You're a life saviour. I tried quantified eating few years ago but gave up after a day, because weighing every thing I ate made me hate food. This heuristics is a game changer, I never considered protein content in rice, veggies etc. Loving all your videos - both content and production value, I am binge watching them everyday. In fact, I am organizing and summarizing all your videos in Notion for my reference. Hope to see a similar video for fats if possible. Thanks and keep them coming.
The facts here are presented in a crisp and detailed manner whereas Dr Pal does the same in a comical manner. Two such people are much needed to reach the masses of Indians across the globe for a healthy living.
Omg.... you made soooo simple to understand protein intake in regular indian traditional food.... rather than in any fancy foods.... Which is very much needed to get out of all the confusion towards protein... Thanks a lot... Love your videos with much more more informative
This was really interesting and helpful. I don´t live in India, but I go there for longer stays and being plantbased I worry about my protein intake when I eat out. When at home in Italy I cook almost all my meals and aim for a minimum of 60 g per day, but often have more (as I do strength training and also am not sure about absorption). Food I add to my breakfast to ensure it is not below 30 g, are homemade plain soy yogurt, freshly grounded flaxseeds (for omega 3 but also give protein), wheat germ (or buckwheat germ), pumkin seeds, sunflower seeds, plain legume based protein powder. For lunch and dinner I always have homemade dal/hummus or other version of legumes, whole grains (buckwheat, millet, oat or other), nutritional yeast (very rich in protein and tastes a little like cheese), and/or tofu (either marinated and cooked, or if I need to add proteins I make pakora with tofu), and I also use soy milk in my coffee or matcha. Didn´t count the vegetables and fruits, even though we eat huge amounts of them on daily. I love Indian food though, without Indian cuisine and spices vegan and vegetarian food would be quite boring!
Don't worry about Protein. Breast milk is best for a baby to grow, it only has 1% protein. Just as animals we eat make protein from plants. Our bodies can also effectively do this. Only Plants make protein. It is a secondary source from animals.
I was waiting for a video like this! All the other fitness channels usually have an American diet, but Indian foods always confused me. And now I know Im still quite below my daily protein target. Thanks for keeping it simple and explaining with clarity.

How to measure when there is no protein on plate.. Indian diet is kind of frustrating sometimes.. counting protein from dal and lentils is useless.. its a way of fooling ourselves
@@harsharip peanuts contains more fat than protein. They are also very high in calories so you have to limit your consumption if you are on a weightloss
Millets is a great option to be considered. In my place jowar (bajra in winters)rotis with dal or a vegetable/sprouts curry is a staple food. Ragi mudde is staple in many parts of KA. These days millet idlis and dosas are also in trend. Even millet rava(can be made at home/ flour mill) and vermicelli are good options. Apart millet ambli(made by fermentation, quite easy to make) is a must try.
Recently stared working out again and have never been protein conscious ever before. This time I had started proton intake on very rough estimates and then I found this video. I can't thank my gruh nakshatras enough for bringing me here. I have wasted so many days months of working out and never getting the desired results... Thankfully not any more. Thank you so much!
Finally a video that is practical, sensible and one is not tearing one's hair just to calculate the protein on your plate. Thankyou so much for putting the info in such a simplified manner.
Thank you for this video. My dilemma with all diet related videos was, while everyone talks about which food is good for what, i would never get answers to how much protein or carb is there in cooked idli or whatever. This video gave me some clarity. Thanks once again.
Thrilled to have chanced upon your channel. Have a feeling am going to binge watching like an OTT show. Brilliant insights, delectable presentation. Kudos 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I just love the no-bullshit concise to-the -point approach you have. Well researched, needless to say!! Awesome video!! TH-camrs talk in a language difficult to translate into actionable practical actions..
this is the most needed video ,thank you for the video i have recently started counting protein and realised i did not meet even 60% of what i needed consciously including more protein for the first few weeks will definitely make it easier later and the chart and count you gave is much helpful for those who are beginners
Thank you for the video! Would you possible be able to make a video explaining how and why does the protein value change in lentils while cooking. You briefly touched upon that in the video but a focused explanation would really help in understanding it better. So my questions are 1. Do we lose protein content when we cook food? 2. What would be the protein content of soaked dal (like in kosambari), sprouted pulses, sprouted and steamed and cooked? Information online is very varied! 3. What would be the protein content of soaked, roasted and ground flour of lentils? 4. How are commercial protein powders made? Can they be made at home or does the food industry use processes that extract just the protein content from sources such as peas/milk that are difficult to replicate at home? 5. Does eating sprouted whole legumes like mung, chickpeas, horse gram have more protein? Again, does steaming sprouted legumes reduce protein?
Thankyou sooooo much sir. Nowhere i could find this much detailed protein measurements for Indian foods. And loved your last tips to add the required protein in our diets. Kudos to your great efforts.
This is the most practical and simplified video I've seen on protein. I've started cooking my own food adding protein in each meal but I'm unable to cook multiple dishes per meal or 3 meals a day, but I ensure to take 3 eggs, 1 cup curd and 100gm paneer everyday for protein. This video made me realise that I'm still deficient in meeting protein requirement of 60gm (as per my weight of 60kgs). The best option is to opt of whey protein to not only meet protein requirement but to also go on a higher side without much hassle of cooking. Any suggestions for good and pocket friendly Whey Protein pls?
Glad to come across such amazing and informative content. I have tried to gain information from numerous sources from the internet but most of them were intricate for an average person to understand. I usually don't comment on TH-cam videos, but such content needs to be appreciated and shared. Keep doing the great work!
First time I am watching your video sir. Calculating protine is explained so well in simple words. If we follow this chart, we will remember within a week and without chart automatically our mind will calculate and we can eat consciously. Once we are ok with it then we can start calculating our carbohydrate which is generally more than what is required. Si we can cut down the portion. Tq sir
Very practical advice thank you. As a vegetarian I was always told to be watchful of my protein and B12 levels but when I went to to live in the West, to my surprise I was told that low protein and low B12 levels are very common in Caucasian people too. In fact my doctor in Denmark showed me his fridge where all the B12 injections prescribed to patients are stored. So if Danish people eat meat, fish and eggs in every meal every day, how come their protein and B12 levels are low? So the lesson for me is to eat what I have to but not to trust all these jazz on standards all the time. You will be just fine eating what you are eating, just be a little conscious of what you eat and when you eat
Great video! I am a vegetarian Indian, so have to work extra hard for my protein. I baseline with 2 scoops of Whey, 150g Tofu and 2 tablespoons peanut butter, which adds up to 25x2+22.5+8 = 80.5 gms of protein. Rest I get from Rice/Dal/Subzee/Curd/Nuts. This much protein perfectly compliments my athletic lifestyle. Thanks again for this video!
Thank you. Almost solved the maximum doubts people have regarding protein. We are eagerly waiting for many such practical videos explaining other aspects of our daily foods, our common mistakes and the best alternatives so that we do not have to break our head...
Thank you so much for sorting this out.. I had started thinking about protein in meals after the earlier video of protein. But this video makes life much easier. Thank you so much
Loved the video. (Especially the "including this one" 😄) One thing I wanted to point out is - there is some modern research on longevity relating lower (not very low) protein intake to longer lifespans. Not trying to negate your point, since Indians probably don't consume protein at that level. But just trying to say protein above a certain level may not be that good and I thought you might be interested in checking out some new fascinating ideas.
Lots of fascinating (but largely unproven at clinical scale) research in the longevity space. At this point, I’d be more worried about not getting the bare minimum than whether I’m overdoing it
@@krishashok Oh absolutely. I agree, especially wrt Indian diets. I grew up with a South Indian diet similar to what you described, and it was extremely carb-focused (and with ghee, of course). Learning to consume protein and finding appropriate sources is challenging, not least because proteins are often calorie-dense. Anyway, about the unprovenness. I agree there isn’t as much of a systemic body of research leading to unified conclusions, so we should not take advice from that just yet. I think much of it will end up being the classics (whole grains, veggies, lots of exercise etc.) But there are a few interesting “good science” results here and there and I just find it fascinating that things that may be necessary for us to live healthy on the short term may contradict things you need to live longer.
I bought a kitchen scale and it has changed my life not only for cooking but also tracking. I exercise regularly so i have to get the max protein. As a bengali, it's easy for me to get it from dal, fish and chicken. I supplement with soy protein
Protein was becoming a headache and this video is just in time for me. The practical 3 tips are easily doable - thanks for the same. Your no-nonsense way of putting the facts out there gives us confidence in trying these ideas. 20g per meal seems achievable.
After seeing this video I re- lived my nutrition and biochemistry classes.Now a senior citizen, a postgraduate in Food Science and Nutrition.Thank you Sir
Very useful video for a vegetarian like me. Thanks a ton for sharing. Have been wondering whether I am getting enough protein from my food and have now found out I am not!!! 😮
Sir, we would love to see a video from you discussing fats! There's still so much confusion about fat consumption - what are the upper and lower limits, and which sources are best for our health? It would be incredibly helpful to learn more about incorporating fats into a balanced diet. Looking forward to your insights on this important topic!
As always very informative and would have taken lots of time to research. It is really difficult to get all these information if you live outside India as the dieticians don't have a clue about our food habits and their knowledge is only limited to butter chicken masala and naan.
@krishashok highly informative! You kept the information clear and concise, keeping in mind our standard Indian dietary needs. I’ve been following your suggestions to make sure I meet my daily protein requirements
Adelle Davis was an American writer and nutritionist, considered "the most famous nutritionist in the early to mid-20th century." She was an advocate for improved health through better nutrition. She is famously remembered by her avid followers who were recommended to have 100g of protein each day. She herself only lived upto 70 years, dying of bone cancer. Your videos are great and informative. I wonder if you will ever go into a full video on ideal plate setups for different parts of India based on nutrition information?
I liked the way you said vegetarian protein eating people should be mindful and include simple foods to their diet. As you usual you nailed the narration😀💯. Thank you for this video.
Sir ca you please give the value in grams. Because my cup or small cup is different from another persons. We have simple kitchen weghing machines that can tell us exactly what quantity we are using
Hi.... It's simple and awesome. Please let us know about managing carbs, fats and micros. That would be perfect. Thanks. Big fan of Masaala Lab. Started reading, it's an interesting read 🤩
Have become a fan of your videos, love the way you explain , the content, its short and crisp and to the point. Much needed awareness to all Indians. Found your tamil channel and that helped pass this info to my in laws and parents.
This is what I do to get required protein. I eat 2 meals a day. 200g of fish (50g), 200g of meat (60), one egg a day (42g), 75g chickpeas (15g), 250g of rice/millets (21g), 7 servings of vegetables (14g), 7 servings of lentils (14g), 4 bread/chapathi/idli/dosai daily (56g), 250g of roasted peanuts (62.5g), 100g of tofu (18g). Thats approx 350g of protein per week, 50 g per day for my weight of 65 kg at RDA of 0.8 g/kg/day. Hope its helpful to someone out there
As always great explanation with very practical suggestions. I am a eggetarian and I feel I don't get enough protein on many days. I was taking 'Whey protein'(from Optimum Nutrition on Amazon) on days I exercise/run and also when my diet don't have enough protein. However I went to a Nutritionist for general feedback and told my diet, The nutritionist was critical of whey protein. She mentioned take whey protein only when I run/exercise and never as a food substitute as its not natural. She was generally apprehensive on manufacturing of whey protein and instead suggested Ensure(from Abott Laboratories), but this has very less protein content. She also suggested eating more legumes and north indian curries like chana. Because of our cooking patterns at my home, not all dishes have enough protein. Whats your take on having whey protein as food supplement on days when my protein intake is low?. Thanks Krish.
It's as natural as paneer is, lol. Your nutritionist might as well be illiterate or something. Like the name suggests, it's a supplement and not a substitute. Personally I woudnt have opted for it if I was a non-vegetarian, tho I doubt they eat daily nonveg so they might still need it too.
Hey Krish. Love your videos and the richness in the info u present in a really concise manner. BTW you missed mentioning the protein content in milk over here which is staple in most Indian snack. Can you please add that too? Thanks in advance
I kept paneer and curd and avoided milk because this video was targeted at elderly folks and most people outside of the northern states are lactose intolerant to varying degrees, and usually consume dairy in paneer or curd form
Precise and concise. Thanks so much for this video. It was much needed. For those with an active lifestyle, just keep watching your macros and try to get up to 100 gm of protein for individuals weighing 60-70 kg. I guess that would be good to go
Thank you so much. I have some questions regarding the preparation of some dishes. Paneer - Does frying reduces the amount of protein? If that's the case, then is it better to add paneer pieces in a sabji on top - like raw? And similarly, the chhole or rajma. Sometimes you feel heavy after eating them.
Very practical and important information, h helped me a lot. thanks a lot for sharing and clearing a lots of of myths and preconceived notions about diet in general and Indian food habits in particular.thru ur videos . Looking forward such amazing videos 👏👏👏🙌🙌🤗🙏

Very nice.. Easy simple and practical to calculate protein.. Cd u pks gv us such a video on counting carbs.. Or glycemic liad etc???
This is very helpful. I could easily calculate how much i lack protein in my diet. Making the adjustments from today.
Great!
Thank you sir for detailed nutrition value on each meal... many protein powders seems to contain heavy metals. Can you do a video pls on this.
Hi.... It's simple and awesome. Please let us know about managing carbs, fats and micros. That would be perfect. Thanks. Big fan of Masaala Lab. Started reading, it's an interesting read 🤩
Will do!
Thank you 😁
Have become a fan of your videos, love the way you explain , the content, its short and crisp and to the point. Much needed awareness to all Indians. Found your tamil channel and that helped pass this info to my in laws and parents.
How about protein in nuts and seeds?
This is what I do to get required protein. I eat 2 meals a day. 200g of fish (50g), 200g of meat (60), one egg a day (42g), 75g chickpeas (15g), 250g of rice/millets (21g), 7 servings of vegetables (14g), 7 servings of lentils (14g), 4 bread/chapathi/idli/dosai daily (56g), 250g of roasted peanuts (62.5g), 100g of tofu (18g). Thats approx 350g of protein per week, 50 g per day for my weight of 65 kg at RDA of 0.8 g/kg/day. Hope its helpful to someone out there
Great! Very useful!
That’s great!
Thanks a ton for making such useful videos 🙏
My pleasure 😊
Excellent video. I have been watching your videos. Very informative.
Glad you like them!
Such a great video and how nicely you explained! Thank you so much ☺️
You're so welcome!
Finally, the protein quotient has been explained in simple terms. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
As always great explanation with very practical suggestions.
I am a eggetarian and I feel I don't get enough protein on many days. I was taking 'Whey protein'(from Optimum Nutrition on Amazon) on days I exercise/run and also when my diet don't have enough protein.
However I went to a Nutritionist for general feedback and told my diet, The nutritionist was critical of whey protein. She mentioned take whey protein only when I run/exercise and never as a food substitute as its not natural. She was generally apprehensive on manufacturing of whey protein and instead suggested Ensure(from Abott Laboratories), but this has very less protein content. She also suggested eating more legumes and north indian curries like chana. Because of our cooking patterns at my home, not all dishes have enough protein.
Whats your take on having whey protein as food supplement on days when my protein intake is low?.
Thanks Krish.
There is no evidence that whey protein is bad. Saying it’s not natural is not a scientific reason
It's as natural as paneer is, lol.
Your nutritionist might as well be illiterate or something.
Like the name suggests, it's a supplement and not a substitute.
Personally I woudnt have opted for it if I was a non-vegetarian, tho I doubt they eat daily nonveg so they might still need it too.
Excellent!! So practical, easy to understand and follow. Many thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Simple, crisp and clear as always.. thank you!
You're very welcome!
Hey Krish. Love your videos and the richness in the info u present in a really concise manner. BTW you missed mentioning the protein content in milk over here which is staple in most Indian snack. Can you please add that too? Thanks in advance
I kept paneer and curd and avoided milk because this video was targeted at elderly folks and most people outside of the northern states are lactose intolerant to varying degrees, and usually consume dairy in paneer or curd form
@@krishashok got it
I'm not lactose intolerant and use milk as a base for my whey shake. So can I expect ~10g from 250ml of cows milk?
yes - 9 to 10 g @@prashanthtr5548
Great great great video. Always had this problem of counting protein in daily meals.
Glad it was helpful!
best video ever! most practical! loved it!
Precise and concise. Thanks so much for this video. It was much needed.
For those with an active lifestyle, just keep watching your macros and try to get up to 100 gm of protein for individuals weighing 60-70 kg. I guess that would be good to go
Thank u for this video👌.can u please suggest some plant based protein supplements names 🙏
Practical and well explained video on protein even for vegetarians.... Great applause 👏 thankyou for your support 😊
😮😮👏👏 HOW COME I NEVER THOUGHT OF THIS??!!
a "full-bite/mouthful" could also be a great measurer!! superb. extremely valuable tip!!
Thank you
Very well explained - I wish indians would realize how less protein the traditional daily diet contains!
Indeed
much needed video in a easily understandable way. Is it recommended to take protein powder in your very day basis if we are veg?
It’s best to get as much protein from food and then if there are any remaining gaps, use whey protein
Thank you so much. I have some questions regarding the preparation of some dishes. Paneer - Does frying reduces the amount of protein? If that's the case, then is it better to add paneer pieces in a sabji on top - like raw? And similarly, the chhole or rajma. Sometimes you feel heavy after eating them.
Very practical and important information, h helped me a lot. thanks a lot for sharing and clearing a lots of of myths and preconceived notions about diet in general and Indian food habits in particular.thru ur videos . Looking forward such amazing videos 👏👏👏🙌🙌🤗🙏
