I am not sure if your questions is - Are there plant based sources of Vit B12 pills? - Can I get B12 from plants? For the answer to question 1, yes there are B12 pills available in the market which is from a plant based source. Unived.in sells these. Look for 1500mcg Methylcobalamin . For the second part of the question, B12 is not made by plants or animals. It is made from bacteria. Keep your gut healthy, soak in natural elements like sun, air, water, earth, organic foods etc to allow ood B12 generation by the body.

Hi all, our bodies signal even the minutest one is actually body’s greatest communication tool. It is telling you that you need to do some correction. Our body maintains an acid-alkaline balance, and every time we put more load on the body through wrong foods, late hours, no time to rest and repair, and no time for outdoors activity the body accumulates a lot of acidity called toxins. Dry skin and dry lips is a clear indication that you need to up your raw to create that much needed balance. Creams and oils, will only provide external relief but root cause remains same that body needs internal hyrdration at cellular level. Along with these you need to figure out what is causing all the ‘drying up’ i.e lack of rest, lack of proper sleep, too much ‘ontime’, too much gadget time, too less time in sunlight and fresh air. You may eat all the right foods yet, all these factors may will increase your acidic levels and thus reduce the good impact of hydrating foods. Here are few immediate actions you may take: Eating more raw, fresh, whole plant based foods. You can read about it here. Eating in accordance to Circadian Rhythm of body. You can read about it here. Sunlight and breathing are two easiest, natural and most effective way to create alkaline reserves within body and to support body to clean up effectively. So increase your time for both. Start slow, 15 minutes daily. Increase it slowly and steadily. Sleeping & resting: Allow enough downtime to your body. Reduce the load of gadgets as they also consume your energy and increase acidic load. Give yourself enough downtime in evening towards night to ensure body continues to be in rhythm of nature.

Keep your meal portions small. Incorporate a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables. Be sure to eat fruits alone, not mixed with other meal items. Also do know, that nature has designed procreation in such a way that, at this moment your baby will derive all the nourishment from your reserves. So the eating is to replenish your reserves. The nausea is a phase, and feel reassured that desire to eat will come back, which is when the baby needs real nourishment.
My 3 year old son just vomited. What to do in this kind of situation?

Vomiting is body’s way of cleansing. Don't force him to eat anything. Let him rest. When he feels hungry, give him his favourite fruit and when he feels thirsty, give him coconut water. Let him take plenty of rest, symptoms will subside on its own.
Is there a way to cook my favourite dish 'aloo matar' in a healthy way?
Swatantra

The most simple way of doing same is by steaming. Steaming helps to retain the nutritional value. Steam potato, peas and tomatoes. In your cooking pan, add little water and roast onion. Then add steamed tomatoes and prepare gravy. Add your required species and add steamed potatoes and peas. Garnish same with coriander leaves and enjoy your healthy way of favourite Aloo Matar. Hope it turns out good.
I have been feeling very thirsty off late n have been sipping water often. What could be the reason?

You may notice that sipping only water may not be really quenching your thirst. Excessive thirst indicates the following: Your ‘energy consumption’ is higher vs. what you are adding to replenish. That your consumption of raw hydrating foods is lower vs. cooked foods that demand more water for digestion That you may be spending a lot of energy through overactive mind, work office stress, anxious emotions etc. This is heating you up That your recharging of the body and cooling down through natural means is on lower side ie through connecting with sunshine, grass fresh air, and nature overall is low. When excessive thirst strikes best is to up your fruits intake. You can increase this amply and feel the difference. Eat seasonal fruits and a variety. Start your day with good 2-3 rounds of fruits; each time eat till you are full and wait for an hour or so for hunger to strike again then eat another round. Fruits take the least amount of energy to digest and have almost 90% + water content, which is easily absorbed by our bodies so do not undermine this! Soaking dry fruits and having them is another way of eating fruits and keeping yourself hydrated. Cut down you tea, coffee, and any other sources of caffeine. Similarly cut down your packages processed foods drastically which are high on sugar and salt (ie bread, market bought sauces, refined oil, refined flour, refined sugar, table salt etc). Instead every time you feel thirsty, go for a fruit (Yes, it works!). Only thing you have to remember is to eat the fruit alone either 30-45 minutes before meals or 2 hours after.
Chopped Cucumber Coconut Salad
Available in abundance during the summer months, cucumber is the king of vegetables for a summer salad.With its high water content, its a must have to keep you hydrated in summers.

Add a different nut (coconut, peanut, sesame) and it lends more variety.This recipe puts together crunchy cucumbers with fresh coconut. It's a very basic, quick to do salad with a south Indian style tempering. Goes well with a simple dal-chawal meal or can be served with almost anything.
Peaches, Mango And Banana Juice
Fruit smoothies are a great way of increasing your raw intake. They also lend texture and variety to your fruit-eating ways. In this recipe, three easily available summer fruits are simply put together to get a wonderful summer smoothie. It's a good replacement to dairy based shakes and is additionally sweetened using natural sweetener - dates or honey. So, add variety along with nutrition to your summer breakfast or offer to kids when a “little hungry” in the evening! Its surely satiating! Do note, that peaches areavailable for only a very short while in summers. So make the most ofit when there. If you cannot find it, simply banana and mango make yummy combination too
Hara Bhara Kabab (Cutlets with greens)
