A recent health report from IndiaTV highlights that one simple dietary change shifting toward more plant-based foods can notably lower your chances of serious illnesses, including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. The core of the advice: include more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts and reduce reliance on processed meats and saturated fats.

Plant-based diets boost intake of fibre, antioxidants, and phytonutrients, which help control blood sugar, lower blood pressure, and improve cholesterol profiles. They also reduce inflammation, curb oxidative stress, and aid with weight control all key factors in preventing multiple chronic diseases.

The article emphasizes that even small changes matter: replacing one meat item per day with beans or lentils, increasing veggie portions, switching whole grains for refined ones. It’s not about strict veganism it’s about quality, balance and consistency. Over time, these swaps accumulate, helping the body resist the cumulative risks that come from diet-related lifestyle factors.
