View allI've been struggling with managing my weight and height because I'm 100kg and 58 feet tall. I really want to adopt a healthy diet and exercise plan, but I'm so busy with my studies that I can't find the time for regular exercise. I'm worried about how this is affecting my health. Can you suggest a simple and effective plan that fits into a hectic schedule?
Given your busy schedule, aim for a balanced diet rich in lean proteins, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats. For exercise, try incorporating short, effective sessions like 20-30 minutes of walking, cycling, or home workouts that you can fit into your routine, even if it's just a few times a week. Consistency is key!

Galvus Met 50500, containing vildagliptin and metformin, is a commonly prescribed oral anti-diabetic medication that can effectively control blood sugar levels; however, potential side effects include headache, dizziness, and gastrointestinal issues, such as diarrhea or nausea, although these are generally mild and temporary; since your father experienced gastric issues with Glycomet, monitor his response to Galvus Met and report any concerns
