"Study Reveals Nutritional Deficiencies in North Indian Diet"

A study led by researchers at the George Institute for Global Health India has revealed that the North Indian diet is high in salt and phosphorus but lacks adequate protein and potassium. This imbalance in nutrient intake poses a risk for non-communicable diseases. Another study in 2020 had also highlighted the insufficiency of essential nutrients in the Indian diet. A balanced diet rich in essential nutrients is crucial for overall health and well-being, supporting optimal growth, immune function, and disease prevention.
