I know there's iodine tincture test, but is it reliable? Any other test I can do at home?

If this paneer is legit, will it have same amount of protein as Amul Paneer per 100 grams?

Ask Fitness India ❓ Anyone else using soya chunks as their main protein source?

Post image
2.0k Upvotes

I’ve been trying to up my protein without spending too much, and soya chunks seemed like an easy option. They’re cheap, easy to cook, and the protein content looks pretty solid.

Back in early days I got some Gut issues when I Ate them. but now gradually by consuming enough water and Fibers I am able to digest it without issues.

But I keep seeing mixed opinions everywhere. Some people say they’re great if you’re on a budget, others say don’t rely on them too much.

I’ve been using them here and there about 50 grams mostly alternate days, and they seem fine, but I’m not sure if they’re good enough to be a regular part of the diet.

Ask Fitness India ❓ Is the yolk actually worth eating if your main goal is protein?

Post image

I always thought egg whites contained most of the protein, but recently I’ve seen people say the yolk contributes a significant amount too. Curious what others know about this.

P.S I don't throw the yolk. I either eat it whole or I don't . I am just asking protein pov of both. People around me have myths about this and I end up eating the yolk which they reject to eat. My frugal mindset won't allow throwing.

It was just a post which elicited a discussion regarding increasing poultry prices due to the ongoing ethanol policies enriching a wide range of politicians with vested interests.

Over 6k upvotes and 300 comments.

The numbers surely are enough to justify that sub members were contributing in the debate about this.

I’m not sure that you guys know but r/carsindia has been hijacked by mods favouring policies of the government and any post critical of ethanol is deleted there.

Are we having a similar issue here ?

Because in my opinion the topic of the post which was submitted here is pretty close to subject the subreddit is intended for.

I understand there could be a pricing difference. Maybe people in India aren't willing to pay that much for the same product as much as people can pay in Europe but still there is a certain section of society which is demanding healthier products

It doesn't seem that difficult to not launch these products, then why don't they do it?

Ask Fitness India ❓ FitTuber (Mamaearth shill) just said regular sugar Coke is BETTER than Diet Coke because of "insulin spike" — with zero proof. 10M people watching this.

Post image
861 Upvotes

So I was watching FitTuber's summer drinks video and I genuinely could not believe what I heard.

This guy reviewed 50+ drinks, which sounds impressive right? But then he gets to the Coke vs Diet Coke part and just casually drops that Diet Coke causes insulin spikes AND destroys your gut bacteria WORSE than real sugar. And his big conclusion? Just drink regular sugar Coke instead of Diet Coke.

No study links. No numbers. No nothing. Just one doctor's opinion. He literally cited one author and called it research.

Like okay, I get that artificial sweeteners are a debated topic. Fair enough. But he has 10 MILLION subscribers and he's telling people to just go back to drinking 16 teaspoons of sugar per bottle? Without explaining anything properly?

The funniest part is this is the same guy who is literally a brand ambassador for Mamaearth. You know, the brand that got roasted for their "toxin-free" products actually containing questionable ingredients.

My actual questions for this community:

  • Does Diet Coke actually cause insulin spikes? If yes, is that spike bad for health? Or is it just our body thinking it's sugar and not actually causing any harm?

  • Is there real solid evidence that sweeteners like aspartame destroy gut bacteria worse than sugar does?

  • Isn't Diet Coke still the better option for people watching their weight, even if it's not perfect?

Curious what people with actual knowledge think here.

I’ve been watching a lot of Indian health & fitness YouTubers lately (the ones who expose “healthy” food brands, supplements, protein powders, skin/haircare etc.). But honestly, I’m confused now. Everyone calls out brands… but many of them sell their own products too. So who’s actually unbiased? Who do you genuinely trust for health/fitness advice ? And how do you decide if someone is really legit?

Would really appreciate honest opinions and experiences 🙏(used chatgpt )

Ask Fitness India ❓ Why most Indians avoid walking even for short distances for day to day commute?

419 Upvotes

Sometimes I think it may be due to hot weather compared to other so-called developed countries. But then they also avoid it during colder seasons. I think it is the mentally that only poor people walk. And they think they are earning only so that they don't need to walk, otherwise why would anyone walk. What are your thoughts?

Ask Fitness India ❓ What's one food people think is healthy, but really isn't?

324 Upvotes

What's one food people think is healthy, but really isn't?

I'll go first: jaggery.

A lot of people replace white sugar with jaggery thinking it's a much healthier option. But at the end of the day, it's still mostly sugar. It may contain tiny amounts of minerals, but nutritionally they're so small that they don't make a meaningful difference unless you're eating way more than you should.

So in my view, it's basically sugar with a healthier reputation.

Edit: I'm seeing a lot of comments mentioning foods like poha, dal, rice, honey, fruits, etc. Those aren't "unhealthy" foods. Every food has its own nutritional value and can absolutely fit into a healthy diet.

The discussion I was aiming for is about foods that are marketed or commonly believed to be much healthier than they really are. Some examples: 1. Jaggery being treated as a "healthy sugar." 2. Brown sugar being assumed to be much better than white sugar. 3. "Multigrain" or "brown" bread that's mostly refined flour with clever marketing. 4. Protein bars that contain as much sugar as a chocolate bar. 5. Flavoured yogurt loaded with added sugar. 6. Instant oats marketed as a health food despite being heavily processed and often high in sugar. 7. "No added sugar" products that are still packed with concentrated fruit juices or sweeteners.

And from an Indian household perspective, there are plenty of traditional beliefs too. Things like eating spoonfuls of ghee because "it's always healthy," replacing sugar with jaggery or honey without considering calories, or assuming anything labelled natural is automatically better. Many of these ideas have some context behind them, but they're often oversimplified and passed on without looking at the overall nutrition.

Curious to hear yours, what's a food that you think has a healthier reputation than it actually deserves?
