Dear Ramesh Babu
Thank you for the question

There are several factors that can lead to increased levels of cholesterol. Some of the factors include genetics, stress, sedentary lifestyle, medications, an underlying health condition and daily diet etc. The type and quantity of fat in the daily diet influence the level of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood.

Some of the guidelines to be considered
- Eat a well-balanced diet including whole grains, pulses, lentils, fruits vegetables and dairy.
- Choose healthy snacking options in between your meals.
- Good amount of fiber especially soluble fiber can help lower blood cholesterol. Some of the good sources of soluble fiber include oats, apples, peas, citrus fruits etc.
- - Consume fresh, seasonal fruits as they contain many essential nutrients and are good sources of fiber.
- - Deep Fried foods to be restricted. Method of cooking like baking, grilling, boiling, steaming is preferable over deep frying with excess fat/ oil.
- Limit the consumption of high fat foods such as butter, cheese, red meat etc.
- Consuming low fat (skimmed) milk instead of whole milk is preferable.
- Restrict consumption of foods that are high in Saturated fatty acids and trans fats.

Dear Mohana
Thank you for the question

Lack of proper digestion also known as indigestion can be referred to gastro intestinal issues such as bloating, excessive belching, gas and upset stomach. Some of the causative factors include irregular food habits, over eating, consuming large amounts of beverages such as water immediately after meal, improper sleeping habits, intolerance of gluten/lactose, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and/or an underlying health condition etc.
It may be accompanied by other symptoms such as nausea, upper abdomen pain, heartburn, occasional vomiting etc. For further diagnosis and assistance kindly please contact your health care professional.
Here are some guidelines for general digestive health that can be considered:

- Eat a well-balanced diet includes all the food groups in the right quantity which thereby provides you with all the essential macro and micro nutrients that your body requires daily for proper functioning
- Avoid large, heavy meals, and practice portion guidance.
