1. CALORIES
2. PROTEIN
3. CARBOHYDRATES
4. FAT
5. FIBER
No matter what you eat they will have some of the above items in them, In this post I will compare few of them:
Most common DESI FOOD: (All the daal's are 1/2 cup cooked)
The most common food and their nutritional value. This will help you to decide which food is better and what to avoid. I was surprised to see that a onion can have as much as 16gms of carbs and we eat things like that as if they don't hold any nutritional value. (of course its a vegetable carbs but still contains 67 cal.).
If you look at the cal. content 1 serving of daal is equal to an entire meal now think about the stuff we add to it (roti, rice, sabji) and that is the reason the cal. content goes through the roof.
So next time be careful in mixing things up (either roti or rice & use more green vegetables and less roots when you are having daal cause of the carbs)
Now go out there and workout some!
Thank you
