Can I take Gainer & Protein Both?
Yes you can take them together but what is point to buy mass gainers at all.If you want to invest money than invest in on proteins not on carbohydrates.Protein is main ingredient of any many body suppliment.Protein is most expensive macronutrient among all like carbohydrates and fat.Maximum mass gainers contains around 55–65% carbohydrates(including sugar),15–25% protein and 5–10% fat.So your actually paying money for cheap stuff carbohydrates which is easily and abundantly available in many foods like potato,rice,wheat flour and white bread etc.Someone can say to me that most of the carbohydrate in our mass gainer is maltodextrin, a easily digested form of carbohydrates and it is hydrolised.Then i will say if you want to eat easily digestible hydrolised carbohydrates than go and eat sugar it is more hydrolised than maltodextrin.I know carbohydrates helps in gain weight but mass gainers are not the cost effective and intelligent way to get them.So if you are intersting in buying suppliments then invest on whey protein not on mass gainers. If you also want to take creatine then buy it separately.Diabetic should avoid mass gainers due to presence of high content of carbohydrates (complex form of sugar which may not taste sweet) otherwise take very small dose at a time and may repeat after some time.
What is your secret to glowing skin?
Believe it or not, when I was young I had this policy: “utility is more important than beauty”. But as I grew up and entered into high school, facing harsh realities of this world, I learned “both beauty and utility are of equal importance!”.So I started working on my skin…I used to look like thisPs: sorry the picture isn't clear…but I had one picture of me from that time period.So, back to the point…I started to follow a regular schedule/habit for my skin:Indeed, as said “drinking water regularly”Washing my face 3–4 times a day (can vary depending on skin type, I had oily, hence 3 to 4)Using the correct product to wash my skin. Since I had both oily _and_ dark skin. I went for something which had a minute quantity of tea tree oil in it. ( It will give you both glowing skin and also control the oil)Applied various home made facepacks to see which suited my skin the best and then continued to use them. (you can browse for them on the internet easily, though the ones containing gram flour are the best, in my opinion).Sleep is must for beautiful skin, 7–8 hours a day keeps blemishes, wrinkles and other skin problems awayLemon-yes, Lemon. The actual secret of my glowing skin is lemon (& that tea tree product, too). It just cuts the oil off my skin and de-toxifies it. I just can't stop praising it.Healthy food. One really needs to work on one's diet to have good skin. Food which compliments your skin is a must. (References to sources supporting this claim, and your other claims, are advised, per Quora's policy).Patience. I really had to have patience. You may not find any changes in one day or one week…. But if you keep trying…then surely you’ll get the skin that you want one day :)Makeup. I don't recommend makeup much. I do makeup only on special occasions. For everyday basis, I just apply a moisturizer which also acts as sunscreen, kajal (so that I don't look groggy) and a lip balm.Result:This is my present skin condition.PS: Just woke up (has been nearly hour or so) and took this picture for this answer.Edit: For pessimists, I used Redmi 3S. And for the girls or ladies out there, who think why my kajal isn't messed up, I used Colossal brand, which advertises minimum 16-hour retention. I applied it at night and clicked this pic the next morning, so there is less chance of smudging. Even if it does smudge little, I do have two working hands, which I can use to remove the excess kajal around my eyes. :p
Why don't evolutionists realize that science itself disproves evolution?
Evolutionists are NOT interested in science; or any facts which do not support their agenda. We have scientifically reached the point where the rocks are crying out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlz6rIZb5...
I have been eating a lot but my weight is still 95 pounds. What supplement should I take?
More food.Seriously, you just need to eat more.I guarantee that you aren’t eating nearly as much food as you think you, or you aren��t eating sufficiently calorically dense foods.I mean, if you eat spinach and broccoli all day long, then you aren’t going to gain weight no matter what quantity of the food you end up shoveling down your throat. You’ll just get bloated and have some serious bathroom issues.If you only weigh 95 lbs, then you probably don’t even need to eat all that much to maintain your current weight, which means gaining weight will be relatively simple. Not easy, but simple.If you are the typically skinnier person that just doesn’t have much of an appetite, then you’re going to have to go counter that, and force yourself to eat more.If you have trouble eating more, then start finding more calorically dense toppings for your food. Olive oil is always a great addition. Pour it liberally on everything and you’ll be adding a ton of calories right there. Cook in butter, and use extra if you can.Supplements are not going to help you if you aren’t eating enough.The only supplement that I might recommend is a good protein powder that you can use to get extra calories throughout the day, but that would be it.At the end of the day, get more food in you.
Is it possible to increase your height after 19?
By the age of 18 or 19, the growth in height is is complete. It is very difficult to achieve any further growth in height after this age. Do not be swayed by people who make false claims regarding medicines or surgical procedures for increasing height. However there are a few things that you can do which will make you seem taller. Maintain an ideal body weight for your height and exercise regularly to build a good physique. Dress well and appropriately in a manner that does not make you appear shorter. Above all maintain your self confidence. Remember Napoleon was not very tall neither was Winston Churchill; yet, they were some of the most powerful people in the world. Build all your other skills and your height or the lack of it will cease to matter.

What are some ways other than supplements and meal prep that you try to incorporate enough protein into your busy day for your fitness goals?
Every five to ten years, the Health Council bundles the latest scientific insights into the relationship between nutrition and health in the Good Nutrition Guidelines. The guidelines of the council are then translated by the Nutrition Center into practical advice for the consumer.In the previous guidelines the emphasis was always on nutrients, macronutrients and micronutrients. In recent years, scientists have focused less on individual nutrients, but more on the relationship between foods, dietary patterns and health. The nutrients are of course still important, but the whole is more than the sum of its parts.Not only among scientific researchers but also among nutritionists a shift in thinking is now needed from the traditional nutritional approach with the emphasis on nutrients to recommendations with foods and dietary patterns.Many American people nowadays use dietary supplements. According to the Food Consumption Survey, this is about forty percent of the American population. The question is which supplements are useful and which are not.Are we limiting our advice to vitamin D, about which the council came out in 2012, or are there also reasons to pay attention to other vitamins?The background documents form the building blocks for the final compact advice with the new guidelines. Nutritionists can then use it again to further translate it into different target groups.
