer?

It is generally recommended to wait at least 2-3 weeks after recovering from dengue fever before consuming alcohol. This allows your body to fully recover and regain its strength. Remember to start with small amounts and listen to your body for any signs of discomfort.

I'm a bit worried because I recently recovered from dengue, which was confirmed on June 20th. Now, 43 days ago, I had a mild fever and headache. Could this be related to dengue in any way?
