Do you want to reduce weight? Do you have any particular diet system that you have been following? The two common diet system that I have been most interested are both keto and paleo diet. 

Keto diet - it means a vegan food and diet system, but Paleo diet is semi vegan. Ketogenic diet is good for a lot of treatments  against epilepsy, Parkinson, depression, migraines, Alzheimer's or any kind of cognitive disorders. Foods that contains medium tri glycerides especially coconut oil, palm oil and goats milk are found under the category of ketogenic diet and it is good for brain's overall health and development.

Sabudhana Kichdi: How to slow down your hunger during Intermittent Fasting?

If I want to write from my inside out, is this the only way?

Sago or Sabudana is a starch extracted from the spongy centre, or pith, of various tropical palm stems, especially those of Metroxylon sagu. It is a major staple food for the low land peoples of New Guinea and the Moluccas, where it is called saksak, rabia and sagu.

But, tapioca pearls are done by crushing the raw tapioca into its crushed form of powder, using some traditionally available machines.

Tapioca extracting process is most commonly done in the Salem region in Tamilnadu, wherein this is the area having the highest yield of tapioca in the world.

That means, sago and tapioca pearls are entirely different.

Protein, Fat and Fiber - less than one gram
Carbs - 83 gram

Zinc - 11% of the reference daily intake

Even test-tube studies are showing that it is high in Polyphenols like flavonoids, which are plant-based compounds that function as antioxidants in your body. 

For those who have zinc deficiency, intaking some cooked sago pearls are one of the best solution. The study on Pennsylvania State University, conducted on mice, James Hester - lead author and a graduate assistant in physiology at Penn State, said that recent research studies proved that zinc is a "key regulator" of oocyte or egg development. 

Zinc plays a key role in oocyte division, fertilization, DNA regulation and embryo development.

If I want to write from my inside out, is this the only way?

Recently I have learned to prepare the well known Aimee Song Raw bars recipe. 

Most people prefer to prepare their granola recipe at home, here is what l learned from the Aimee Song Raw bars recipe. 

Ingredients are given below ⧭


Oats - two cups
Chia seeds - one fourth cup
Sunflower seeds  - half-cup (say, for two cups of oats)
Walnuts - one fourth cup
Dates 10 numbers
Pepper - 1 pinch
Salt - 1 pinch

Other Requirements: ⧭

Parchment paper - 1 number
Glass dish - 1 number
baking dish (Normally, you can find that dish in your oven) or pressure cooker lid 
Chopping board - 1 number

Granola bars
Ingredients as mentioned above

Normally, people add both chia and sunflower seeds without crushing them into crumps, during their baking session. 

First off, I have done a mild roasting (both chia and sunflower seeds) - add both seeds to the granola mixture. Some of them are crushing it using a grinder. Or you can add those seeds without harming or not even roasting it. 

Adding a pinch of Salt will enhance the taste and flavor of the bar, it will become more crispier than ever! It is optional even!

Fresh Paneer Fresh Paneer Cubes

Did anyone try to prepare some paneer at home? Can you please tell me the different recipes you can make from paneer? 

Paneer is often considered as a "vishudha" food (in local language) because it is a pure food without any chemical agents, also it is possible to make it from the cow milk. Or you might consider it as a spicy food once you can add more chilly, masalas and salt along with it.

It is a semi-vegan source of food because it is neither from a plant source nor taking any animal meat. But, we required some cow milk for the Curdling process. 

This food could have been put in the "semi vegan category" because it is not purely vegan - so pure, soft and easy to digest from -   it is coming directly from the animal, cow milk- a good-to-go protein source, especially for vegan lovers. We can either make simple recipes like salad or highly delicious, mouth-watering curries by mixing it with a little red wine. 

 Let me try my individual experience in preparing both fry and salad using some homemade Paneer. It is easily available in the market at a reasonable price, or why not trying to make it at on your own? 

Paneer is known as vegan food, people are using it in place of non-vegan items, say it is chicken or fish. It contains 18.3 grams of milk protein. 

Paneer is well known as "cottage cheese", and its alternative name is Foner. Based on the historical perspective, Chhena were first prepared in Bengal, under Portuguese influence. Before pressing the curd content in a molded form, calling it Chhena.


# How to prepare paneer at home? # 

You can make fresh paneer at home, by adding some acids like vinegar or acidic juices, say lemon. This process is called Curdling. Once it is done, the separated curds can be drained out using a Muslin, and press out the excess water from it. I would rather suggest you to buy it from the market place.
