Want to gain my weight by 8 kg. Currently my weight is 57 kg. I am diabetic, but sugar level is under 110 mg/dl (fasting). I am 50 years old, have height 5' 5"

Ans: For gaining weight, focus on eating good quality protein foods like low fat dairy products, lean meat, eggs, nuts, legumes, pulses, etc. This will help gain lean mass and increase your stamina.

Health

Hi Anil, I am a 43 old, Diabetic since last 7 years... Compared with my family, I am pretty thin. Being a vegetarian, I regular in-take is always Vegetables and Daal along with rice as a normal diet. Can you please suggest me ways to increase my weight ?

Ans: Being a diabetic, make sure your blood glucose levels are monitored regularly and remain within normal levels. You need to increase muscle mass to gain weight. For this, include protein rich foods in your diet like low fat dairy, egg whites, fish, soya, nuts etc. Complex carbohydrate intake majorly from high fiber fruits and vegetables along with whole grains and pulses will help maintaining normal blood glucose levels. Exercise regularly which includes cardio and strength training exercises.

Dear Sir/Madam, I am 44 years old and diabetic. My FBS is between 85 to 110 and PP between 130 to 170. My weight is 62+kg. And on medication. Taking glycomate GP1 Forte (1-0-1). I am playing badminton for 2 hrs almost daily. I am trying to gain a little weight as I look thin. But the weight is not increasing beyond 62.5kg. I am not having any other complications other than diabetics. Can you please guide me

Ans: I am glad to hear that you’re actively managing your diabetes and staying physically active! To gain weight, you need to consume focus on foods that are high in nutrients which can include nuts, seeds, avocados, whole grains, and lean proteins. Add healthy fats to your diet, such as olive oil, avocado, and nuts. Ensure you’re getting enough protein to support muscle growth and repair. Include sources like lean meats, fish, eggs, dairy products, legumes, and protein shakes. Incorporate strength training as this can help build muscle mass, and contribute to weight gain. Monitor your blood sugar levels regularly.

Sir can you guide about abroad institute for neuropsychology after mbbs.Or road map from MBBS to neuropsychology

Ans: Hello Arvinder,

Firstly, thank you for reaching out to us. To answer your question, if you're an MBBS graduate looking to pursue neuropsychology abroad, the typical roadmap would involve first gaining a solid foundation in psychology or neuroscience, often through a master's or post-graduate diploma. Many institutes offer specialized courses or programs in neuropsychology, such as those at universities in the UK, US, or Canada. You'd want to look for programs that bridge the gap between medicine and psychology, like MSc in Neuropsychology or Clinical Neuroscience. After completing your postgraduate degree, you might consider further research or clinical training opportunities, often leading to a PhD or professional certifications. You’ll be combining your medical background with psychological expertise to understand brain-behavior relationships, which is a fascinating field!

Hello sir, my name is Priya I got 77.81%ile (OBC NCL) in jee mains 2025. Can I get seat in any nit or iiit with any branch, home state Telangana. Also also sir any suggestions to increase my percentile in April attempt?

Ans: Hello Priya
as per last year's cutoff you are not eligible for JOSAA counselling. You can improve your score and get admissions in your dream college. Control negatives, don't give into the temptation of marking the option if you are not sure, options are designed that way, you commit a mistake and you will get a wrong answer there waiting to be marked.
30-35 questions correctly answered without any negative marking can get you your desired college.
All the best.
