View allI'm new to Mumbai and the only thing I'm eating right now is idli vada. I'm curious, what's the calorie count for this meal? And is it good for nutrition? I'm trying to make sure I'm eating healthy.
A typical serving of idli (2-3 pieces) and vada (1-2 pieces) contains approximately 250-400 calories, with a breakdown of 50-60g carbohydrates, 10-15g protein, and 10-15g fat; idli vada can be a nutritious option due to the presence of fermented rice and lentils, which provide probiotics, fiber, and essential amino acids, but be mindful of the oil used for frying vada and consider pairing with vegetables or sambar for added nutrition.

I'm really struggling with a strong craving to eat raw rice, and I find myself doing it a lot. I've noticed that I've put on weight because of this, and I really want to stop. Could this be happening because I'm lacking something in my diet? What can I do to overcome this craving?
Eating raw rice excessively, a condition known as pica, can be a sign of iron deficiency anemia. To address this issue, you can start taking iron supplements such as Ferrous Sulfate 325mg once daily. Additionally, incorporating iron-rich foods in your diet like spinach, red meat, and fortified cereals can help. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management of your condition.

I'm a bit concerned because I'm underweight, and I've read that warm water with lemon might be good for health, but does it actually lead to weight loss? I'm worried it might not be the best thing for me to start if I'm already trying to put on some weight. Can you help clear this up for me?
