Bloated after dal? Here’s what’s actually going on

Gas after eating dal or beans? It’s probably not what you think 👇 A few checks before you blame the dal — and when it’s actually time to see someone. Got a question for me? DM it, might feature it next!
>Are you soaking it properly before cooking?

>While it’s cooking, skim off that frothy layer on top.

>Make sure it’s cooked well — not undercooked, that’s harder on your gut.

>And are you adding cumin, ginger, hing, a bit of ghee? Those actually help a lot.

>Are you eating it with rice or roti? Dal with a cereal isn’t just tradition, it genuinely makes digestion easier.

What happens to extra protein?

Everyone says, ‘Eat more protein!’ But has anyone told you what happens to the extra protein your body doesn’t need?

* Protein is essential. We need it for muscles, hormones, enzymes, repair… many important functions.
* But your body only uses what it needs.
* It cannot store extra protein as protein.
* The extra amino acids are broken down.
* The nitrogen is converted into urea, which leaves through the kidneys.
* The remaining part can be used for energy, converted into glucose, or stored as fat depending on your body’s needs.

“So protein is important… but ‘more’ isn’t automatically ‘better.’”

Do you really need more protein?

After all the discussions around protein, I wanted to do a simple calculation using my own meals.

I weigh 60 kg. My daily protein requirement is around 48 g. On more active days, it may be around 55–60 g.

With a simple homemade diet:
🥣 Breakfast – Idli/Dosa with sambar
🍛 Lunch – Unpolished rice, dal & vegetables
🌾 Dinner – Kanji with green gram
☕ Two cups of milk tea

…I’m already able to meet my daily protein requirement without protein powders or expensive supplements.

This doesn’t mean everyone needs the same amount of protein or should eat exactly what I eat. Your requirement depends on your body weight, activity level, age, health conditions, and other factors.

Before asking, “Do I need more protein?”

Ask yourself,

“Do I know how much protein my body actually needs?”

In the next reel, let’s understand what happens when we regularly consume more protein than our body requires.

I’d love to know—have you ever calculated your daily protein requirement?

How do I decide when experts disagree?

Many of you are confused by the contradictory information about supplements.

One expert recommends them.

Another warns against them.

So how do I personally navigate this confusion?

After being in the medical field for more than 14 years, I have learned two important lessons.

First, I do not blindly follow any new health trend—whether it is promoting a supplement or criticizing it.

Whenever I hear a strong claim, I ask:

Who is making this claim?

What is the evidence?

Is there a commercial interest involved?

Does it make biological sense?

And most importantly, does it match what I observe in real people?

Second, I trust the intelligence of the human body.

Our bodies have evolved over millions of years and perform thousands of complex functions every second without our conscious effort.

The body is constantly communicating with us through appetite, energy levels, sleep, digestion, mood, cravings, recovery, and symptoms.

The problem is not that the body has stopped communicating.

The problem is that many of us have forgotten how to listen.

So when experts disagree, I don’t immediately ask:

“Whom should I believe?”

I ask:

“What is my body telling me?”

“What problem am I trying to solve?”

“Do I really need this, or am I responding to marketing and fear?”

The answer is not to blindly trust every expert.

Nor is it to reject every expert.

The answer is to develop the ability to think, observe, question, and listen to your own body.

What’s Really Inside Your Protein Powder?

Many of us spend a lot of time thinking about how much protein we are getting.

But how often do we ask where that protein is coming from?

In 2025, the Clean Label Project tested many popular protein powders and found traces of heavy metals, BPA, pesticides, and other contaminants in several products.

This doesn’t mean all protein powders are bad.

And it doesn’t mean nobody should use them.

But it does remind us to ask better questions about the products we consume every day.

Health is not just about getting more nutrients.

It is also about understanding the source of those nutrients.

The report link is in the comments.

Before your next scoop, take a few minutes to learn what’s inside it.

A Deficiency Is Not a Diagnosis

Vitamin B12 deficiency.
Vitamin D deficiency.
Magnesium deficiency.

These are some of the most common words we hear today.

But before reaching for a supplement, have you ever stopped to ask why?

Have you looked at your food habits, sleep, stress, physical activity, addictions, and overall health?

Sometimes a deficiency is not the problem itself.

It may simply be a clue.

A clue asking us to look a little deeper into our lifestyle and daily choices.

A blood test may show the deficiency.

But your lifestyle may be showing you the reason.

Nutrition Beyond Nutrients
Series 4- Before investing in supplements, invest in your food

Many times people ask me,

“Do we need supplements nowadays because the food we eat is less nutrient-rich?”

My answer is:

First, look at your food.

If most of your meals consist of minimally processed foods, unpolished rice, locally available vegetables, fruits, and other traditional foods, then your body can get most of the nutrients it needs from the food you eat.

Of course, you have to put in some effort to find and choose these foods.

But the time, money, and effort you invest in getting good-quality food can give you far greater benefits than simply buying supplements.

Before looking for nutrients in a bottle, look at what is on your plate.

Series 3 :- Why Do We Need Food ?

Food does not nourish us just because we eat it.

Between the plate and the cell, many important processes take place.

Food must be digested, absorbed, transported, transformed, and utilized.

When we focus only on nutrients and ignore the body’s ability to process them, we miss a big part of the picture.

Nutrition matters.

But the body’s ability to use that nutrition matters too.

The question is not only:
“What am I eating?”

It is also:
“What is happening to that food inside my body?”

Nutrition beyond Neutients
Series 2 :- Is Any Food Really Good or Bad?

We often look for simple answers:

Is this food healthy?
Should I avoid that food?
What is the best diet?

But nutrition is rarely that simple.

The same food can produce different results in different people.

Food is only one part of the equation.

Digestion, health condition, activity, sleep, stress, age, season, quantity, and timing all matter.

Instead of asking whether a food is universally good or bad, start observing how your body responds to it.

That is where real understanding begins.
