Health Goals Suitability
Weight Loss
At just 136.7 kcal per serving, this is an excellent choice for weight management. The low-calorie vegetables keep the energy density low.
Diabetes
With a low glycemic index of 44, this recipe supports stable blood sugar levels. The 2.7g fiber further slows glucose absorption.
Muscle Gain
Low protein content (2.4g 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 (19.5mg) and low saturated fat (4.8g) make this heart-friendly. Low sodium content is ideal for blood pressure management.
PCOS
Low GI (44) with 2.7g fiber supports insulin sensitivity — key for PCOS management.
Thyroid
Contains cruciferous vegetables which are goitrogenic when raw. However, cooking significantly reduces goitrogen activity. If you have hypothyroidism, ensure these are well-cooked and maintain a gap of 30-60 minutes from thyroid medication.

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.
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 (273.5-410.2 kcal).
Fix: Use the Hint app to scan and log the exact portion you eat for accurate tracking.
