advisable to eat our traditional food items
Mainly the youngsters they eat a lot while walking on the roads in some areas.
People come to many big cities from each part of the country for their livelihood, and bring their ideas of making good business.
But they forget about the food items which were not there traditionally in our country.
If some one eats DOSA-IDALY-SAMBHAR ON AND OFTEN IN KASHMIR OR OTHER COLD REGIONS ONE IS BOUND TO FALL SICK IN TIMES WITH AGE.
SIMILARLY IN GUJARAT PEOPLE DON'T CONSUME TAMARIND IN DAL OR SAMBHAR BECAUSE IT IS SEEN THAT IN EARLIER YEARS PEOPLE WERE CONSUMING THIS TAMARIND, WHICH IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THE CLIMATE AND WATER OF GUJARAT REGION AND MANY OLD AGE PEOPLE WERE SUFFERING WITH RHEUMATISM.
Unless all such traditional food habits are also a part of the FSSAI's regular studies and research, and must also publish such data with the support of AYURVEDA and the TRADITION OF EACH REGION , THE DEFINITION OF JUNK FOOD WILL BE HALF RIGHT HALF WRONG.
The craze of eating and spreading wide advts by the restaurants, hotels, must also be brought under the scanner of the FSSAI regulation.
In one of the staff canteen in Europe , they serve daily nearly 40-50 items and they display the calorific value of some different combination of those items.
Similarly all restaurants can also do it, in the consumer interest.and FSSAI Can also take help of our AYURVEDA PRACTITIONERS. WHICH WILL HELP PEOPLE AND THE MASS POPULATION OF OUR COUNTRY. This is besides the FOOD ADULTERATION issues, which is also a biggest menace in our country.
This subject is very important and needs lot of deliberation by one and all including those who are at the helm of the affair -like FSSAI, HEALTH MINISTRY, CONSUMER AFFAIRS MINISTRY, PEOPLE FORUMS AND LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST THE SELLERS OF SUCH FOOD ITEMS LET HIM BE A ROAD SIDE GALLA, OR A RESTAURANT, HOTEL OR EVEN THE PARLIAMENT OR CANTEEN. WE NEED YOUNG, HEALTHY AND HAPPY INDIA NOT SICK.
