I don't eat it "recently".

I've learned that the word "recently" should be used with past tence or present perfect. So it's correct to say "I don't eat it these days" rather than "I don't eat it recently".
But I found an entry on an online dictionary ; "Recently, though, she seems to have run out of energy."

Question 1: Which is correct
A) "I don't eat it these days"or
B) "I don't eat it recently".

Question 2: can you say,
"these days, though, she seems to have run out of energy."

Thanks
