Hello I am 42Y Male. My weight is 56.6 kg and height is 166 CM. Currently I am healthy. However with increasing age, I am afraid that I may get hypertension Diabetes, I follow fasting for 14-16 hrs daily and run around 50Km per week. Can u please suggest if these measures are enough to remain healthy for a longer period of time or any changes are required. My sleep pattern remain disturb. not sure what is the reason. I eat Carbs only during lunch and only protein diet in dinner before 7 PM. Occasionally I drink (once in 3 month) and have refined carbs food and sweets once in a month..

Ans: While you are following a healthy life style in terms of eating habits and regular walks, mental relaxation can be achieved through meditation and pranayams - starting from a smaller period and going upto an hour - but daily practice. Secondly, you should 0watch your sleep regime and try to relax your mind before hitting the bed. You can do Om chanting for 5 to 10 minutes, soak your feet in epsum salt for 10-15 minutes or at least wash them with cold water before sleeping. I am sure you are already keeping a gap of 2 hrs between your dinner time and bed time, also practice a digital detox of at least an hour before sleeping.

Ans: Hi, You are dot on when it comes to eating healthy and even the workout plans. However, if not done at the right time during the day, they can rather be harmful to the body. Our body functions are regulated by the solar & lunar cycle during the day. As the Sun controls our digestion, it is advisable to eat during the day hours and very light after sunset, especially no later than 8PM. Secondly, the day is also governed by the three doshas - Kapha, Pitta and Vata - therefore our workout, sleep, food regime should be inline with these systems. Since you have a family history, it is advisable to meet a Ayurvedic practitioner to understand these cycles and plan your day accordingly.
