The Unhealthy Truth About Your Favorite Indian Snacks (And How We’re Changing That!)

The Unhealthy Truth About Your Favorite Indian Snacks (And How We’re Changing That!)
We all love indulging in our favorite snacks, especially those that bring back memories of home. Whether it’s the crunch of Murukulu or the savory goodness of Chivda, traditional Indian snacks have a special place in our hearts—and on our plates. But while these snacks are undeniably delicious, there’s a side to them that many of us might not be aware of: they’re often not as healthy as we’d like to think.

The Unseen Health Risks of Traditional Indian Snacks

Traditional Indian snacks are often deep-fried, laden with refined oils, and packed with excessive salt and preservatives. While they satisfy our cravings, they can also contribute to a host of health issues when consumed regularly, including weight gain, high cholesterol, hypertension, and even an increased risk of heart disease. The high-calorie content, coupled with low nutritional value, makes these snacks a less-than-ideal choice for those looking to maintain a healthy diet.

But don’t worry—there’s a way to enjoy the flavors you love without compromising your health.

How We’re Changing the Snack Game
At ShopFromBest, we believe that you shouldn’t have to choose between taste and health. That’s why we’ve introduced a range of millet-based snacks that deliver the same great taste of your favorite Indian treats but with a healthy twist. Our Little Millet Murukulu, Ragi Muruku, Bajra Chivda, and Kodo Millet Chivda are designed to be not only delicious but also packed with nutrition.

Let’s take a closer look at how these snacks can be a game-changer for your health.

Little Millet Murukulu: The Crunchy, Guilt-Free Snack

Murukulu is a beloved snack that’s hard to resist, but the traditional version can often be high in unhealthy fats and calories. Our Little Millet Murukulu offers the same satisfying crunch but with a healthier twist. Made from little millet, this snack is rich in dietary fiber, which aids in digestion and helps keep you feeling full longer. Little millet is also a great source of essential minerals like iron and magnesium, making this Murukulu a snack that not only satisfies your cravings but also supports your overall health. Enjoy the flavors you love without the guilt!

Ragi Muruku: Calcium-Rich Goodness

Ragi, or finger millet, is one of the most nutrient-dense grains available, especially when it comes to calcium. Our Ragi Muruku is perfect for those who want to maintain strong bones and teeth while enjoying a tasty snack. Unlike the traditional version, which might be low in nutrients, Ragi Muruku provides a significant calcium boost along with iron and antioxidants, making it a smart snack choice.

Bajra Chivda: A Heart-Healthy Snack

Chivda is a staple snack in many Indian households, but it’s often fried and high in unhealthy fats. Our Bajra Chivda is made with pearl millet, which is known for its high fiber content and heart-healthy benefits. Pearl millet can help lower cholesterol levels and regulate blood pressure, making our Bajra Chivda a healthier option that doesn’t sacrifice taste.

Kodo Millet Chivda: The Low-Glycemic Snack

For those concerned about blood sugar levels, our Kodo Millet Chivda is an excellent choice. Kodo millet has a low glycemic index, which means it helps regulate blood sugar and can be a great option for those managing diabetes. In addition, it’s rich in antioxidants and dietary fiber, promoting overall digestive health.
