7-Day Indian Anti-Inflammatory Meal Plan (Vegetarian + Balanced)

 


Understanding Inflammation: Why It Matters

Inflammation is the body’s natural defense mechanism. However, when it becomes chronic due to poor diet, stress, lack of sleep, or sedentary lifestyle, it contributes to:

  • Weight gain and belly fat

  • PCOD/PCOS symptoms

  • Thyroid imbalance

  • Insulin resistance

  • Joint pain

  • Gut issues and acidity

  • Low immunity

The good news? The right foods can actively reduce inflammatory markers and improve overall metabolic health.


Core Principles of an Indian Anti-Inflammatory Diet

This meal plan focuses on:

? Seasonal vegetables
? Whole grains & millets (ragi, jowar, bajra)
? High-fiber dals and legumes
? Nuts and seeds (walnuts, flaxseeds, chia)
? Fermented foods (curd, buttermilk)
? Anti-inflammatory spices (turmeric + black pepper, ginger, cinnamon)
? Cold-pressed oils in limited quantity

It avoids:

? Refined flour (maida)
? White sugar and packaged sweets
? Deep-fried snacks
? Excess refined oils
? Processed foods
? Sugary beverages
