The season of extended, leisurely afternoons, summer has some haters but most&nbsp;people love&nbsp;summer for its abundant&nbsp;sunshine&nbsp;and juicy fruits.&nbsp;No matter what side you&rsquo;re on, it is hard to ignore the fact that our body has very different needs in the hotter months.&nbsp;&nbsp;
As more and more people get accustomed to air conditioning, the body&rsquo;s natural capabilities to cool down have taken a toll. But following an Ayurvedic lifestyle and just updating your diet with the season&nbsp;can make a huge difference.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Take note of these tips to feel good this summer and embrace any adventures that the season may bring in your life!
HYDRATE BETTER!
We all know the importance of hydration in summer but according to Ayurveda, it is essential to drink your water at room temperature.&nbsp;Avoid icy-cold drinks and beverages that are caffeinated, carbonated or high in added sugar.&nbsp;&nbsp;
To keep your cool, drink buttermilk, coconut water&nbsp;and fruit juices&nbsp;without any&nbsp;added sugar.&nbsp;
PRACTICE&nbsp;COOLING YOGA&nbsp;&nbsp;
It is important to exercise every day but it may be a good idea to get done with&nbsp;your workout&nbsp;early&nbsp;morning before the sun gets too bright or do it after sunset.&nbsp;
You can also add some cooling&nbsp;yogasanas&nbsp;to your routine. Practice&nbsp;sheetali&nbsp;pranayama or cooling breath at least once a day to cool your body.&nbsp;&nbsp;
AVOID SPICY &amp; OILY FOOD
Avoid foods that will make your body produce more heat. Reduce your intake of spicy food and chillies. Summer is also a bad time to eat oily or fermented foods. So cut down on&nbsp;pickles and stale foods.&nbsp;&nbsp;
EAT RAW&nbsp;&nbsp;
What you can eat a lot of are raw fruits and vegetables. Enjoy summer fruits including watermelon, peaches, plums, mangoes,&nbsp;pears and avocados.&nbsp;A great way to eat raw food is to whip up delicious salads. Add veggies like&nbsp;asparagus, cucumber, cabbage, sweet potato and celery and garnish with cool herbs.&nbsp;&nbsp;
UPDATE YOUR SLEEP TIME&nbsp;&nbsp;
Lastly, you can change your bedtime in summer. As the sun sets much later, it is okay to sleep at 11 pm in the summer.&nbsp;Instead of forcing yourself to stay awake even as the sun tires you out, try to embrace daytime napping in the summer. A relaxing 30-minute nap during the day can do wonders for your energy levels.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Understanding the values behind Ayurvedic principles makes you better equipped to implement these changes in your life. Keep learning to keep improving!&nbsp;

Tomatoes Side Effects: However, there are also several side effects of overeating this fruit, which is often confused as a vegetable.

They often say that excess of everything is always bad and for good reason.&nbsp;Whether it's our yummy gravies, soups or salads, we use tomatoes in just about everything.&nbsp;Tomatoes for the most part are extremely healthy and a rich&nbsp;dietary source of the antioxidant lycopene.&nbsp;They are loaded with vitamin C,&nbsp;potassium,&nbsp;folate, and vitamin K.&nbsp;&nbsp;
However, there are also several side effects of overeating this fruit, which is often confused as a vegetable.&nbsp;
<h3>ACID REFLUX&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
Tomatoes are <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/acidity-and-heartburn-these-dietary-changes-can-help-1597829375981" target="_blank">acidic</a> and when over-consumed, they increase the acid amount in your stomach causing digestive issues.&nbsp;Overeating&nbsp;can also cause burning sensation in the bladder. If you have the problem of urinary tract infection, then&nbsp;tomatoes may aggravate your discomfort.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>KIDNEY STONES&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
Tomatoes are rich in potassium. People who have <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/want-to-avoid-kidney-stones-here-s-what-you-should-eat-1607252224254" target="_blank">kidney disease</a> are advised to reduce their potassium intake as tomatoes can oxalate&nbsp;and turn into&nbsp;kidney stones.&nbsp;
<h3>ALLERGIES&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
People who are <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/difference-respiratory-allergies-v-s-covid-19-v-s-common-cold-v-s-flu-1610088766369" target="_blank">allergic</a> to histamine compound may have an allergic reaction to tomatoes. This can cause eczema, rashes, itching, sore throat and swelling on the face.&nbsp;
<h3>MUSCLE PAIN&nbsp;</h3>
Tomato's histamine compound may cause <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/an-avocado-a-day-to-take-your-arthritis-pain-away-1600825525046" target="_blank">joint pain</a> and swelling. Some people also suffer from inflammation due to the&nbsp;solanine&nbsp;found in tomatoes. Too many tomatoes can also increase the chances of arthritis and muscle pain.
While there is little research on the maximum&nbsp;number&nbsp;of tomatoes you can eat in a day. Scientists say ideally one serving of tomatoes comprises either one whole regular tomato or six cherry tomatoes. So&nbsp;enjoy your tomatoes but spread out&nbsp;your&nbsp;intake throughout the week!

High-Protein Diet: Here are six protein-rich foods that can be consumed as healthy snacks on the go!

We&nbsp;all sometimes feel that little afternoon slump and crave a&nbsp;tasty&nbsp;treat&nbsp;to recharge our body&nbsp;to&nbsp;push through the rest of the&nbsp;day.&nbsp;The situation calls for a snack that can be easily made or just eaten out of the box.&nbsp;But more often than not, snacks&nbsp;just&nbsp;aren&rsquo;t as filling&nbsp;and we never know when to stop munching.&nbsp;&nbsp;
This is where protein-rich snacking can save the day. A vital nutrient for the body, protein will make sure that your snack will satiate your cravings and keep you full for longer.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2>Here are six protein-rich foods that can be consumed as healthy snacks on the go!&nbsp;&nbsp;</h2>
<h3>EGGS&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
<a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/brown-vs-white-eggs-let-s-get-cracking-1570710871119" target="_blank">Eggs</a> are compact packages of nutritive values. They are rich in protein as well as vitamin D and selenium. You can have&nbsp;a hard-boiled egg, an omelette or spruce up a quick egg salad.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>YOGURT&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
Snack on half a cup of plain <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/curd-rice-the-ultimate-comfort-food-1599990343359" target="_blank">yogurt</a> for about 11 grams of protein intake. If you&rsquo;re&nbsp;in the mood for something sweet, add some berries, dates or nuts of your choice.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>NUTS &amp; SEEDS&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
They&rsquo;re portable and require zero prep time. Munch on some roasted nuts like almonds, <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/peanuts-for-weight-loss-do-they-really-help-1597717989211" target="_blank">peanuts or&nbsp;walnuts</a> on the go. Amongst seeds, shelled pumpkin seeds in particular are a rich protein source. Make a trail mix with all your favourites!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>PANEER&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
<a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/tofu-vs-paneer-which-one-is-healthier-for-your-body-1601472076960" target="_blank">Paneer</a> or cottage cheese isn&rsquo;t just for shahi dishes&nbsp;and&nbsp;paneer tikka. For healthy snacking, you can have a single serving of paneer with a little bit of salt and pepper, whip&nbsp;up&nbsp;a paneer&nbsp;salad or make a&nbsp;quick&nbsp;paneer sandwich.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>CHIA/SABJA SEEDS</h3>
Soak some <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/fascinating-health-benefits-of-sabja-seeds-1618062380080" target="_blank">chia or&nbsp;sabja&nbsp;seeds</a> in water and enjoy the magic. The rich, gooey mixture is loaded with important&nbsp;nutrients and a whole lot of protein. You can make a healthy drink&nbsp;with&nbsp;soaked&nbsp;chia seeds&nbsp;and turn it into a sweet pudding with some honey and berries.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>PEANUT BUTTER&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
<a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/peanuts-for-weight-loss-do-they-really-help-1597717989211" target="_blank">Peanut butter</a> is the holy grail of snacking but make sure you buy pure sugar-free peanut butter with zero additives. Whether you like it crunchy or smooth, you can snack on&nbsp;just a spoon of this butter or spread it over&nbsp;roti or some toasted bread.&nbsp;
There&rsquo;s no avoiding a mid-meal or late-night craving but keeping the right snacks by your side will help you steer clear of&nbsp;unhealthy binge eating habits.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Covid-19 Diet: Staying adequately hydrated before and after getting your vaccine is very important. So, drink plenty of fluids!

If you&rsquo;re eligible to get a jab of the<a href="https://www.editorji.com/covid-19" target="_blank"> Covid-19 vaccine</a>, go and get it but bear these&nbsp;health tips in mind to reduces your chances of facing&nbsp;any side effects.&nbsp;
Staying&nbsp;adequately hydrated before and after getting&nbsp;your&nbsp;vaccine is&nbsp;very important.&nbsp;So, drink plenty of fluids!&nbsp;&nbsp;
However, fluids&nbsp;do&nbsp;not include alcohol. You should strictly avoid alcohol as it can weaken your natural immunity and make it hard for the vaccine to do its job.&nbsp;&nbsp;
In terms of eating, there are no strict rules.&nbsp;But you must not fast&nbsp;or try drastic diets&nbsp;before the vaccine so&nbsp;definitely&nbsp;don&rsquo;t go to the vaccine centre on an empty stomach.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Stick to a regular, home-cooked balanced meal.&nbsp;Avoid eating processed&nbsp;or sugary&nbsp;foods&nbsp;as they put your body under a lot of unnecessary strain.&nbsp;Apart from a healthy diet, make sure you get a good night&rsquo;s rest before the shot&nbsp;day.&nbsp;&nbsp;
When it comes to post-vaccine care, the same rules apply.
Try to plan ahead and eat foods that are easy to digest. If you&rsquo;re facing post-vaccine side-effects like nausea, fever, headache or tiredness, don&rsquo;t stress about it. Eat like you would during a common flu episode.&nbsp;&nbsp;
If you live alone, it might be a good idea to do some post-vaccine grocery shopping, in case you don&rsquo;t feel great enough to step out.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Here are a few naturally cooling and water-rich foods that you must consume in the summer season.

Whether it&rsquo;s the wrath of the summer gods or just&nbsp;humanity-induced&nbsp;climate change, the summer heat is&nbsp;here in all its glory.&nbsp;As the mercury reaches higher levels that go beyond scorching, you can often feel drained, fatigued and dehydrated.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Luckily, the wisdom of Ayurvedic&nbsp;healing is here to the rescue. According to Ayurveda, it is essential to change&nbsp;your dietary habits and lifestyle with the change in seasons.
Here are a few naturally cooling and water-rich foods that you must consume in the summer season.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2>CUCUMBER&nbsp;</h2>
<a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/why-cucumber-is-your-skin-s-best-friend-1598888000363" target="_blank">Cucumbers</a> are not just the best way to add some crunch to your salad, they are also rich in antioxidants, promote hydration and help cool your body.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2>CURD&nbsp;&nbsp;</h2>
Rich in probiotics, <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/curd-rice-the-ultimate-comfort-food-1599990343359" target="_blank">curd</a> is great for your gut and helps soothe your stomach, making it a great summer&nbsp;saviour.&nbsp;Have some spiced buttermilk or whip up some good ol'&nbsp;cold, sweet lassi&nbsp;to quench your thirst.&nbsp;
<h2>BOTTLE GOURD&nbsp;</h2>
<a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/bitter-truth-why-bitter-gourd-is-good-for-you-1607333154615" target="_blank">Bottle gourd</a> or&nbsp;lauki&nbsp;as we call it in India is a summer treasure.&nbsp;The green vegetable is about 92 per cent water and rich in vitamin C,&nbsp;K and calcium. Embrace&nbsp;lauki&nbsp;ki&nbsp;sabzi or have green&nbsp;lauki&nbsp;juice.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2>MINT&nbsp;&nbsp;</h2>
There&rsquo;s a reason why <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/magical-mint-get-radiant-skin-with-this-super-herb-1597745577655" target="_blank">mint or pudina</a> is a staple in summer drinks, chutneys&nbsp;and desserts. Load up on this cooling&nbsp;and refreshing&nbsp;herb&nbsp;to help&nbsp;keep headaches, bad breath and indigestion at bay.&nbsp;
<h2>WATERMELON&nbsp;&nbsp;</h2>
Melons are synonymous with summers. Melon, <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/bolster-your-immunity-with-the-wonders-of-watermelon-1597401547320" target="_blank">watermelon</a> or cantaloupes are all great ways to stay hydrated and keep your minerals and&nbsp;electrolytes&nbsp;in check.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2>COCONUT WATER&nbsp;</h2>
There&rsquo;s nothing like <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/how-healthy-is-coconut-water-for-your-body-1599032659946" target="_blank">coconut water</a> to quench your thirst in summer. It is a great source of vital nutrients and&nbsp;electrolytes,&nbsp;some even call&nbsp;it nature&rsquo;s own energy drink.
The change in seasons can be often tough on the internal systems but it always helps to listen to your body and just pay attention to your cravings.&nbsp;

Diet For Kids: there are some seemingly simple food groups that could prove to be dangerous for young children.

The first few years of a baby&rsquo;s life are crucial to the development of their immune systems.&nbsp;In particular, the first 5 years of life are pivotal in shaping one&rsquo;s immunity and this is why it is all the more important to provide the right kind of nutrition from a young age.&nbsp;&nbsp;
While it is important to introduce new flavours and textures to your little one&rsquo;s tongue, there are some seemingly simple food groups that could prove to be dangerous for young children.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2>Salt</h2>
First up on our list is salt! Babies don&rsquo;t need to consume much salt and&nbsp;their kidneys are just not ready for it.&nbsp;The NHS UK advises that if you&rsquo;re feeding your baby the same food that you eat then avoid bacon, crackers,&nbsp;chips and&nbsp;packaged or ready to eat meals.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2>Sugar&nbsp;</h2>
Sugar is another food group that little ones don't really need.&nbsp;So,&nbsp;avoid sugary&nbsp;snacks,&nbsp;drinks&nbsp;and treats.&nbsp;Studies show that eating&nbsp;super sweet&nbsp;foods throughout&nbsp;childhood, especially before the age of two,&nbsp;can lead to preventable diseases, such as&nbsp;heart disease,&nbsp;obesity&nbsp;and high blood pressure&nbsp;later on in life.&nbsp;
<h2>Honey&nbsp;</h2>
You should also avoid giving any form of honey to the baby until the age of one.&nbsp;Occasionally, honey may contain certain bacteria&nbsp;that can secrete toxins into the baby&rsquo;s intestines and cause infant botulism.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2>Citrus fruits</h2>
Citrus fruits&nbsp;are&nbsp;another food group that is best avoided. These tangy fruits and juices are loaded with vitamin C and are acidic in nature.&nbsp;These may cause acid reflux and stomach troubles in babies younger than two months.
<h2>Nuts and Seeds</h2>
When it comes to nuts and seeds, everyone agrees that they can be a choking hazard and should be strictly avoided until the age of five. But nut butters are where things get interesting. Studies have&nbsp;shown that introducing a tiny amount of peanut butter in your kid&rsquo;s diet may&nbsp;help&nbsp;prevent peanut allergies.
While the science is clear on most of these facts, it is best to consult your doctor before making sudden changes in your baby&rsquo;s diet.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Most of us know that unhealthy snacking late at night can lead to bloating and other health problems. Now, researchers have found that the practice can hamper your performance at work as well!&nbsp;
A study by US scientists shows that late-night binging can make a person less helpful and more withdrawn at work the very next day.&nbsp;
"For the first time, we have shown that healthy eating immediately affects our workplace behaviours and performance," the lead author of the study exclaims.&nbsp;
For the study, unhealthy eating was defined as indulging in junk foods, drinking alcohol late at night or overeating close to bedtime. Interestingly,&nbsp;when people reported unhealthy eating, they were also more likely to report emotional strains the next morning - such as feeling guilty or ashamed about their diet choices.
While their study focused on only evening diets, the researchers say it would be intriguing to study how other elements of diet such as sugar or caffeine, will impact productivity at work.&nbsp;

Indian cuisine goes heavy on local spices and&nbsp;our dishes are not just tasty but also loaded with many health benefits. Indian spices attract global trade and for good reason.&nbsp;Spices, in particular, have piqued the curiosity of many international and local researchers as well.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Here are five such spices that scientists suggest may help you achieve your weight loss goals.&nbsp;&nbsp;
TURMERIC
A bright, yellow spice, turmeric is&nbsp;known&nbsp;for its antiseptic and medicinal properties. According to various studies, the&nbsp;curcumin&nbsp;in turmeric has been shown to&nbsp;boost fat loss, increase body heat and boost metabolism.
CINNAMON
Known as the holiday spice, a little bit of cinnamon can go a long way. Research shows that cinnamon may help balance sugar, reduce hunger pangs and keep you full for longer.&nbsp;Add cinnamon to your spice rub and sprinkle a little over your coffee to reap its benefits.&nbsp;&nbsp;
FENNEL SEEDS
A natural diuretic, fennel seeds are also great for people trying to lose weight. Chewing on some&nbsp;fennel seeds after your meal can help keep your digestive health in check.&nbsp;
CAYENNE PEPPER&nbsp;&nbsp;
The hot and spicy Cayenne pepper is rich in capsaicin. The chemical is known to&nbsp;have fat-burning properties and some studies also show that it may lower bad cholesterol levels.&nbsp;
CUMIN
Cumin is a staple in many Indian curries. A 2015 study found that just one&nbsp;spoon of cumin powder helped&nbsp;burn up to three times more body fat amongst a group of overweight women.&nbsp;The spice is also rich in natural antioxidants and has an anti-inflammatory effect on the body.&nbsp;&nbsp;
While there is no quick-fix solution for weight loss, incorporating these spices in your diet will definitely help you on your fitness journey.

We often talk about finding the silver lining but when it comes to India’s favourite metal...no one can deny our love for luminous gold. From kaju

We often talk about finding the silver lining but when it comes to India&rsquo;s favourite metal...no one can deny our love for luminous gold.&nbsp;From&nbsp;kaju&nbsp;katli&nbsp;to&nbsp;gujia, silver-coated sweetmeats are already a common fare in the country, but now our&nbsp;obsession with gold has transcended to the culinary world as well.&nbsp;&nbsp;
A certain&nbsp;paan&nbsp;shop in Delhi has even gone viral on social media for its&nbsp;rafaello&nbsp;gold&nbsp;paan&nbsp;that is being sold for 600 rupees.&nbsp;Yamu&rsquo;s&nbsp;Panchayat&nbsp;loads the&nbsp;paan&nbsp;with the traditional&nbsp;chuna, fennel seeds and of course,&nbsp;gulkand. But the hero is its wrapping of&nbsp;&lsquo;pure gold&rsquo;&nbsp;varq&nbsp;and a chocolate topping.&nbsp;&nbsp;
But this is far from the first eatery to experiment with gold-plated food.&nbsp;
In Dubai, the home of gold lovers, a hotel actually sells gold-plated coffee!&nbsp;Named &lsquo;The Ultimate Gold Cappuccino&rsquo;,&nbsp;it&nbsp;is served at the&nbsp;Burj Al Arab&nbsp;Jumeirah hotel for $26 or nearly 2,000 rupees.&nbsp;Laced with 24-karat gold, the&nbsp;signature coffee was spotted on the Instagram page of&nbsp;former actor Sana Khan recently.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Gold-plated&nbsp;dosas&nbsp;are quite the buzz&nbsp;in Southern India.&nbsp;The&nbsp;luxury&nbsp;concept originally&nbsp;shot to fame&nbsp;after a restaurant in Bangalore&nbsp;launched a&nbsp;24-karat&nbsp;gold-plated&nbsp;dosa&nbsp;worth over 1,000 rupees&nbsp;as a marketing strategy.&nbsp;Now,&nbsp;the&nbsp;shiny&nbsp;dish&nbsp;is&nbsp;part of the permanent menu&nbsp;at&nbsp;several restaurants&nbsp;across South India.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Burgers are synonymous with fast food and we often associate them with quick, affordable meals but not this one! A restaurant in Colombia gave&nbsp;its burger a luxurious twist with 24-karat gold.&nbsp;The burger, bathed in gold, costs 200,000 Columbian Pesos or nearly 4,200 rupees. The restaurant even claimed that the gold used is in its purest form.&nbsp;
No golden food list would be complete without dessert. In fact, the world&rsquo;s most expensive dessert, an ice cream sundae by a New York restaurant, features gold as one of its hero ingredients. Priced at a record $25,000 or&nbsp;18.3 lakh rupees, &lsquo;The&nbsp;Frrrozen&nbsp;Haute Chocolate ice cream sundae&rsquo; boasts of a&nbsp;coating of 5 grams of edible 23-karat gold.&nbsp;What&rsquo;s more, the dessert is served in a goblet lined with edible gold and is to be eaten with a golden spoon.&nbsp;
Gold-plated food sounds like the perfect way to taste luxury,&nbsp;but is there anything to it beyond a beautiful Instagram picture? While we know that&nbsp;consuming edible&nbsp;gold is&nbsp;generally&nbsp;safe, we wonder whether you can actually reap any of its healing benefits on a burger or even ice cream for that matter?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Beetroot juice benefits: From improving digestion to being a great source of vitamin C, we're no strangers to the benefits of juicy beetroots.

From improving digestion to being a great source of vitamin C, we're no strangers to the benefits of juicy beetroots. While you may have heard many of these, new research has found that drinking beetroot juice can also result in healthy ageing.&nbsp;
The study, published in the Redox Biology journal, showed that the consumption of beetroot juice helps produce a set of mouth bacteria that are associated with healthier brain function and blood vessels.
Beetroots and other foods including lettuce, spinach, and celery are rich in a certain compound that helps regulate the growth of a healthy oral bacteria that tends to diminish with age in older people.
The results of the study associated higher levels of bacteria with good vascular and cognitive health and lower levels of bacteria were linked to disease and inflammation.

BV Subba Rao Hegde, an 84-year-old man from Shivamogga&nbsp;in Karnataka&nbsp;has been continuously&nbsp;working towards preserving over 100 varieties&nbsp;of mangoes, in his backyard!
His passion for mangoes comes from his craze for mango pickle.
He visited over 16 villages in the Western Ghats to collect local varieties of 'appe&nbsp;midis' or the mangoes most commonly used as pickles.
Now, his tiny backyard is flourishing with these different varieties.&nbsp;
Hegde&nbsp;was also honoured with the 'Award of Excellence' for innovative farming at the National Horticulture Fair 2021.

Forget Delhi's famous chaat or Mumbai's iconic vada pavs- this street food found in Uttar Pradesh,&nbsp;cooked in sand, is becoming quite a sensation.
In a video shared by blogger Amar Sirohi, which is going massively viral, a street vendor in Mainpuri is seen sauteeing potatoes in a large wok-like bowl of sand over a burning furnace.&nbsp;After cooking them for 20 minutes, the potatoes are served hot with a chutney and a unique masala for Rs 25
The Internet is impressed with the unique street food called&nbsp;Bhuna Aloo

Holi comes not just with a splash of colours, but also with a special appetite for festive food. Gujiya is the most loved sweet on the Holi menu. This stuffed and fried treat is full of sinful goodness that often reminds us of our grandma&rsquo;s kitchen. Interestingly, Gujiya transforms seamlessly in the Indian subcontinent as Purukiya in Bihar, Ghughra in Gujarat, Karanji in Maharashtra and Odisha, Karachika in Tamil Nadu, Kajjikaya in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka and Nevri in Goa. But is this oh-so-Indian sweet really Indian? While the gujiya holds a special place in our hearts, on the map, it might have a different origin. Sambusa, a savoury filled fried snack travelled from the middle east to become Samosa in India. It is believed that the sambusa and the baklava from Turkey are distant cousins of the gujiya. The different regions adapted the gujiya with various fillings, from milk-based fillings using khoya to coconut and dry fruits. So, maybe next time you indulge in a beloved tradit

Kalonji&nbsp;also called black seeds or Nigella seeds, lend a nice flavour to any culinary dish. The tiny seeds come with a host of benefits as well. They aid weight loss and alleviate joint pain but they have even more to offer. Kalonji&nbsp;seeds are a powerhouse for&nbsp;healthy skin and hair! Let's dive in:
