In this episode of Off the Rickshaw, we dive headfirst into the flavorful world of South Asian cuisine and how it intersects with modern health, fitness, and nutrition. From ancient Ayurvedic wisdom to today's protein-packed diet trends, we unpack how South Asians can find balance between cultural comfort foods and healthier living.
From turmeric cures to toxic body talk, we dive into how physical health and nutrition show up in brown households. We talk gym guilt, auntie comments, food shame, and how we’re unlearning the “look” of health in favor of something real, personal, and sustainable.
Whether you're trying to cut carbs, build muscle, manage your gut health, or just make sense of all the conflicting advice out there, this one's for you.
Grab your chai, take a walk (or don't), and join us for a real talk about food, fitness, and everything in between—desi-style.
