Most Indian parents eat far more carbohydrates than they realise, because this is how meals have been structured for decades. Breakfast usually begins with paratha, bread, poha, or upma. Lunch is roti with sabzi, and dal, while dinner is described as “light”, which again means one roti or a small bowl of rice. Throughout the day, protein disappears from the plate, replaced by carbohydrates that feel filling but do very little to preserve muscle or regulate hunger. So, would a simple Indian diet without any fancy ingredients help provide wholesome nutrition, while keeping a calorie deficit and helping with weight loss? Yes, it’s totally possible with just everyday food. We’ll see how, stay with us.
