Bloating. Farting. Tight stomach. Gassy all day?
It’s NOT “normal.”
It’s not funny either.
It’s your gut screaming: “I’m inflamed, irritated & confused.”
Here are 10 real reasons you’re bloated and how to fix it 🧵 👇
#GutHealth #Bloating
1. You’re eating foods your body can’t digest.
Gluten, excess dairy, fried foods, sugar, and ultra-processed crap inflame your gut.
They feed gas-producing bacteria and cause fermentation.
➡️ Cut them out for 2 weeks You’ll feel the difference.
2. You’re chewing fast & swallowing air.
When you eat in a rush or talk while chewing, you swallow air.
This gas gets trapped in your GI tract.
➡️ Slow down. 20–30 chews per bite. Breathe between bites.
3. You have LOW stomach acid (not too much).
Most bloating isn’t from high acid and it’s from too little.
You’re not breaking down food properly, so it ferments.
➡️ Try lemon water or apple cider vinegar before meals.
4. You’re eating too late, too heavy at night.
Big dinners rot overnight in a sluggish gut.
This leads to trapped gas, poor sleep, and bloated mornings.
➡️ Go light at dinner. No grains or dairy after 7 PM.
5. You snack too often.
Every bite restarts digestion.
No downtime = fermentation chaos.
➡️ Eat 2–3 proper meals. Leave 4–5 hrs between meals. No mindless munching.
6. You’re overloading on “healthy” but hard-to-digest foods.
Cauliflower, rajma, broccoli, garlic, onion,these are HIGH FODMAPs.
In sensitive guts, they cause gas and bloating.
➡️ Eliminate for 2–3 weeks. Reintroduce slowly.
7. Your gut microbes are imbalanced (dysbiosis).
Too many bad bacteria = too much gas.
Probiotics alone won’t fix it ,first, starve the bad bugs.
➡️ Remove sugar, feed the good guys with fermented foods.
8. You’re not moving enough after meals.
Sedentary habits = gas stays trapped.
➡️ Do a 10-min walk or Vajrasana after eating.
Try Pawanmuktasana in the morning to relieve gas.
9. You’re constipated.
If you’re not pooping daily, gas builds up.
➡️ Hydrate. Get 25–30g fiber/day.
Add soaked raisins, triphala, or magnesium citrate if needed.
10. You’re not cooking your food for digestion.
Raw veggies, millets, legumes = difficult for weak guts.
➡️ Soak, sprout, ferment. Add ajwain, hing, cumin to meals.
💥 Real talk:
Gas isn’t “just gas.”
It’s unprocessed food + unprocessed emotions + ignored inflammation.
Start listening to your gut.
Your body isn’t misbehaving.
It’s sending signals.

“PROTEIN is dangerous!” The biggest myth killing your health in India 🇮🇳
Most Indians are afraid of protein.
They think it harms the kidney, makes you fat, or is only for bodybuilders.
Let’s bust these myths using ICMR’s own guidelines 🧵 👇
#Protein #ICMR #Nutrition
1. What is Protein?

Protein = essential macronutrient made of amino acids.

🧬 It builds:
•Muscles
•Enzymes
•Hormones
•Skin, hair, nails
•Immune cells

Without adequate protein, you literally begin to waste away.
2. How much Protein do Indians need? (ICMR 2020)

✅ 1.0g per kg body weight/day for sedentary adults
👉 Example: A 60 kg Indian = needs 60g/day

✅ Higher for:
👉Children
👉Pregnant/lactating women
👉Elderly
👉Athletes
👉People recovering from illness

Vitamin D is NOT a vitamin.
It’s a steroid hormone that controls over 1000 genes.
Your metabolism,mood and immunity depend on it.
Most people are dangerously low and don’t even know.
🧵 Read this before you pop another pill 👇
1. What is Vitamin D, really?
Despite its name, Vitamin D is a hormone, not a vitamin.
It’s produced in your skin when exposed to sunlight (UVB).
It then gets activated in the liver and kidneys to its hormone form: Calcitriol (1,25(OH)₂D) a powerful regulator of:
•Immunity
•Calcium metabolism
•Inflammation
•Gene expression
•Mood and brain health
2. Symptoms of Vitamin D Deficiency
Most people have NO clue they’re deficient. Watch out for:
•Fatigue and low energy
•Joint or back pain
•Frequent infections
•Poor wound healing
•Hair fall
•Low mood or depression
•Bone pain / fractures
•Poor sleep

🧠 Also linked to brain fog and anxiety.

10 Weight Loss Principles Top Nutritionists Swear By
Adapted for Indian People. No fads. No starvation. Just science & common sense.🧵
✅ 1. Calorie Deficit Is King (But Not Starvation)

🔥 To lose fat, you must burn more calories than you consume.

👉But that doesn’t mean eating less and moving less.
👉Eat real, filling foods that nourish you and help reduce hunger.
👉Avoid extreme calorie cuts they backfire.

📌 In India: Replace calorie-dense fried snacks with sprouts, salads, buttermilk, or homemade soup.
✅ 2. Prioritize Protein in Every Meal
🥚 Protein preserves muscle, reduces cravings, and keeps you full longer.

🔸Aim: 1.2–2g of protein per kg of ideal body weight.
🔸Even vegetarians can achieve this with paneer, curd, dals, legumes, tofu, and whey.

📌 Add 50–100g paneer, or 4 boiled eggs, or a bowl of chana/sprouts per meal.

80% of people with Insulin Resistance don’t know they have it.
It leads to diabetes, heart disease, PCOS, even Alzheimer’s.
It’s silent… until it isn’t.
Here’s how to catch & reverse it early. (Save this.) 🧵👇Image
1. What is Insulin Resistance?

Every time you eat, especially carbs, your blood sugar rises.
Your body releases insulin to push that sugar into your cells.

But with insulin resistance, your cells stop responding.
So your body keeps pumping out more and more insulin.

This silent overload?
Is what makes people sick, fat, tired and eventually diabetic.
2. Why is this dangerous?

Because high insulin = metabolic disaster.
It’s the real cause behind:

❌ Type 2 Diabetes
❌ Heart Disease
❌ Fatty Liver
❌ PCOS
❌ Brain Fog
❌ Alzheimer’s (yes)
❌ Infertility
❌ Belly fat that never goes

And most people don’t even know they have it.

Intermittent Fasting is not starvation.
It’s science-backed fat loss.
It heals insulin resistance, PCOD & even prediabetes.
Yet 90% Indians do it wrong.
Here’s the ultimate guide to do it right 🧵
(Save this. Share this.)
#FatLoss #Diabetes #PCOD
1️⃣ What is Intermittent Fasting (IF)?
It’s not a diet.
It’s an eating pattern that cycles between periods of eating and fasting.

Most popular:
⏱️ 16:8 – Fast for 16 hrs, eat in 8-hr window
⏱️ 14:10 – Mild version, 14 hrs fast, 10 hrs eating
2️⃣ Why does IF work for fat loss?
✅ Increases fat burning hormones (like HGH)
✅ Improves insulin sensitivity
✅ Reduces caloric intake without effort
✅ Allows body to tap into fat reserves
Studies show IF is as effective or better than calorie-restriction diets.
