Stay healthy with seasonal and sensible eating: Your easy guide

by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments
Eating local and seasonal is an important part of a healthy diet- but far from the most important one. Here’s all you need to know. As humans, we are naturally omnivorous, meaning we consume both animal and plant-based foods. Our evolution as hunter-gatherers centered around animal foods, as our gut is designed for meat digestion due to its acid-dominant composition. Although we did consume plant foods in limited amounts, we had to be cautious as plants have defence mechanisms such as chemicals and poisonous compounds to ward off predators. Our ancestors had the knowledge and skills to forage for safe and edible plant varieties and parts, and cooking was used to further make them edible. However, as urban animals living in concrete jungles with year-round access to any vegetable or fruit, we must learn to eat sensibly. It is important to select and grow the right kind of plant-based foods and prepare them properly to avoid or minimise harmful effects caused by defense chemicals and anti-nutrients like lectins, oxalates, phytates, etc. found in plant foods. Here’s everything you should know from Mugdha Pradhan, the expert functional nutritionist who is also the CEO and Founder of iThrive.   HOW IMPORTANT IS […]
