Trust that you had your green smoothie today or will be having one soon!
Whole foods are full of fibre. They fill us up and slim us down. They cleanse the body of toxins. So let’s increase our fibre intake from today.
Kitchen Replacements
- Instead of white rice use unpolished rice (brown, red or black).
- Instead of white poha, use brown rice or red rice poha.
- Instead of semolina (rava), use dalia or unpolished millets like Foxtail Millet as semolina is made from polished wheat.
- Instead of white oats or quick cooking oats, use whole rolled oats or steel cut oats.
- Instead of white flour (maida) use whole wheat flour or millet flours.
- Instead of store bought cereals, it’s best to make your own muesli.
Make a list of how you will make the foods on your menu whole. For Example – instead of white rice idlis, you can make red rice idlis or instead of making upma with semolina/ rava, you can make it with foxtail millets/ foxtail millet rava instead.
