Obesity is a very common yet very alarming public health problem. It is a risk factor for several other serious health issues. Recent studies have proved that the Ketogenic diet is an effective tool of weight loss along with several other therapeutic benefits for curing disorders such as Type 2 diabetes, Epilepsy etc. This article therefore aims to check respondents' lifestyle and their awareness about ketogenic diet through the various sources of information, constituents for ketogenic diet, knowledge, purpose and usefulness of ketogenic diet, types, metabolic effect, side effects, willingness to adopt and their recommendations to others as half – baked information received from random sources and adopted without the supervision and guidance from professional therapists can lead to potential harm. A questionnaire- based survey was conducted in 240 students in the age group of 18 – 25 years to check their awareness. 64.9% were not aware about Ketogenic diet and believed that ketogenic diet helps in weight loss, bodybuilding and muscle toning, which is not the purpose of ketogenic diet. 51.2% of respondents did not know about its other emerging therapeutic potentials.Keywords

In recent years, country has seen a rise in new trend in adopting plant-based diets which could be due to a variety of reasons- environmental consciousness, affection for animals, social justice or a bid to end world hunger for materialist society and so on and so forth. Whatever be the reasons, all of them have led to one definite conclusion- a decrease in the carbon footprint generated by an individual. To know the individual's preferred diet, reasons for adopting and to educate the youth of informed advantages of adopting such dietary habits, a cross-sectional study was done through an online survey among various youth. It was observed that a growing consciousness has led them to adoptbetter health choices and environment-friendly decisions, despite many of them selecting reason for eating meat or dairy products as a “personal taste”. They also agreed that they would be more than happy, if made aware to switch over to a diet which would have less impact on the environment. This article deals with an increased consciousness of adopting healthier, more beneficial, and more environmentally viable food habits among the younger population. To establish this fact, a survey was conducted in Delhi/NCR region using Google forms amid the lockdown period of Covid-19 pandemic. Results show that the concerted efforts of the individuals towards achieving this task may enable them to reduce global carbon footprints by 29-70%. Through this study, efforts have also been made to educate young individuals about these healthy and less polluting lifestyle practices which may help reduce their individual contribution to the global environmental crisis.Keywords

Several women's bodies and physiologies undergo physical and physiological changes approximately a week before their menstrual cycle. PMS develops when these symptoms return before each cycle and begin to interfere with a woman's health and daily life. PMS is defined as a set of physical, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms that occur during the luteal phase of menstruation. The cross-sectional study aims to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practise of PMS among female students of MRIIRS, Faridabad. The results showed that majority of the females knew what PMS is. The analysis showed that majority of the women experienced mood swings, irritability, anger, anxiety etc. To ease the symptoms they drank plenty of water, consumed only minerals and vitamins. Majority did not take any medications for this. We can conclude from this research that PMS is a complex but very curable illness.Keywords
