A staggering 17% of food available to consumers, which is about&nbsp; 931 million tonnes was wasted in 2019, a new report by the United Nations says.
The UN report says&nbsp;majority of the wasted food, that is about 61% came from households, 26% was wasted by the food service industry, while retail contributed to 13% of the wastage.
The report also noted that food wastage is not limited to developed countries like the United States or the United Kingdom.&nbsp;Many countries have not yet quantified their food waste, so they don't understand the magnitude of the problem.
South Asia is no better. In India, 50 kg of food per person per year goes to waste, 82 kg per person is wasted in Afghanistan and 79 kg per person is wasted in Nepal.

Mumbai's&nbsp;iconic Karachi Bakery has pulled down its shutters, months after it was targeted by the MNS.
In November 2020, MNS&nbsp;leader&nbsp;Haji Saif Shaikh had sent a legal notice to the owner of the bakery saying the word "Karachi" hurt sentiments of ordinary Indians and must be removed.&nbsp;In a tweet earlier this week, the MNS&nbsp;sought to claim credit for Karachi Bakery closing down.

A mineral that the body only needs in small amounts but is essential for the working of hundreds of enzymes, zinc is an important part of your diet.&nbsp;
It helps cell growth, synthesizes proteins and plays a vital role in supporting a healthy immune system. Harvard Health recommends&nbsp;that adult women should consume 8mg of zinc per day, while for adult men the recommended daily allowance (RDA) is 11mg.&nbsp;
Being a key helper in building immune cells, even a mild deficiency of this mineral can weaken your immunity, so here are some foods rich in zinc!&nbsp;
Shellfish such as oysters, crab and lobster are the best sources of zinc. Incorporate any of them in your diet once a week to get your fill.&nbsp;
If you start your morning with oats, you'll be happy to know that they are another good source of this mineral with one serving taking care of half of your day's zinc needs.
Add some pumpkin seeds to this mix and you have your zinc needs for the day sorted.
If you love nuts, have some cashews or almonds or both! While cashews are a richer source of zinc, almonds also offer a decent amount.&nbsp;
One of the most versatile and nutritious veggie foods, chickpeas are also rich in zinc. So make some hummus or have a plate of chhole masala!&nbsp;

They don't call it the 'root of immortality' for nothing. Giloy or Guduchi in Hindi is a herb that has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for years. &nbsp;
The herb is known for its immunity-boosting properties. A trove of antioxidants, Giloy helps the body fight various infections and purifies the blood.&nbsp;

In addition, it is believed the herb can aid skin regeneration and enhance the production of collagen. A paste made from Giloy leaves can be applied on wounds to accelerate recovery. &nbsp;
Diabetes patients or those with type-2 diabetes at least can benefit from Giloy consumption. As per studies, Giloy acts like a hypoglycaemic agent, which may also help in lowering blood sugar levels.&nbsp;
Experts, however, recommend that if you suffer from any kind of autoimmune diseases, it is best to avoid the herb since it may cause the immune system to become more active.&nbsp;
The best way to have it is in the form of a juice. Alternatively, you can mix some Guduchi powder with other things like amla or milk to extract its benefits.&nbsp;

Eye health is an important aspect of overall body health and there are some dietary habits that you can inculcate in your lifestyle to ensure that your eyes remain healthy and safe from chronic eye conditions. These could include cataracts, glaucoma and poor night vision.
Here&rsquo;s a list of foods that could help improve your eyesight:
Fish like salmon, is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids and could be great for the eyes. These &lsquo;healthy fats&rsquo; are needed for vision development and retina health. They even help prevent dry eyes. If you&rsquo;re a vegetarian, add nuts like walnuts and almonds, and chia or flaxseeds to your diet.
To improve night vision and prevent the onset of cataract, include foods rich in vitamin A and Zinc in your diet. Dairy is a good source of both. Yogurt and milk are easy to make a part of your daily diet.
Eat your greens! Dark leafy greens and vegetables like spinach and kale contain two of the most essential antioxidants needed for healthy eyes, known as zeaxanthin and lutein. These antioxidants are stored in the Macula, which protects the eyes from damaging light. Eat at least three servings of greens per week to see a real difference.
There could definitely be some truth behind the age-old adage that rabbits never wear glasses and it&rsquo;s because they&rsquo;re always munching on carrots. Rich in beta-carotene, which is converted into Vitamin A by the body, carrots could promote healthy vision. Eat them raw as a snack or make some carrot soup!

Eating 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day is associated with a reduced risk of early death, according to a new study released by the American Heart Association.&nbsp;
While two of these servings should be fruits, the other three should be vegetables. This amount offers the maximum benefits in terms of prevention of chronic diseases.
But, not all fruits and vegetables count!&nbsp;
The study suggests that starchy vegetables, peas, potatoes and corns do not offer the same benefits.
Green leafy vegetables, however, that are rich in vitamin C and beta carotene like spinach and kale, did show results.
Fruits including berries and citrus fruits were found to be beneficial. Fruit juice, however, did not fall in the category.

While you may love your morning cuppa, scientists say that drinking too much coffee can be detrimental to your heart health and could cause heart-related issues.

While you may love your morning cuppa, scientists say that drinking too much coffee can be detrimental&nbsp;to your heart health and could cause heart-related issues.
A study found that long-term, heavy coffee consumption - six or more cups a day - can increase the number of lipids (fats) in your blood to significantly heighten your risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).&nbsp;
High levels of blood lipids are a known risk factor for heart disease, and coffee beans contain a very potent cholesterol-elevating compound called&nbsp;cafestol.&nbsp;
However, there is very little cafestol in filtered and instant coffee, so with respect to effects on lipids, those are good coffee choices, researchers noted in their study.&nbsp;

Consuming a diet high in poor quality carbohydrates has many ill effects ranging from a higher risk of heart attacks to strokes, and even death finds a new study.&nbsp;
The global study discovered that higher risks of a diet high in poor quality carbs, called a high glycemic diet, were similar in both people who had previous cardiovascular disease and people who did not. White bread, rice, and potatoes have a high glycemic index.
In contrast, diets rich in high-quality carbohydrates such as fruit, vegetables, and legumes have beneficial effects, researchers noted publishing their findings in the&nbsp;New England Journal of Medicine.

Are you styling your hair too much? You may be damaging it beyond measure. Here's a breakdown of what too much colouring and perming could do to your tresses.

Are you styling your hair too much? You may be damaging it beyond measure. Here's a breakdown of what too much colouring and perming&nbsp;could do to your tresses.&nbsp;
According to WebMD, frequently highlighting and colouring your hair damages it internally, leading to dryness and lack of lustre.&nbsp;
Perming or chemically curling or straightening your hair breaks the inner bonds and reforms them in a new manner, thus weakening your hair.
Brushing your hair multiple times in a day seems like an easy way of smoothening&nbsp;them. But research shows that overbrushing&nbsp;causes too much friction, leading to split ends.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Who doesn't want a good hair day? But often the kind of tresses we have depend on a number of factors like genes, hormones, age and climate of the area you live in

Who doesn't want a good hair day? But often&nbsp;the kind of tresses we have depend on a number of factors like genes, hormones, age and climate of the area you live in, which you can't control. But&nbsp;one thing you can control is your diet, which&nbsp;also&nbsp; has a massive impact on the texture of your hair.
We take you through a host of foods that you must avoid if you suffer from hair damage and excessive hair fall.&nbsp;
1. Alcohol impacts the nutritional balance of the hair and leads to dead hair follicles.Too much alcohol destroys synthesis of keratin, the protein found in our hair.&nbsp; 2. Refined grains and starchy foods like white bread, pasta, croissants, cakes break down into sugar in the body, which in turn causes hair thinning and ultimately hair fall.&nbsp; 3. Fish is loaded with mercury, which could lead to sudden hair loss. Climate change over the past few years has&nbsp;lead&nbsp;to an increase in the content of methyl-mercury in fish, which could cause hair damage.&nbsp; 4. Full of artificial sweeteners, diet sodas are a strict no if you're looking to get healthy, lustrous&nbsp;hair without any hair fall.&nbsp; 5. Junk food hampers hair growth as well and could weaken hair follicles, leading to excessive hair fall.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Experts however don't recommend completely stopping the consumption of these foods and beverages but limiting their intake could help maintain the quality of your hair in the long run.

If you're planning to hit the gym, it is very important to monitor what you eat before your workout. The body needs fuel in order to perform to its full capacity to achieve your&nbsp;desired body goals.
We often hear of people working out on an empty stomach, hoping they would be able get rid of accumulated fat and in turn lose weight. However, experts have warned of the negative consequences associated with this. You may feel hungry in the middle of your exercise, leading to exhaustion and a lower intensity workout than what you intended.
On the other hand, you don't want your stomach to be too full, this may again interfere with the workout and make you feel sluggish, hindering you from giving in your best. So experts recommend choosing a middle ground.
While it depends on the kind of workout you do, a pre workout meal must comprise of a mix carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Carbs will give you that energy to glide through the exercise regimen while protein will build and repair muscles. But while choosing carbs, go in for complex carbohydrates that give energy gradually over a longer period of time. While choosing fats, go in for healthy, unsaturated ones.
Here's a list of the foods you can eat, based on the macro-nutrients
If you're looking for complex carbs, go in for things like lentils, beans, oats, oatmeal, sweet potatoes and broccoli. Whole grain bread or whole grain pasta also makes for a good choice. If you're looking for simple carbs, fruits make the cut. Bananas are are a great choice, they're a good source of potassium and antioxidants too.
You have to be cautious when it comes to choosing the right kind of fats. The body takes time to digest fats when compared to carbohydrates and may not be able to break them down before a workout. Some good fats can be found in nuts, seeds and avocados.
Protein-rich foods that make a good pre-workout snack include eggs, lean fish like tuna and salmon, chicken, nuts, peanut butter, protein rich yoghurt and soy. If building muscle is your goal, make sure you include adequate protein in your diet.
Overall, a good balanced meal with all the required nutrients is a must! The closer you are to the time of the workout, the meals must be easy to digest and simpler in a bid to avoid tummy troubles. Also remember, hydration is key. Staying hydrated has been linked to better performance so consume a good amount of water. The American College of Sports Medicine suggests drinking 0.5 to 0.6 litres of water at least 4 hours before working out. Some experts even recommend drinking beverages rich in sodium as it may help the body retain fluids.
So if you're looking to ace your workout, watch what you eat!
