Where does fat go when you lose weight?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
When you consume fewer calories or exercise, your body turns to fat reserves for energy. Once fat is metabolised to give energy, its byproducts leave the body through skin as sweat, through kidneys as urine and through lungs as carbondioxide as you breathe out.

View allI've been trying to work on reducing my fat and losing weight, so I started drinking lemon and honey with water. I'm not sure when the best time is to drink it. I usually have it after brushing my teeth and using the toilet in the morning. Is that right, or should I be drinking it before brushing and using the toilet? Can you help me figure this out?
It is generally recommended to drink lemon and honey water on an empty stomach, ideally before brushing your teeth and using the toilet. This allows for better absorption of the nutrients and may help in weight loss. So, it would be better to drink it before brushing and using the toilet in the morning.

Is Rice better than wheat?
Although rice and wheet are both staple foods in India, choice is dependant on individual's need and health status. Rice provides the same amount of iron as wheat but has less phosphorus, potassium and magnesium. It doesn't contain any calcium. Each serving of chapatis provides high calcium, phosphorus, iron and potassium compared to rice. Rice is easier to digest while wheet keeps you full for longer. Rice is rich in folate while wheet has protein. Rice is high glycemic index while wheet is good for diabetics.

I'm 33 and just a regular person trying to make healthier choices. I've been thinking about adding ghee to my diet daily but I'm unsure which one is better for health benefits - cow ghee or buffalo ghee? Can you help me understand the differences or what might be better for someone like me?
Both cow and buffalo ghee offer health benefits, but cow ghee is generally considered superior due to its higher levels of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which may aid in weight management and immune function; however, choose a high-quality, grass-fed, and cultured ghee from either source to reap the benefits.
