Beyond the Masala Dabba: Unpacking South Asian Food, Dietary Habits, and Family Traditions

  • Summary

  • Today, we're diving into South Asian culture, food, and diets! South Asians love food, often centering family gatherings around it. We'll explore how this cultural practice shapes our eating habits, body image, and the messages our kids receive about food: what to eat, when to eat, how to eat, and much more!

    We’ll also discuss the health implications of traditional South Asian diets, which are high in carbohydrates and can contribute to heart disease, diabetes, and obesity.

    Our special guest, Karuna, a culinary nutritionist and certified health coach, will share insights on how to balance cultural food traditions with healthy eating habits.

    Join us as we take a culinary journey through our past and present food habits, and learn practical tips to nourish healthy habits for our children and future generations.

    Tune in to Brownish Parenting! for an engaging conversation on the impact of South Asian American diets and how to make healthier choices while preserving our rich culinary heritage.
