Stay Fit with Traditional Diet
🌿 Returning to Roots for Better Health
Modern lifestyles have brought convenience, but also chronic illness, digestive issues, and lifestyle disorders. At Maaya Anubhuti Foundation, we believe the path to healthy ageing lies not in imported superfoods, but in the timeless wisdom of our traditional Indian diets.
Our initiative "Stay Fit with Traditional Diet" promotes eating patterns that are:
Locally grown
Seasonally aligned
Naturally balanced
Rich in heritage and healing
🍔 What We Promote
Neutral Millets like ragi, bajra, jowar and Positive Millets like Little Millets, Barnyard Millets, Browntop Millets, Kodo Millets and Foxtail Millets are rich in fiber, minerals, and naturally gluten-free. We promote their daily use over refined grains.
🌾 Desi Cooking Oils
Mustard oil, ghee, and coconut oil are time-tested for Indian cooking. Cold-pressed oils offer nourishment without chemical overload.
🌿 Local Vegetables & Seasonal Fruits
Eating what grows nearby supports your immune system, respects the environment, and builds long-term health.
🍼 Spices as Medicine
From turmeric to ajwain, our kitchens hold anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, and digestive herbs that modern science is rediscovering.
Our programs will:
Offer diet plans for elders with diabetes, hypertension, and gut issues

Include kitchen gardens and food preparation as wellness activities in our campus
