  • Poor Indian diet contributes to
    nutritional deficiencies
    Almost 7 out of 10
    Indians are Vitamin D
    deficient1
    • Most Indians are vegetarians
      and foods rich in vitamin D
      are mostly of animal origin1
    • Certain Indian cooking practices, like
      frying, thermally degrade vitamin D1
    Indian diet is low
    in Calcium1
    • High salt content is likely to
      increase urinary calcium excretion1
    • High phytate content chelates calcium
      and reduces its intestinal absorption1
    Almost 9 out of 10
    Indians consume a diet
    deficit in Protein2
    • Indian diets derive almost 60% of
      their protein from cereals with
      relatively low digestibility and
      quality3
