They also emphasized how, in the fast-paced world of today, including almonds in one’s diet can promote general health and wellness. RJ Shelee moderated the session.

A balanced, healthy lifestyle has grown more challenging to achieve in today’s fast-paced world, which has resulted in an increase in lifestyle diseases including diabetes, heart disease, and obesity.

The seasoned nutritionist stressed during the conversation how crucial it is to keep a balanced diet and include natural foods like almonds for optimum health. She emphasized that California almonds are high in 15 vital nutrients and provide a host of health advantages, including lowered levels of LDL and total cholesterol, blood sugar regulation, and weight management. Also included in the conversation were the ICMR-National Institute of Nutrition’s (ICMR-NIN) Dietary Guidelines for Indians, which advise consuming nuts like almonds as a significant source of plant protein in a balanced diet in addition to being a nutritious snack.

Popular Actress, Susmita Chatterjee said, “Maintaining a fast-paced schedule while always looking my best on camera is a requirement of working in the entertainment industry. To remain at the top of my game, I genuinely think that food and exercise go hand in hand. Natural foods, particularly California almonds, have changed my life; I’ve had this habit since I was a young child. I enjoy having a handful of overnight-soaked almonds as soon as I wake up every morning. This little routine gives me energy for the day and establishes the foundation for a healthy way of living. I always include almonds in my breakfast and snacks to help me stay away from bad options and maintain the glow of my skin. Eating almonds while on set or at an event keeps me energized”.

The session represented incorporating nutrient-rich foods, like almonds, into our everyday routines to improve our general health. In the modern environment, we may improve our resilience and attain a better work-life balance by prioritizing our diet.
