[quote=Anonymous]Non-Indian person here -- finding this thread so interesting because I have come to LOVE South Indian food as I have become more health and nutrition focused in my own eating...had no idea diabetes was common in Indian populations -- assumed (wrongly!) it was most prevalent due to our standard American diet. Perhaps it's different based on the genetic makeup as one PP has suggested, but for me, a lot of S Indian food fits perfectly into how I eat to avoid metabolic symdrome (goal being to regulate blood sugar, boost good cholesterol measures) Focus on whole grains OR fermented/sprouted; mostly plant-based; reasonable use of good fats (including dairy -- ghee, paneer). For example, I love dosa and idli because the fermented grains don't spike blood sugar and digest easily. [/quote]
