We have all grown up with the golden words, ‘Health is Wealth.’ However, is India truly practicing this? Prevalence of obesity in India is 40.3%, which amounts to almost half of our population. Obesity was higher among women than men (41.88% vs. 38.67%) and over 40 than under 40 (45.81% vs. 34.58%). These figures lead us to believe that the future for us is questionable.
While a lot of us have attempted to undergo weight loss regimes, how many of us have truly succeeded? Health is synonymous with ‘Nutrition.’ One of the major reasons why we haven’t succeeded at shedding those extra kilos is because we have tried to do what everyone else does. However, nutrition is not the ‘one size fits all’ routine. Personalized nutrition is the need of the hour to improve the health and fitness for us.
In today’s narrative, one needs to focus on quality of food instead of quantity. We need to understand how to make the right choices in terms of our food intake. Every body type is different from the other. Therefore, what the body demands in terms of nutrition is also different making personalization the key turn around factor. The theory behind the personalization of nutrition is supported by multiple factors, including advances in food analytics, nutrition-based diseases, and public health programs, increasing use of information technology in nutrition science, the concept of gene-diet interaction, and growing consumer capacity or concern for better and healthy foods.
Obesity today is the underlying cause for many common diseases related to the heart, type II diabetes, cancer and many more. This fact suggests the personalization of dietary habits will ensure behavioral changes that will lead to better health outcomes for India. Nutrillion, founded by Dr Rishab Verma is a name that you can trust for your personalized nutrition regime to lead a healthy life.
