Achieve Your Wellness Goals: The Best Diet Plan According to Dietician Priyanka

Diets are not only for weight loss. It's true that healthy modification in your diet and lifestyle is one of the best way to lose weight, it also helps to increase memory power, boost immunity, improve energy level and stamina. A healthy diet also helps to reduce some of the unhealthy symptoms like gastric problems such as excessive gas or acidity, body pain, irregular periods, hair fall and protect us from non communicable diseases like diabetes, PCOS, hypertension, high cholesterol, cancer etc..



So, here I am sharing one of the healthiest diet that many offer other health benefits that go beyond weight loss.

A healthiest diet is one which is focused on  whole cereals, orange and green vegetables, legumes, citrus and dark colored fruits, curd, nuts, seeds, herbs, and spices. Natural oil like cold pressed mustard oil, coconut oil, olive oil and pure desi ghee is the main source of fat. 

This diet is considered one of the most healthful dietary patterns all over the world because it contains food items which is rich in fiber, antioxidants and probiotics that helps to improve gut health and reduce inflammation. Unhealthy gut and inflammation has been found to be a major factor in most of the non communicable diseases.

Number of studies have demonstrated a strong relationship between this diet and reduced risk of  obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, arthritis and increased life expectancy. If you don't have any health issue you can re-create your own diet plan with foods that have been mentioned above. 

Here are four basic guidelines to customize your own healthy diet

  • Include at least two serving of colorful fruits like pomegranate, papaya, watermelon, mango etc. and three servings of orange and green vegetables like pumpkin, okra or ladyfinger, cabbage, cauliflower, capsicum, spinach, coriander leaves etc..in your daily diet
  • Include probiotics like curd or lassi without salt at least once a day.
  • Add sprouts and seeds in your salads
  • Use whole cereals like Jwar, bajra, ragi, barley etc to make roti or chappati.

Apart from this don't forget to engage yourself in 30mins of physical activity daily like brisk walking, cycling, yoga, dancing, sports and other physical activity as a part of healthy lifestyle.
