Food. Politics. Prejudice.
It's time to put nutrition first.
Do eggs really raise cholesterol? Is red meat bad for your health? Is soya truly a healthier substitute for meat? Are dairy products 'pure veg'? Can a vegetarian diet meet all your nutritional needs? Are our food choices truly personal or carefully controlled?
In The Meat of the Matter, Dr Sylvia Karpagam, a public health doctor and researcher known for her work on nutrition and food security, dismantles these and other myths about 'healthy,' 'ethical' and 'pure' food in India.
Drawing on scientific research, public health data and lived realities, Dr Sylvia reveals how access to nutrient-dense food for most people is restricted not by scarcity, but by human interference-and is largely shaped by politics, ideology and caste- and religion-based prejudice.
In the process, she also poses urgent questions: Is India really a vegetarian country? Are vegetarian foods inherently more nutritious? Why are meat, eggs and animal-based foods demonized despite their nutritional value? How have caste and religion come to dictate what is considered acceptable food in India?
Bold, provocative and deeply necessary, this groundbreaking book will change the way you think about-and eat-food.
