Suryakumar Yadav Balances Favourite Foods With Fitness Through Portion Control

Suryakumar Yadav says he still eats butter chicken and biryani while staying fit.

He does not eat unlimited amounts of them.

Instead, he pays attention to how much he eats and how often.

A dietitian says people do not need to completely ban their favourite foods.

Smaller portions can help keep meals balanced.

Vegetables, salad, curd, protein and fruit can add important nutrients.

Athletes may need more food because they train and compete so much.

Regular people should use the idea of balance rather than copy an athlete’s exact diet.

Eating favourite foods occasionally can also make healthy eating easier to maintain.
