What is the best diet for diabetics?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Regular and consistent diet is most important, with no feasts and fasts. Split your diet into 3-4 meals. Avoid sugar and sugar containing foods, and fried foods. Avoid fats (butter, oil, malai) and fat rich foods (puri, paratha, chat, namkeen etc.) Choose healthy carbohydrates, such as fruit, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and low-fat milk, as part of your diabetes meal plan.

I'm wondering about how to take calcirol sachets for vitamin D. Is it better with hot or cold milk? Does it even make a difference in how effective it is? I'm just a bit concerned about getting it right.
You can take Calcirol sachet with either hot or cold milk. Dissolve the contents of the sachet in a glass of milk and consume it. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider for optimal benefits.

I'm a 40-year-old woman dealing with non-cancerous myopia of the adrenal glands for the past year. I'm really hesitant about major surgery are there any other treatment options I could explore instead?
For non-cancerous adrenal tumors causing myopia, which is not the usual term for adrenal issues, but more likely a concern about hormonal imbalances or adrenal tumors, the first line of treatment is often observation and monitoring if the tumor is small and not causing symptoms. Minimally invasive surgery, like laparoscopic or robotic adrenalectomy, is often used for adrenal tumors. Alternative treatments may include medications to manage hormone imbalances or, if adrenal insufficiency is a concern, hormone replacement therapy
