I'm a 22-year-old girl and I'm really concerned about my height. Is it still possible for me to grow taller at this age? Can you give me some advice or tips on what I might be able to do?
Increasing height at the age of 22 is difficult as the growth plates in your bones have likely fused. However, you can still improve your posture and overall bone health. You can take supplements like Shelcal HD (Calcium and Vitamin D) to support bone health. Additionally, regular exercise and a balanced diet rich in proteins and vitamins can help maintain overall health.

My mother is 65 and has a large, soft, painless lipoma in the middle of her upper stomach. It's been slowly growing, and since she also has diabetes, we're worried about surgery. Are there any permanent Ayurveda or homeopathy treatments that can dissolve the fatty lump from the root so it doesn't come back? We'd really prefer to avoid surgery.
The effectiveness of treatment depends on the specific condition and individual response. Some mild cases may improve with alternative therapies, but more serious issues might need conventional medical or surgical treatment. It's best to consult both specialists for a balanced approach.
