Insights into Healthy Living: Key Takeaways from the India TV Wellness Conclave

The India TV Speed News Wellness Conclave recently convened renowned health experts Dr. Dheeraj Dubey, Dr. Sameer Bhati, and Prof. Prasanta Kumar Patra to share crucial insights on achieving a healthier lifestyle.

During a conversation, Dr. Sameer Bhati pointed out that many Indians are experiencing declining health largely due to disrupted sleep cycles. He stressed that a lack of proper rest contributes to a myriad of health issues, making exercise crucial for a better quality of life.

Exercise and Nutrition

Prof. Patra emphasized the necessity of regular exercise, pranayama, and a balanced diet. ‘To lead a healthy life, one must integrate physical activities into their daily routine and avoid eating after 8 PM,’ he recommended.

Joint Health Concerns

Dr. Dheeraj Dubey raised concerns about the rising prevalence of joint issues among younger adults, especially those working from home. He noted that difficulty in taking the first few steps may signal the onset of arthritis, urging individuals to seek orthopedic consultations rather than relying on painkillers for symptom relief.

The Role of Sleep

Both Dr. Dubey and Prof. Patra highlighted the critical role of sleep hygiene. They advised against using mobile devices immediately upon waking or right before sleep, as it could disrupt brain waves and lead to health problems.

Obesity and Diet

In addressing obesity, Dr. Bhati noted that simply walking is insufficient. He urged young adults to boost their metabolism through a traditional Indian diet, warning that low metabolism leads to higher fat and lower muscle mass.

Nutritional Advice

According to Dr. Dubey, dairy products, especially yogurt, are vital for joint health. He also urged an increased intake of vitamin D from sunlight and incorporation of vitamin C-rich foods into the diet.

Heart Health Maintenance

Dr. Bhati suggested that individuals undergo health screenings such as diabetes and cholesterol tests prior to engaging in strenuous activities. He reiterated the significance of incorporating breathing exercises into one’s routine.

The Importance of Cardio

Lastly, Dr. Dubey advised that cardio workouts should be engaged only twice a week to optimally maintain health.
