What could cause weakness after switching to a vegan diet?

Question

Hi doctor,

I am a 35-year-old male, and I have encountered conflicting information about eggs and nutrition. I used to include them in my diet regularly, but concerns about cholesterol have left me confused. Are eggs good or bad for me, and what does the latest research say about their impact on cholesterol and overall health? If eggs are beneficial, how many can I consume in a day? Can you shed light on the role of eggs in a healthy diet and provide guidance for my overall well-being?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understand your concern.

Certainly, moderation is key. Ensure the source of your eggs is reliable, preferably from a farm or organic origin, and they can be a part of your daily breakfast. Consider serving two whole eggs or two whole with one egg white for larger portions.

Eggs are a rich source of proteins and antioxidants, supporting a healthy diet. With approximately 0.00003527 ounces of iron in a large egg, daily consumption aids in fighting anemia and enhancing red blood cell oxygen-carrying capacity.

Additional tips include:

1. Stay hydrated throughout the day.

2. Limit alcohol and caffeine to avoid skin dehydration.

3. Boost omega-3 intake by adding flaxseed oil or chia seeds to breakfast.

4. Ensure sufficient sleep for cell replenishing, healing, and a healthy glow.

5. Reduce processed sugars and salts to minimize inflammation and tiredness in your skin.

6. Include coconut water, green tea, and vitamin C-rich fruits for an extra glow.

I hope these tips contribute to your overall well-being.

Looking forward to your response to help you.

Thank you.
