1. Diet tip of the day

Are you an eggetarian? Then let me tell you that the healthiest way to have them is either by poaching or boiling to get the maximum amount of nutrients of it. For the unversed, cooking almost destroys the nutrients of the egg.

2. Workout tip of the day

It is very important to have pre-workout and post-workout meals. The same will not only fuel your workouts but also help your body to replenish following a gruelling session. Some of the best pre and post-workout meals are bananas, nut butters, protein shakes, eggs, sweet potatoes and black coffee among others.

Just like PUBG, Call of Duty aka COD is quite popular among Millenials. It is a first-person shooter game and has mind-blowing detailing and graphics.

4. Skin care tip of the day

You can either go for Vitamin C oral supplements or serums and IV infusions.
