CHAPTER

Reclaiming Traditional Diets and Challenging Dietary Propaganda in India

This chapter explores the indigenous dietary practices of marginalized communities in India, focusing on the food choices of tribal groups like Dalits, who have often been disregarded in mainstream nutrition discussions. It highlights the importance of traditional eating habits, including meat consumption, and raises concerns about dietary propaganda promoting vegetarianism without considering the nutritional needs of all social classes. The conversation concludes with a call to choose locally sourced foods, respect diverse cultures, and challenge societal norms that perpetuate undernourishment and marginalization.
