Native foods, nutritional requirement and their role in food security
Dr. Vanu Gulati, Dr. Mansi Dass Singh
It is important to embrace the traditions, traditional foods are not
just the reflection of culture but also source of vital nutrients that are rich in vitamins, minerals, fibers and antioxidants. They have been rooted in centuries old culinary traditions and are deeply embedded in various cultures, rituals, communities and are passed down from one generation to another. Traditional diets across the cultures and regions have been linked with reduced risks of health issues and therefore, can be utilised as preventive health foods. Native foods also promote biodiversity, promote nutritional security, can build cultural connections and can reduce the global challenges of food insecurity
