Indians eat low-nutrient food, gorge on dairy. Research finds gender, income indicators in diet.
The consumption of various foods was different among men and women. While women consumed starchy vegetables which includes potatoes, corn peas and lentils men took more non-vegetarian protein. Similarly, the difference between poor and rich varied too. The rich ate more, fruits and dairy items.
Indians consume more dairy products than healthier fruits and vegetables.
The study is titled, "Dietary Patterns in North and South India". The findings are based on a survey of 8,762 adults in Sonipat in Haryana and Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh in 2019.
My take
Diet without any emphasis on nutritional aspects seems to be the norm. Quantity rather than quality is worked on!
Tailpiece.
Got up at 20' past 5, the chores and was ready by 10.
Lekha had gone to the kizhakkenada to get a few repairs carried out on certain utensils.
The Vikram lander of the Chandrayaan-3 touched the south pole of the Moon and created history at 3minutes past 6, this evening, IST.
