Nutritional Deficiencies Questions

Asked for male, 33 years old from Udupi

Hello Doctor, I have deficiency of nutrition in my body and I am taking supplements as well. As per the advise by a doctor in my nativity, if I cut my hair short it will absorb less nutrition from what I eat and most of it used by other body parts. According to him big margin of the nutrition what we intake is consumed by our hairs. So in that way does it help if I cut my hair short to boost up my recovery.

Nutraceutical is a combination of “nutrition” and “pharmaceutical”. So talking about nutraceutical it means food or part of a food that apparently provides health or medicinal benefits, including the prevention and treatment of disease. A nutraceutical may be a naturally medicinally or nutrient-rich active food, such as soybeans or garlic, or it may be a specific component of a food such as the omega-3 fish oil that can be derived from salmon and other cold-water fish.

Asked for Male, 20 years old from Guntur

Hello doctor, I've been 20 years old and have never eaten vegetables since childhood. When I was a kid, my mom used to force me to eat, but I feel like vomiting, and i'll spit from childhood itself. I'm getting some body issues like skin problems, hair fall, etc. Can I take multivitamin supplements? I read so many answers and reviews on quora from those who shared the same problem. They said this feeling energetic about veggies lasts forever and there is no cure. Then what should I do? I don't want to suffer in the future.

Better start with juices of vegetables and or in soup form. Remember natural protein and vitamin are easily digested and absorbed in body.
Synthetic form of vitamin and mineral is not good at all secondly you can check with a homeopath doctor and take homeopathic medicine to relieve your symptoms.

Asked for male, 57 years old from Pune

I am 21-year-old female, I have very high pulse rate, mostly above 100, 120 is also normal for me but my metabolism is slow, any healing is slow, no thyroid problem nor diabetic but have pcos. I had to take iron and d3 as vitamin d and hemogram was way below normal. Vitamin d, till I started d3 supplements, was 5.7 and hemoglobin was 6.7 before I took 5 injections and now am taking supplements for the same. Now d3 is 24.35 and 10.9, less but better than before. What is the way forward? Why high pulse but slow metabolism? Thanks.

Hi dear friend.
I noted down your history. Here are the few points I would like to add from my side.
1) your pulse rate was/is high because your hb was/is low. 2) now as it is better than before but still you should take some supplements for vitamin b12 as well. 3) consume diet rich in iron like spinach, beetroot, dryfruits, eggs etc.
4) if all the above is corrected and still pulse is high then need to see for other issues like anxiety.
Thanks and regards.
