WHAT to eat during eating window to keep yourself full? - ft. Ms. Varsha (Dietician) | Dr Pal 

Look at the humbleness of this Dr.. even though he himself is an expert in what/what-not/when to eat.. he just listens to Varsha like a school kid. Respect !!. Btw please say my hello to Saravana Kumar ;-)

By the way Dr Pal, your audience is not just South Indian. I am from Delhi. I and many of my friends here also watch your videos / shorts. You do well in your comic and satirical presentation of facts and Nutrition recommendations. Especially when referencing your friend Sarvana Kumar. 😂. So best if you pls continue to converse in English pls. 🙏❤️🌸

Dr. Pal your viewers are now all Indians and non-indians, not just south Indians. Would appreciate if the conversation is in English or CC is added when the conversation goes non-english so that we're not lost in midway and able to follow your great advices!

I love Dr.Pal for the way he delivers the message with fun. Until now I never come across a doctor who enjoys his profession beyond clients like sharing their knowledge with a mix of some comedy in between... Thanks Dr.Pal.

Dr Pal, I love your videos. And I’m a North Indian living in Bombay. Your knowledge wrapped in humour is finding new fans around the country and world. More power to you :)

I found the video of Dr. Pal out of nowhere . I was just listening to him and thought of sharing with my husband. And something impossible happened ( which is now very much possible ) he lost 3 kgs in the last 9 days due to eating by 7 pm and not eating untill next day until 7 am. Have regulated walking for 45 mins as well. We are changing the lifestyle. Kudos to you Mr. Pal.

Have been listening to Dr Pal for about 3 days now. After having trying to understand intermittent fasting for years on RU-vid I finally feel I do now only watching his videos. Sir - your viewers are from North as well like me 😊

Hi Dr. Pal, this is Dr. Asha from TN. I am on time restricted diet for the past 6 months and have lost 8 kgs. I'm testing it over myself to see the changes so that I can suggest it to my patients. And so long it's working fantastic. Intermittent fasting literally stops craving . I eat ice-cream, eating out in a restaurant or even do dinner parties occassionally. The dietician is encouraging local food I appreciate that. Many people suddenly shift to wierd diet plans ditching their traditional/ local food. I encourage my patients to eat local food and avoid all snacking ( chips/ muruku etc). Discourage patients to eat evening snack and adviced them to have their dinner. It works wonders. IMF is helping diabetics to bring down their insulin dosage. Thank you for sharing your experience and bringing in inspiration to others. 👍

I loved the very Jovial conversation between Dr Pal and Varsha. I was also blown away by the information that dhal has more carbs than protein. for ex I just found out that 100 gms raw moong dhal has 63 gms of carb vs only 24 gms of protein. This info is going to be a game changer for me.

I'm a srilankan living in Australia Thanks for translating in English. It helps a lot for people like us

Thank you Dr Pal and thank you to Varsha for simplifying the meaning of a "balanced diet'. Your content is so good, that non-Tamils would be interested in watching your channel, too, if they understood the Tamil language. I am a Tamil living outside my homeland and would love to share this video. However, I hesitate, as the " Tamil banters" create confusion for the non-tamil speaking audience, which includes my family. I, personally, enjoy your incredible contents as well as the familiarity of the foods and language. I have learnt so much today. Dr Pal, you are a awesome presenter. You keep it real.

De Pal, I just love what you do. I appreciate ur desire to incite us to be better gate keepers of our health. May God cont to bless you for what you do. 💐💐👏👏👏👍🏼🙏🏽✌️

Dr. Pal - Thankyou very much for bringing Varsha to your show. This was extremely informative!! I hope you interview her again soon with other nutrition questions. I will see if she has her own RU-vid channel called Optimum nutrition protocol.

Thank you so much bringing varsha in your discussion. Iam religiously following your time restricted diet.I was 97.7kg before 6months,&now iam 82.4kg. Almost 15.3kg lost...thank you so much for your motivation &support. Iam drinking 1tbsp soaked Chia seed in lemon water around 6pm.This will suppress your hunger .Then your dinner intake will be less.

Nutritionist Varsha seems to have good knowledge about what to eat & what not to ...I'm impressed & hopefully could get her appointment one day ....The way she is speaking & handling the conversation is impressive as well...She is expressing her knowledge very well & bold enough to come forward in public & speak fearlessly ....

Doctor seeing and hearing you I lost 5 kg now I am 49 kg and left my bp tablet thank you

Excellent speech by both of u I am a dr. It helps me a lot to guide pts in the right way. How nice of her to tell about our country vegetables in our soil 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Dr you are awesome 🙏. Great society reform. Mad fan of yours. Trying to follow your time restricted feeding 12 hours.I lost 1 kg in 2 months. Pretty slow but I'm very interested to continue and motivated

I’m not South Indian but I love your videos and find them very helpful … in this video I was missing valuable info when you both started speaking your South Indian dialect. 😔

Thank you Dr Pal. I am a regular watcher of your channel. Thank you for all the good Advice. This program very useful and Varsha gave us very useful and practical tips to manage the “ Battle of Bulge”! ( I am a former military man!) Thank you Varsha.

Definitely a very informative video. I’m a great fan of the way you deliver the content and am consciously trying to follow time restrictive feeding. One thing I felt about this video is you kept interrupting her and didn’t allow her to complete whatever she wanted to say. So we didn’t get many actual food options for dinner, especially for vegetarians who don’t eat even egg.

My wife was a client of varsha brilliant dietitian she guided her with utmost care during her pregnancy (having gestational diabetes) we have a healthy baby boy thanks a ton Dr pal for bringing her as a guest

It was a great session Dr. Pal and Varsha ma'am 😍 Thankyou so much for this informative plenary. Really awaiting for more and more insights from you varsha ma'am ✌🏻

Dr Pal,I have been watching your video's for about 3 days and you are really an amazing doctor. Keep up the outstanding personality. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.Will continue watching.God bless you and your family.

Actually I started to eat by 7 pm but couldn't manage my hunger after that. Got right information at the right time. Thank you so much doctor.

Dr Pal is very good In addition, Dr Varsha is absolutely fantastic...so down to earth, intelligent and balanced in her advocacy of nutrition esp. Local food items Thanks

Wonderful and very useful discussion 👍 Hats off to you both Thanks Dr Pal and Ms Varsha

Kudos! Extremely informative! As you rightly pointed out, lots of myths when it comes to the composition of a diet. Would request you to do more videos in this topic, especially for Indian vegetarians.

For sprouting, we have to wash and soak the grams /pulses for 6 to 8hrs and then wrap it with a thin cloth in a warm place for 12 to 24 hrs

Shez right once we start time restricted eating then we dnt feel hungry at all.. slowly i hv started eating only two meals.. came down frm 96 to 91 so far.. Thank u Dr Pal..

Dr. Thanks for your effort in arranging for a nutritionist. Benefited a lot with a deep details on nutrient

First time I have seen a doctor is allowing a nutritionist to speak more and listening to her even though he knows it all 👍

Very nice. Please do part 2 and can you please tell one whole day( breakfast+lunch+dinner) for both vegetarian and non vegetarian as an example for South Indians.

Thank you so much Dr.pal for this amazing video. It's really informative. It's an eye opener for me to start my diet during my weight loss challenge. Thanks a lot

Oh my gosh! Im learning and loving this! My eyes are watering! Thank you so much Dr. Pal! God Bless You!

Hi Dr Pal.. Normally I won't comment on videos. But I should say this.. You are an amazing person.. I am doing intermittent fasting for 6 to 7 years and it changed my life.. Now I am doing 20 hours of fasting and 4 hours eating on most days.. I did fasting even while i was pregnant.. I am overweight even now. But I am healthier from within. Thank you for spreading the message of fasting...

Thank You very much for this session with Ms.Varsha. Got a Lear picture of what’s in the food we are eating. When my 82 year old mother had a rise in Uric acid level I stopped using dal in any form. Looking forward to many more eye opener sessions.

Great session. I had been a client of Varsha and it helped me a lot to turn towards healthy mindful eating

Hey Doc I'm a north Indian but I like the knowledge you share with everyone here

Another great video to enlighten the community.. thank you Dr!

Excellent ideas.Varsha clearly explained and cleared my doubts and worry about proteins. All the vegetables especially sprouting veggies have enough proteins and we never feel bloated like meats👍👍

Thank you! Busted my myth on protein. Very very informative.

So many useful clarifications. Thanks to both.

Doc and Varsha: thank you both for your useful discussion on the Dos and Don’ts of Time Restricted Eating habits. It was a good presentation. Kindly advise on 2 topics:- a. inclusion of Curd/ Buttermilk in foods and use of milk (like Aavin’s for folks in TN) and b. Please provide more options/examples for Vegetarians especially for Senior Citizens. Much appreciate your efforts and time in answering these questions besides for your very user-friendly presentation. It’s truly going beyond your call of duty and truly altruistic to share such important insights in an open forum amidst the crass commercialism that abounds any society. God bless you both and your ilk! Gurumurti Natarajan, Chennai

Our Indian tradition protein foods are karamani payaru (both red and white) Mochai payaru (white , black and red) Thatta payaru Plus Peanuts . Fry with ginger onion and garlic.Rich in protein.It is our traditional food source. Add grated coconut. Nowadays coconut has become hybrid. It lost its beauty

Thanks , Ms. Varsha, for your v informative session . You cleared few protein related myths . I am a South Indian from Karnataka. So, could understand a bit of Tamil ( tamilian friends ) but, please could you translate into English for your other viewers . Would appreciate it 😊

All are kinda my questions....may be few were stupid(from my pov) or meaning full I thought asking my dietician ...but thought ..may be she thinks I'm so dumb.....thank goodness you both answered...love you loads...pal and varsha...much needed clarified session...sure we need this kinda videos...loved it every minute...

Hi DR. Pal. I bumped into your channel and have been following it lately, watching your recent videos as well as videos from the past like this one from a year ago. I really like your content and appreciate it. I'd like to request you to add subtitles in English to this video for parts not spoken in English because I do not understand them.

Thank you so much Dr Pal and Varsha ma'am, very informative video.would like to get pros / cons on consuming protein powder and healthy ideas on South Indian breakfast and lunch . 🙏

It was so informative especially the dals and the protein part of it. Please make a part 2 of this episode.

Dr pal I am39 years and since last one year I have extreme more gas in my stomach 2 weeks before my periods and I have stomach pain at midnight. I consulted gynaecologist and they did every test and told me I have more gas in my stomach and asked me to go to gastroenterologist and do full test but I followed ur videos and stopped eating before 7 and it helped me thank you

Very informative video thank u so much varsha and Dr. Pal

Very informative Dr. Pal & Varsha ma'am. A lot of myths were broken (Channa & Lentil are natural proteins). Thank you both!

Such a detailed session on Nutrition, very informative one!

Very good talk. Very informative. Thanks Dr. Pal and Varsha

Very good points and good takeaways from this for a south Indian. Especially on the sprouts to be used in our normal cooking.

I absolutely love your talks, Dr. Pal. My only complaint (and it seems to be the same from a lot of those commenting) is that please restrict your language to English. Those like us who don't understand Tamil miss out on whatever you are saying.🙏🏽🙏🏽

Dear doctor you are really wonderful in providing important medical information to general public. we are grateful to you.

This is a very informative interview. So many insights! 😍

Thanks alot to both of you for Providing very useful information for maintaining good health 🙏

Hello Dr, Much awaited vidoe. Must of us after watching all your videos started IMF, but we were not aware what to eat. This video provided some informations on carbs, protein, fat. Thanks Dr Since most of your subscribers are South Indians, we would like to hear what should we eat for(Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner) for both vegetarians and non vegetarians in detail. Waiting for next part

Hi Doc...just one clarification needed..if soya chunks is good source of protein for vegetarians...then starts my next confusion.....is soya chunks considered processed food...then what is the impact on gut health??? Kindly clarify my confusion

Very informative. Thanks Dr. Pal & Varsha.

Wonderful session…… The way you take the channel is awesome

Great eye opener 👀 video. Thank you Ms.Varsha and Dr.Pal. Now I understand what I was doing wrong in time restricted Feeding. My fitness pal kept saying me I am not eating enough protein, I thought it was a bug in their system. How dumb I am for thinking dal as a protein source. Waiting for your next video.

Dr can u explain the soya chunk and phytoestrogen theory? How much soyachunks are safe to take everyday and what happens when too much of it is consumed?

Doctor I really followed your channel and understood the concept of of eating window. Following nearly 99%.after 7 months of period I lowerd my hba1c from 5.9 to 5.3.from 226 cholesterol to 128.from 126 ldl to 61.from 62kg to 53.7.i am 55 years old and 25 years of hypo thyroid. Thanks for your videos.

Dr pal sir very useful tips you are giving and educating the society. Sir i am a defence person our unit added 70% wheat 10% jawar and 10% bajara to make roti every day and it helps us .

Very useful Doctor...for all Tamil speaking people in particular. Thank you for this Dr. Pal and Ms. Varsha

Can you please explain how much of sprouting ? Just little bit of green or we should see a long shoot of the plant from a bean? Please clarify the right sprout growth level to maximize protein

Hello Doctor I am north Indian but I enjoy your video.

Very useful information and wonderful discussion thanks to Dr Pal and Dr varsha.

Dr. Pal your videos are very motivating. After I started listening to your videos I became very conscious about intake. Please clarify this doubt.. I heard that sprouts and Soya and soya based products are not good for Thyroid . If a person is taking treatment for Thyroid is it good to take these protein rich items? Or is it a myth? Kindly clarify

Hung curd water has whey protein in it. It can be used too.

Super doctor Pal and Varsha.. nice episode!! you talked about amylase.. could you please tell us more about the benefits of amylase? Does it help in reducing grey hair, slow the ageing process, etc.. Also more about benefits and side effects of any, with whey protein., for gym goers.. Also drinking water - is it ok to drink water while eating?

Very helpful podcast. Thank you Dr pal.

Mr.pal....I am great fan of urs... I lost 10 kg in 4 month by intermittent fasting 16:8... I m really grateful to u....

This girl really helped in sorting out protein n fibre in our indian food... Awesome varsha... Am expecting more interview s with her with our indian food for IF... Thanku u mr. Pal for this video ... .

Thanks for the effort doc!👍

Hello Dr Pal...what can we eat for dinner during intermittent fasting.

Wonderful session with her. Many of my questions answered and the same for others I believe. I like the part , “don’t go fancy on your meals instead make it simple with whatever available at your end”. Rightfully said by her. Go for locally produced vegetables and fruits. Thank you Dr.Pal and Ms.Varsha.

Wonderful doc! Got an idea about managing protein from the video. I am doing time restricted eating for 3 years now. 12 -8 eating window most of the time and 24 hour fasting once in 20 days.i reduced to 62 from 76 with the help of running and yoga. In my personal opinion you get control over hunger by doing yoga or other exercise along with diet.

Thank you Ms. Varsha & Dr. Paal. That was an excellent workshop!

Sprouted பச்சை பயறு, கொண்டைக்கடலை, ஆகியவற்றை சுண்டல் செய்து சாப்பிடலாம்.low carb diet ‌and fibre ku அடை செய்து சாப்பிடலாம்.அடை செய்யும் போது புழுங்கல் அரிசி அல்லது brown rice குறைந்த அளவு போட்டு பருப்பு வகைகளை அதிகம் சேர்த்து செய்யலாம்.மிகவும் பயனுள்ள வீடியோ, மிக்க நன்றி 🙏🙏

Thank you Dr.Pal for the information. I also learnt that we might have to be careful about the protein powders, especially the soy protein isolates and whey protein, which seem to be stressing the liver. Your views on this could help everyone. Also, the cruciferous vegetables , made as a simple south Indian poriyal help a lot with cleansing liver and adding much needed fiber. Yes, brocolli could be expensive in India, but cabbage and cauliflower are other wonderful cruciferous types to consider. I am finding them helping with my gi issues. Adding ginger and hing helps reduce their gas. They are supposed to keep the hormones in check. Again, your views here could benefit everyone. I am not trying for weight loss, but the time gap between my dinner and breakfast is making my weight go down considerably. My goal is to improve gut microbiome, better hormonal balance and less inflammation in the body, better mental clarity and overall energy improvement. But weight loss seems to be a side effect. I eat dinner at 8 pm, breakfast by 10 am. Since dinner is not so early, I don't feel hungry at bedtime. But due to a good night sleep, I am not hungry in the morning as well. I make sure to eat a good dinner so I have energy in the morning. 2 to 3 glasses of water keep me going till breakfast. Another trick I learnt to fight hunger is to take a nice shower at that time. It tricks the system and pushes off the hunger feeling. A real hunger is not when the stomach just growls. It is when we start to feel a slight dip in energy level or slight dip in mental clarity. Without delaying further, eating then and eating well helps.

Please do part 2 for the same discussion it's interesting and informative

Awesome sir nicely done 👍 superb experience Super information 👍

Dear Dr Pal, Recently I watched your videos which all are very useful to all category of people. I am at the ago of 50, your diet advice and time line for food intake are helping me to keep myself active with energy. Thanks for your service. With Regards, Kannan V, Chennai.

With cucumber u can sprinkle lime juice too /green gram sprouted with cut pieces of cucumber , tomato n lime juice with minimal salt makes a great salad . Or with split moong soaked n drained of water mixed with above mix makes a great food among people in Karnataka . We make this during Rama Navami .

I would appreciate if you and your guests would use a common language please. Even though South Indians are a bigger audience on your channel but definitely other people like me who are not South Indian also watch your channel and miss the important information when it’s communicated in South Indian language.

Thank you🙏 so much sir, very informative topic

Awesome Doc, thanks for bringing on a nutritionist

Yes Dr. After started following the time restricted feeding diet, I eat twice a day. Breakfast at 9.00am and go to office and have my lunch cum dinner by 4.00 pm. That's all. I got use to this in the past one month. Lost around 3.5kgs of weight too. But lost deep sleep at night. I sleep with a kind of alertness which is not my usual nature. It is because of empty stomach I think. I would like to hear your comment/ suggestions on this.

Hello Doc, There were no plant- based options suggested except for soya .. Soya apparently messes with the hormones in women, and isn't recommended... Could you please suggest plant- based protein options...?

Excellent Dr pal and varsha 👍👍👍👍 fou you'r motivation 👍👍👍👍 great job🙏🙏🙏🙏thankyou Dr 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you very much for this content 🙏It was so informative. Keep up the good work Dr. Pal 💓

Clear explanation sis 👌 👏 👍

🔴🔴🔴🔴 Tnq for your videos Doctor .The Guest Doctor is very right by saying that nowadays generation thinks that they should have only expensive broccoli and capsicum like stuff to eat and have only fancy soups and breads to loose weight … like my children, I’m struggling a lot to plan meals , like we are 3 generations in a South Indian family it becomes so tough to cater to the needs , they even think that watermelon and mangoes can’t be taken because of high sugar , they think they have to starve too . They don’t believe in poriyals and rasam which are our staples and our idlis and dosas or South Indian tiffins .. How to make them understand plz advise . 🔴🔴 By advising to this query I think You will be able to address the problems faced by many families like me who are at their wits ends . 🔴🔴 And I have one more humble request to do the videos icompletely in English because you change the language to Tamil or Malayalam because obvious it’s your mother tongue ,other ppl from diffferent languages miss on some valuable information. Tnq Doctor . I will wait for your valuable advise . I hope you can address my concerns plz …

Thanks Sir, for the guidance on vital aspects in such simple and practical manner...

Thank you 🙏Dr.Pal. Really appreciate your effort by encouraging people to follow healthy life style .
