A Step Towards Holistic Health ft. Saffola Fittify

Health is the complete integration of body and mind. It's not just a 'medical fix' but a way of living. Just this week, many of you must have resolved to achieve good health and well-being as your new year resolution. While some concensious ones might be on-track already, others would still be looking for hints from where to begin and what lifestyles changes to incorporate in their everyday routine.

You may have had certain eating habits for so long that you do not realize they are unhealthy. At times, your poor eating habits become an integral part of your daily life, and you don't realize the need to change it. I'm no exception to this case, but better late than never. This year, I'm also determined to reinforce new eating patterns in my daily diet . To add to my existing nutrition plan, I've picked some products from Fittify.in that helped me make a healthy switch.

Healthy eating, directly or indirectly, is associated with right kind of edible oil. When deciding which oil to consume, there are a few factors to consider like flavour, nutrition, usability etc. As most people would agree that olive oil (especially extra virgin oil) is good for us, I picked up premium quality Saffola Aura Extra Virgin Olive Oil from fittify that is imported from Spain. It is rich in mono saturated fatty acids and has natural anti oxidant. Extra virgin olive oil is said to retain some of the antioxidants and bioactive compounds from olives, thus considered healthier than its more refined version.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil does not have a very high heat point, so not recommended for frying and heavy cooking. Instead it's ideally used only for raw or cold cooking, as salad dressings, for making breads and dips or for light sauteing to avail its umpteen health benefits.

Next interesting product that I got is an assorted pack of Hi-Protein Meal Replacement Shakes that contains 7 sachets of milkshakes in Swiss Chocolate, Alphonso Mango, Cookies & Cream & Pistachio Almond flavours. These shakes contain 5 superfoods like quinoa, moringa, amaranth, chia seeds & turmeric plus 26 essential vitamins and minerals that help you manage weight effectively while supporting lean muscle building in an effortless manner.
I purposely bought this meal replacement combo pack to carry it with me to work as well as during travels when I have to skip meals due to lack of time or non-availability of desired food items. It's so convenient to just mix the content of a sachet in milk and gulp it down in a jiffy to feel full.

Lastly I got The Perfekt Gummies For Bone Health Calcium and Vitamin D to get rid of my traditional calcium pills. These gummies are a tasty alternate to tablets and feel like chewing a candy. As a dietary supplement, I take two gummy vitamins per day with food as the stomach acid produced while eating helps our body absorb calcium carbonate easily. These gummies help to support healthy bone density, strong teeth, enhance muscle support & better immune system overall. 

In the end, I would say health is the goal and wellness is the active process of growth and change for achieving it. So we all should constantly make efforts to adopt lifestyles that would improve our health, prevent diseases, and enhance our sense of well-being to lead a joyful life.

Devouring Classic Indian Delights ft SweetkaramCoffee

Snacking industry has been revolutionized extensively in the past decade. As a 70s kid, I remember myself looking forward to the day when my parents would go shopping on first Sunday of every month and bring home a bagful of snacks as a part of monthly grocery shopping and we, the kids in the family, would wholeheartedly enjoy tasty mom-made delicacies in that formidable hour between lunch and dinner especially over weekends. Despite munching tit-bits all the time, there was no stress of eating unhealthy junk as everything was unadulterated those days.

But when I see my kids ordering online snacks in a jiffy during study break or on-the-go, I literally feel worried about the amount of noxious food eaten by them. 

In a quest to find some authentic homemade food items, I chanced upon SweetkaramCoffee.in and it felt like my childhood memories were brought to life. 

Sweet Karam Coffee is a platform that is basically your smart solution to grab classic Indian delights that are not just authentic, tasty, and healthy, but also sans any chemicals or preservatives.

Since most of us don't have time to stress over how should we get our hands on healthy eatables, having access to Sweet Karam Coffee seemed to be life-changing. 

I explored their exclusive range of homemade delights that makes it place on the shelves of their online store and found some options like Banana Chips, Murukku, Filter coffee powder, Ghee, Rice, Avakkai, Idly podi, Puliyogare paste and so much more. 

You'll find products thoughtfully classified into categories and it's quite a smooth navigation from one stop to another. I decided to place a mixed-bag order to give it a shot and included a couple of products from almost all categories. So here is how my order looked like-

As an enthusiastic home-cook, I first picked some everyday cooking spices from Masalas & Instant Mixes category that could bring a flavourful and aromatic novelty to my routine food items. The adjoining category of Pickles caught my eyeballs and I chose to add our favourite Garlic Pickle and Green Chilli Pickle to my cart. 

When it comes to everyday cooking, one shouldn't miss some organic lentils that are a good source of folate. The Daily Essentials store of Sweet Karam Coffee left me amazed with variety of options including organic rice, millets, grains, sugar, oils, butter and everything else you may need on your kitchen shelves. 

Not just I bought lentils for my hearty meals, but picked some healthy organic gluten-free flours also that our chapati/ breads can be more nutritious using a combination of whole wheat flour, barley flour and gram flour. 

My kiddo insisted on getting Sandwich Bhakarwadi, Mixed Millet Poha and vegan Masala Mixed Dhal for tea-time snacks from their Sweets & Snacks category. 

My order was shipped in next 24 hours and I was intimated about transit updates via email and SMS. The order was packed carefully and every item I received was freshly packed. 

A few items from my order have already been consumed by me and I'm satisfied with the quality and taste. 

After a delightful shopping experience with Sweet Karam Coffee, I've already made my mind to order some delectable homemade brownies, cakes, cookies, chocolates and bakery products for my friends and relatives during upcoming festive occasions that they may enjoy without guilt. The Onam Spl Snacks is also one of the highly recommended sections.  

India's favourite destination good food store for your entire family with zero preservatives and zero toxic chemicals.

So, it's time to devour classic Indian delights with a healthy and homemade twist and unleash happiness because 'Happiness is Homemade' ❤️
