Common Mistakes
Using too much oil or ghee
Why it matters: Excess oil can double the calorie content without adding nutritional value.
Fix: Measure oil with a tablespoon instead of pouring freely. 1 tbsp = 120 kcal.
Adding salt without measuring
Why it matters: Excess sodium increases blood pressure risk. Indian cooking already uses salt-heavy ingredients like pickles and chutneys alongside.
Fix: Use ½ teaspoon salt and taste before adding more. Account for sodium from other meal components.
Not measuring serving size
Why it matters: The nutrition values are for 1 standard serving. Eating 2-3x the serving means 2-3x the kcal (478.7-718.1 kcal).
Fix: Use the Hint app to scan and log the exact portion you eat for accurate tracking.
