What else do you add to curd rice? I made mine with pomegranate, cucumber, raw mango, ginger, g.chilli, milk & curd, topped with a mustard–urad dal tadka. Served with curry-leaf chutney, lemon pickle & cucumber salad. Feels wholesome, cooling, #fibre-rich, #probiotic & hydrating.

BMI or body mass index alone does not tell the correct story, especially for Indians! Many Indians with normal BMI may still carry high amount of internal fat which is harmful for their health. Parameters like waist circumference,waist height ratio, waist-hip ratio, neck
