What is the recommended diet plan for staying healthy and fit?
Hi doctor,
I am a social media influencer, and my content mainly focuses on fitness, diets, and lifestyle. Over the past two to three years, I have tried many fad diets, including the ketogenic diet, which I followed on and off for a year. I even managed to lose 20 pounds with the help of the keto diet. However, during a recent routine check-up, I discovered that I am anemic and have high cholesterol levels. My doctor said that this is happening because of the diets I follow. He said my diet lacks nutrients and important elements. Can you please guide me in formulating a diet suitable for me? I want to be healthy and fit. Also, please tell me if there is a risk of developing osteoporosis if I continue to follow such diets.
Thank you.
