Ragi has high protein content, minerals , antioxidants, and fights diabetes and cancer as many believe and it is a very good diet . You can make many recipes with it Traditionally, ragi is given to infants and young children as a ragi malt because it is easier to digest, though it’s nutritional value is somewhat decreased. Ragi reduces “bad” cholestrol, prevents cardiovascular disease

Milk, fruit juices and barley are good options as well. The emphasis in this diet should be on raw or lightly cooked vegetables and fresh fruits. The main motive behind a typhoid patient's diet is to supply proper nutrition, and to balance the water and electrolyte proportion in the patient's body.

Yes, you can have it for breakfast. You can also team it up with a fruits.
However, if you are trying to lose weight, only having ragi won't help. You may also need to make some other diet and lifestyle modifications.

Dear lybrate-user, babies should not be exposed to any kind of strong/intense odour/ fragrance.
There is no additional harmful effect of alcohol and cigarette smell than others.
But offcourse, as suggested by my dear colleague doctors, smoking should be quit as soon as possible. It is harmful for everyone, directly and indirectly.
Take care.

It is better to take these injections for lung maturity as in twins premature delivery is common and if that happens lack of lung maturity causes big problems to babies. Doctor prescribing always weighs advantages against disadvantages before advising. In trying to avoid disadvantages you miss out on advantages.

No, not at all.
If your child is normal now, he will be normal forever. Very rarely some preterm babies will have developmental problems which can be detected early.

Hi lybrate-user. Avoid maida based items like mom is pasta pizza noodles etc
don't skip meals. Don't take too long gaps between meals. This slows your metabolism try to do moderate exercise.
