The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) issued a stern warning regarding the dangers of excessive protein supplements and unhealthy diets. According to the ICMR, unhealthy dietary practices contribute to a staggering 56.4% of India’s disease burden. The council emphasized the significance of adhering to dietary guidelines and engaging in regular physical activity to mitigate the risk of chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes. To promote informed and healthy food choices, the ICMR recommended reducing salt intake, minimizing sugar consumption, avoiding ultra-processed foods, and carefully reading food labels.
