Health Goals Suitability

Weight Loss

At 34.2 kcal per serving, this can fit into a weight loss diet with mindful portion control.

Diabetes

With a low glycemic index of 55, this recipe supports stable blood sugar levels.

Muscle Gain

Low protein content (1.9g per serving) — not sufficient alone for muscle building. Combine with high-protein sides like paneer, eggs, chicken, dal, or a protein shake to reach 25-30g protein per meal.

Heart Health

Low cholesterol (5.7mg) and low saturated fat (0.9g) make this heart-friendly. Anti-inflammatory ingredients benefit overall heart health. Low sodium content is ideal for blood pressure management.

PCOS

Women with PCOS should pair this with fiber-rich vegetables and a protein source to improve the insulin response.

Thyroid

No goitrogenic ingredients — generally safe for thyroid conditions. The iron content supports thyroid hormone production. The spices aid digestion, which can be sluggish in hypothyroidism.
