Identifying the cause of stomach aches after eating certain foods can involve keeping a food diary to track what you eat and when symptoms occur. Look for patterns and commonalities among the foods that trigger discomfort. Consider common culprits like dairy, gluten, spicy foods, or certain vegetables. Gradually eliminate suspected triggers from your diet and monitor how your body responds. Consulting a healthcare professional or registered dietitian can provide personalized guidance and help pinpoint specific dietary triggers.

Hi there, I hope you are well. To identify common food triggers and understand which foods are leading to stomach ache, bloating, and discomfort, here's what you must do. - Prepare meals with less ingredients or avoid mixing too many things together ( say for eg-if you are preparing a dal, use one or two dals at the max). - Maintain food journal in which you can write the foods eaten and it you faced any of the above mentioned symptoms ( stomach ache, bloating, dull pain, etc) Note these foods for at least a week and then, begin eliminating a given food from the diet. - There are chances that spicy food, dairy ( milk, paneer, cheese), excessive gluten, maida or maida based products, fried foods , cruciferous veggies may lead to stomach ache or pain. - Hence, once you've noticed common symptoms with the same foods then, stop consuming it for a week or 10 days, and then, reintroduce it in smaller portions. - Please feel free to book a one-one consult with me for further guidance ✨✨

Hi there yes I can guide you on every stage,let me know more about . For one on one consultation you can connect with me 😀

NutritionistHudaShaikh・18d

Hi there, I hope you are well. Before and during conception nutrients like Iron, Folate, Vitamin A, Iodine, Calcium, Vitamin B12, and Protein are of prime importance. - Iron is necessary to avoid anemia, as to support the increased blood requirement in the body. Green leafy vegetables, nuts, seeds, dates, beans, amaranth, ragi are good sources of the same. - Folate- Folate is necessary to avoid neural tube defects in the fetus, and to support growth of the body. Leafy green, beans, lentils, nuts are good sources of the same. - Calcium- Calcium requirements increase as your bones are supporting a pregnancy ( especially the back and pelvis). Dairy and dairy products, sesame seeds, fish, leafy greens are good sources. Even fortified foods. -Vitamin D- Sunlight is the primary source. However, eggs, fish, nuts, fortified foods are some good sources of the same.Vitamin D is needed for absorption of Calcium, for immunity, bone strength, etc.

To curb emotional eating, try finding alternative ways to cope with stress such as practicing mindfulness, deep breathing exercises, going for a walk, or engaging in a hobby you enjoy. Keep healthy snacks readily available, and try to identify triggers for emotional eating so you can address them directly. Additionally, consider seeking support from friends, family, or a therapist to develop healthier coping mechanisms.

You can practice meditation to calm yourself down .Also you can switch to healthier snack

keep a dry snacks like crackers , cookies or almonds And water on bed side table in the night . And in the morning without getting up, rinse your mouth and have what ever snack you kept in the previous night.. After 10 mints , get out of bed exercising your arms and feet and slowly inhaling and exhaling. Do not brush your teeth immediately. wait for an hour . Use small baby Brushto avoid Gag reflex. Small and frequent diets. solid and liquids not to be taken together , minimum 15 to 30 mints gap. Take Fresh Coconut water ,less of Coffee and Tea. No to oily and spicy stuff. Keep your self busy like read a book,Paint,draw .Do what everakes you happy. Ginger -ale, Ginger cookies , small grated ginger in tea helps in lessening the intensity of nausea. Wear loose , comfortable clothes .

My mom keeps telling me about how important eating healthy is, and while I get it, sometimes I just want to indulge in some junk food or sweets with my friends. How do I explain this to her?

Yea it happens. It's difficult to control your eating habits. You can do one thing, keep a day in a week when you can eat your favorite things and have good diet rest of days

NutritionistHudaShaikh・9d

Hi there, I hope you are well. Your mom is worried for you and your health and it's absolutely understandable ✨✨ Here's how you can explain it to her - - Sit her down and tell her how you are planning to eat healthy from Monday until Saturday. - Tell her that as per research and nutrition experts, indulgence is okay, once in a while, especially during any one meal of the day on Saturday or Sunday. - You can explain that you will eat healthy the whole day, and then, have a portion of favourite foods. - Promise her that you'll eat in portions and won't go overboard with the same. - It's a phase which shall pass and your mom will understand that you need to have your favourite food/foods once in a while. - Take it as a learning phase, because even my mom would instruct me and my siblings when we were in college. - Don't mind it, and just go with the flow :) I hope this helps, take care ✨

If you know what her favorite food is that’s always a winner. Also a pot roast with potato and carrots cooked in the crockpot pot. Or if it’s going to be warm outside like it here you can always fire up the grill throw some chicken or steak on the grill, make some potato salad, coleslaw, bake beans, bake her a cake or pie for dessert. I wish everyone a Happy Mother’s Day! ❤️

I think you can start with delicious pan cake and then her favorite lunch etc

how many chapati is considered healthy for a 28 year old 5.2 feet 60 weight breastfeeding mom of 2.3 year old. how should a nutritious daily diet look like? I was 55 before being pregnant. I am finding it hard to lose the extra weight. I was also diagnosed with hypoglycemia after which I felt the urge to eat more and started weight gain.

Coba cari tempat yang tenang, tarik napas dalam-dalam, dan coba fokusin pikiran ke hal-hal positif. Kalau perlu, cerita sama temen dekat atau cari bantuan profesional buat dapetin dukungan lebih lanjut.
