  • 80% of Indians are protein deficient, and our meals are also centered around carbohydrates traditionally. But we can easily improve our protein intake without changing too many things. Drastic changes in diet are not sustainable. Watch this video to learn how to measure protein in your plate and make the changes you need sustainably

    The facts here are presented in a crisp and detailed manner whereas Dr Pal does the same in a comical manner. Two such people are much needed to reach the masses of Indians across the globe for a healthy living.

    Loving all your videos - both content and production value, I am binge watching them everyday. In fact, I am organizing and summarizing all your videos in Notion for my reference. Hope to see a similar video for fats if possible. Thanks and keep them coming.

    Millets is a great option to be considered.
    In my place jowar (bajra in winters)rotis with dal or a vegetable/sprouts curry is a staple food.
    Ragi mudde is staple in many parts of KA.
    These days millet idlis and dosas are also in trend.
    Even millet rava(can be made at home/ flour mill) and vermicelli are good options.
    Apart millet ambli(made by fermentation, quite easy to make) is a must try.

    This was really interesting and helpful. I don´t live in India, but I go there for longer stays and being plantbased I worry about my protein intake when I eat out. When at home in Italy I cook almost all my meals and aim for a minimum of 60 g per day, but often have more (as I do strength training and also am not sure about absorption). Food I add to my breakfast to ensure it is not below 30 g, are homemade plain soy yogurt, freshly grounded flaxseeds (for omega 3 but also give protein), wheat germ (or buckwheat germ), pumkin seeds, sunflower seeds, plain legume based protein powder. For lunch and dinner I always have homemade dal/hummus or other version of legumes, whole grains (buckwheat, millet, oat or other), nutritional yeast (very rich in protein and tastes a little like cheese), and/or tofu (either marinated and cooked, or if I need to add proteins I make pakora with tofu), and I also use soy milk in my coffee or matcha. Didn´t count the vegetables and fruits, even though we eat huge amounts of them on daily. I love Indian food though, without Indian cuisine and spices vegan and vegetarian food would be quite boring!

If we follow this chart, we will remember within a week and without chart automatically our mind will calculate and we can eat consciously. Once we are ok with it then we can start calculating our carbohydrate which is generally more than what is required. Si we can cut down the portion. Tq sir

    This is the most practical and simplified video I've seen on protein. I've started cooking my own food adding protein in each meal but I'm unable to cook multiple dishes per meal or 3 meals a day, but I ensure to take 3 eggs, 1 cup curd and 100gm paneer everyday for protein. This video made me realise that I'm still deficient in meeting protein requirement of 60gm (as per my weight of 60kgs). The best option is to opt of whey protein to not only meet protein requirement but to also go on a higher side without much hassle of cooking.
    Any suggestions for good and pocket friendly Whey Protein pls?

    Thank you for the video! Would you possible be able to make a video explaining how and why does the protein value change in lentils while cooking. You briefly touched upon that in the video but a focused explanation would really help in understanding it better. So my questions are
    1. Do we lose protein content when we cook food?
    2. What would be the protein content of soaked dal (like in kosambari), sprouted pulses, sprouted and steamed and cooked? Information online is very varied!
    3. What would be the protein content of soaked, roasted and ground flour of lentils?
    4. How are commercial protein powders made? Can they be made at home or does the food industry use processes that extract just the protein content from sources
    such as peas/milk that are difficult to replicate at home?
    5. Does eating sprouted whole legumes like mung, chickpeas, horse gram have more protein? Again, does steaming sprouted legumes reduce protein?
