Dear Akash, thank you for the question

Celiac disease which also known as ‘gluten - sensitive enteropathy’ is an autoimmune disorder caused by a reaction to gliadin which is a component of gluten. It is important to avoid gluten free foods as a cornerstone management of Celiac disease.

Weight management requires a holistic approach including lifestyle and dietary modifications.

Here are few guidelines that can be considered:
• Avoid consumption of cereal grains and other food products made from whole wheat, barley, oats, rye etc., as they contain gliadin.
• Include rice, corn, potato, millets, and soybean, arrowroot and amaranth seeds in daily diet. Products made out of these foods can be a part of daily diet for an individual who is diagnosed with celiac disease
• While grocery shopping carefully read labels to avoid food products that have gluten and hence look out for words such as ‘made from whole wheat’, ‘contains traces of wheat’, and mention of other ingredients that contain gluten or cross contamination with wheat. Choose products that are labelled ‘gluten free’, ‘made from millets’, ‘made with soybean’, etc.
• Maintain a positive energy balance where the calorie intake should be more than the energy expenditure.
• Have a Diversified Balanced Diet that includes all the food groups (keep in mind the foods to avoid for management of celiac disease) in the right quantity which thereby provides you with all the essential macro and micro nutrients that your body requires daily for proper functioning.
• Do not skip meals. Eat small frequent meals.
• Three major meals a day with healthy nutritious snacks in between is preferred.
• Try to increase the serving size and portion size gradually and systematically
• Include energy dense foods, keeping in mind the daily needs.
• Add healthy fats from nuts and seeds.
• Include protein sources (plant and/or animal sources) such as lentils, milk, paneer, lean meat, egg etc.
• Indulging physical activity can help in increasing the appetite and give a feeling of hunger.
• Try to follow a good sleep regimen that is in terms of both quantity and quality

Dear Suraj, Thank you for the question

As a general dietary guideline, for an apparently healthy individual with no specific health or nutrition needs and/or metabolic condition it is recommended to consume 2000kcal/day.

For further diagnosis and assistance please contact your health professional.

Here are few guidelines for healthy balanced diet that can be considered:
-Have a Diversified Balanced Diet that 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.
- Try to incorporate the My plate Concept by dividing your plate into 4 quadrants, fill half of your plate with fruits and vegetables, the other two quadrants with cereals and protein. A small quantity of dairy intake is recommendable.
-Begin your day with a well-balanced breakfast as it is an important meal of the day.
-Avoid skipping meals. Also, try to avoid fasting and feasting too often.
- Consume small frequent meals, with healthy snacking options.
-Consume minimum 5 servings of vegetables and 1 serving of fruit as they are rich in Fiber, essential minerals & Vitamins as well as they give you a feeling of satiety.
-Try to consume more of Whole grains and Multigrain foods as they are a good source of fiber.
-Limit intake of deep-fried foods. Method of cooking like baking, grilling, boiling, steaming is preferable over deep frying with excess fat/ oil.
-Have your last meal at least 1-2 hours before sleep time.
-Drink adequate amount of water (minimum 8 glasses) of water daily to keep yourself well hydrated
-Engage in at least 30-45 minutes brisk walk/physical activity of moderate intensity at least 5 days a week.

Dear Komal, Thank you for the question

Unintended weight gain can be due to factors such as hormonal imbalance, sedentary lifestyle, metabolism, and/or underlying metabolic conditions.
Weight loss requires a holistic approach which involves lifestyle modification which includes Dietary modification, Physical activity and stress management. With any weight loss diet, changes take time to reflect as your body requires sufficient time to adapt to the changes in order to show results.
An ideal weight loss plan should include a calorie deficit diet and appropriate exercise regimen followed under professional guidance.

Here are few guidelines that can be considered:
- Eat a well-balanced diet, include all the 5 food groups (cereals, pulses, fruits, vegetables, milk & milk products).
- Avoid skipping your meals. Have small quantity of meals at regular intervals.
- Choose healthy snacking options in between your meals.
- Monitor your portion size.
-Try to include whole grains like wheat, millets and multigrain in your diet as they are a good source of fiber and other nutrients.
- Fiber in your meals can potentiate the satiating property, suppress excess hunger and control food intake. All fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts & seeds etc., are a good source of fiber.
- Try switching from saturated fats and trans fats to MUFA (mono-unsaturated fatty acids ) & PUFA(polyunsaturated fatty acids) as they are essential fatty acids and are good for your health.
- Consume fresh, seasonal fruits as they contain many essential nutrients and are good sources of fiber.
- Carbonated and alcoholic beverages to be limited or preferably avoided.
- Deep Fried foods to be restricted. Method of cooking like baking, grilling, boiling, steaming is preferable over deep frying with excess fat/ oil.
- Minimum of 8 glasses of water should be consumed to keep yourself hydrated.
- Engage in at least 30-45 minutes of physical activity of moderate intensity such as walking for at least five days a week.
- Have your last meal at least 2-3 hours before Bed time.

Dear Vaishnavi, Thank you for the question

Regular gastritis like bloating, gas formation can be a symptom of digestive issues such as constipation, IBS, intolerances etc., and/or due to an underlying health condition.

Here are a few guidelines for general digestive health.
- Do not skip your meals, have small frequent meals at regular intervals.
- Eat a well-balanced diet including minimum 5 serving of vegetables and 1 serving of fruit in a day as they are good sources of fiber and essential nutrients such as vitamin A, Vitamin B, iron, zinc etc.
- Healthy snacks in between meals are preferable.
- Avoid large, heavy meals, and practice portion guidance.
- Deep fried foods to be restricted. Method of cooking like baking, grilling, boiling, steaming is preferable over deep frying with excess fat/ oil.

- Have a gap of minimum 1-2 hours between bedtime and your last meal
- Engage in physical activity for a minimum of 30-45 minutes for at least 5 days a week.
