India’s health crisis is out of control. We’re seeing two extremes: malnutrition and obesity skyrocketing at the same time. I’m breaking down exactly why this is happening and what YOU need to do about it. If you think this is just a problem for rural areas, you’re dead wrong. Processed foods, high-carb diets, and a broken food system are making India the fastest-growing country for diabetes, or as I call it, diabesity. Malnutrition isn’t just a poverty issue anymore—it’s everywhere. Urban areas are packed with people eating calories, but not the nutrients they need. And on top...
