Our Indian thali is full of flavour and nutrition. Anyone's mouth can water just by looking at it. Be it taste, colour or nutrition, there is no match for Indian thali. We include a lot of things on our plate like dal, rice, roti, sabzi, pickle, salad, curd and many more. But it is very important to know what should be their correct ratio. For our body to get proper nutrition, there should be the right balance on our plate. Let us know from the experts what should be on our plate, and in what quantity.

This information has been taken from the Instagram account of Dietician RujutaDiwekar.

This should be the right proportion on the food plate

Your food plate should have 50 percent roti or rice i.e. grains/millets. 35 percent should be pulses and vegetables. If you eat non-veg, then you can include non-veg instead. Apart from this, 15 percent space in the plate should be given to pickle/salad/curd/chutney. This can also be understood as 3:2:1. If you prepare your plate in this way, your body will get complete nutrition, you will feel light and your weight will not increase. One advantage of designing the plate in such a way is that it keeps our stomach full for a long time and after some time we do not feel like eating tea, coffee or something unhealthy.

Will also help in getting out of the diet cycle

If you are following a diet cycle, then this balanced plate will help you to get out of it. It is very important to have the right balance on the plate. During the diet cycle, we often face many problems. Gas formation in the stomach, weakness, loss of skin glow, hair loss, and many such problems can occur during the diet. This is because during the diet, instead of eating the right kind of food, we try to eat less than our appetite. This is the reason that when we come out of the diet, and then on returning to our normal diet, our weight starts increasing again. Here again, it is very important to have a balance on the plate.
