Protein without the pressure

Everyday ingredients are a useful place to start.

Pulses, beans, eggs, dairy, fish and meat can provide protein. Choose foods that fit your preferences, budget and dietary needs.

Try a familiar combination: dal with rice, chana with roti, or curd alongside a meal. You do not need to turn every meal into a calculation.

One small step to try

Choose one protein food you already enjoy for tomorrow.

Small steps make a difference too.
