Can you lose weight with Indian food?

 While most diet types are inspired from the west, we often stop eating our Indian food in an attempt to follow them and lose weight. However, such weight loss is often temporary and eating foods which are not part of your cultural palate on a daily basis might not prove to be beneficial for your body.

Celebrity nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar has often advocated that to stay healthy and slim, we should eat what our grandmothers ate or cooked when we were young. This is because they possess the cultural wisdom which is ideal for our bodies.

Different places have different cuisines based on what raw ingredients are naturally available there, the seasons in that place and the kind of nutrients that are necessary based on your body type, climate etc.

Fitness trainer and nutrition coach Tanvi in a recent video on her Instagram handle talked about how to deconstruct your Indian food plate so that you can enjoy your home-cooked delicious food and lose weight and stay lean.

The Indian diet is packed with a variety of flavours and colours which makes this cuisine unique. Indian food has a wide variety of vegetables and fruit, such as spinach, aubergine and mango. It is also high in fibre and low in saturated fats. Indian food, if prepared rightly, can turn out to be super healthy for you. It is packed with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals -- all of which are essential for a healthy weight loss journey.
