  • Hello Dr pal Your videos are the inspiration for me to start my intermittent fasting & doing it for the past 4 months (ofcourse sometimes only sometimes skips during weekends) very detailed description easy to understand.
  • I have started contributing a small amount from this month to Aishwaryam trust. Thanks Dr. Palaniappan.
  • Sir, I am really thankful for all information and enjoy the way you depict. I am a diabetic for over 20 years with problem of albumin leakage in urine. Is there any restriction for protein intake?
  • @avv9006
    I just love his interpretation of every subject. His comparison to Sharavanakumar is so humorous, that he hits the right string and sends the message home. Super Dr.Pal. appreciate your effort. So precise that we could jot those points down and do the calculations for ourselves. Thank you. Salute

    Dr Paul, i have been following your YouTube for quite some time. I really appreciate the way you're explaining about health. Since this video is about protein, i would like ask you to give recommend some plant based which has probiotic and can be digested easily. Since I have gastric issues I don't like to prefer either milk based or meat based protein. Could you please suggest some?

    Another great video Pal! Looking back at my visits to my great grandma's village I remember she use to have a jug of buttermilk by her bedside to consume throughout the day. She was slim and healthy till the day she passed away at the age of 106. Technically, buttermilk is an excellent source of protein and good bacteria. Although we cannot source real buttermilk (even in India, I think) nowadays, Lassi (made from fat-free yogurt, or Fage 0% greek yogurt in my case) is excellent in three main ways - provides 10g protein per 100g/4 tbsp (mixed in a cup of water for lassi), full of good bacteria and quenches thirst/hunger ( to avoid snacking between meals).

    Hello Sir! Your videos are super helpful and educative! Thank u for sharing your knowledge about maintaining a healthy diet & healthy body! May I ask which brand of protein powder do you consume because pertaining to the possibility of the harmful ingredients in some I don't want to risk my health by choosing the wrong protein powder
  • @krafty654321
    Dr Pal, thank you for sharing such insights. There is a popular drink in the northern states of Bihar and UP by the name of ‘Sattu’, it is basically roasted gram flour, do you think it can be consumed as a protein drink on a daily basis?
  • I like these videos: they are funny, informative and contain important advice for those who are on the weight loss journey or thinking about losing some weight. However, I'd say, based on my experience as well as others, that keeping your weight in a healthy range is more challenging than losing weight. People who lost weight often got there by forcing some habits like going to the gym, watching what they eat, etc. When they do this over a period of 6 months, 1 year, 2 year, they lose weight and even reach a healthy range....but once they get off the habits that they forced themselves into for weight loss, their weight starts creeping back up and within a couple of years further down the road, they find themselves back to square one ! So make sure whatever habits you inculcate, including carrying weight scale to the restaurant to weigh your biriyani or eating high-protein diet and lifting weights in gym, you are in a position to maintain those habits lifelong ! Honestly the diet part is the most important and is the hardest to maintain !! Otherwise your weight loss journey is going to be a short-lived one.

    Dr. Pal - I weigh 157 lbs and 96 cm waist. Your videos are an eye opener. Learning to fast. Please let me know what shd be my protein intake. Also if you can recommend over the counter protein powders for reference will help. Need to lose 15 lbs.
  • @subhashini6459
    My weight - 91kg waist circumference- 48”. 30+ yrs i have not listened to anyone including my parents. Being a Water sprinkled donkey now your videos are like Nesamani’s Hammer Hit going straight inside my head !! Thanks @DrPal for your continuous efforts to inspire lot of people like me. Now though 100% am not into intermittent fasting am conscious about my food and water intake after sunset. Significantly feel more productive than winding myself as a lazy goose!!
