Urooj A: Dear Urooj, follow strict vegetarian and protein diet which is rich in omega-3 fatty acids such as nuts, seeds and oily-fishes. Avoid salt, oil, fructose, grains and sugar in all forms.

My height is 5ft 1 inch and weight is 56kg. I want to lose extra body fat in 3 months. Please suggest a diet plan. Shazia A: Dear Shazia, your BMI shows that you are overweight and the body weight is turning into obesity. Follow ketonic diet based on good fats for at least 3 months. The main benefit of this diet plan is that it increases the bodys ability to utilise fats for fuel, which gets very lazy on a high carbohydrate diet. In the state of ketosis, the body has to become efficient at mobilising fats as energy. Gain body mass Q: I am an 18-year-old boy. My weight is 48kg and height is 5ft 11 inches.

Engage yourself in yoga. Take multi-vitamins/mineral supplements, fish oil capsules and D3 supplements to get healthy. The plant-based diet will surely help you lose extra weight. Healthy food diet Q: My daughter is 16 years old. She doesn’t eat anything except processed food items. She is gaining body fat and I am afraid of other health problems too. Please recommend a diet plan for her. Mrs. Aleem A: Dear Mrs. Aleem, ask your daughter to sincerely give up on processed food items, as they not only cause health complications and weight issues but they are not at all proper food. They are just packaged products with preservatives. Give her chromium supplement after your physician’s approval to curtail unnecessary cravings. Make her eat healthy food, such as a whole-food diet. It will take some time to adjust, but she will soon realise that it is a better choice. - See more at: magtheweekly/06-12Dec2014/health_nutrition.asp#sthash.B6n61e5J.dpuf
