When you think of beef exports, countries like Brazil and Argentina probably come to mind. But surprisingly, India has consistently ranked as one of the world’s largest beef exporters often taking the top spot.

This seems contradictory in a nation where cows are considered sacred, beef consumption is legally restricted in many states, and vegetarianism is widely promoted. So, how and why is India at the top of global beef exports?

Let’s break it down.

What Kind of “Beef” Is Exported From India?

India doesn’t primarily export cow beef (also called “beef” in most global markets). Instead, it exports buffalo meat, which is categorized internationally as "beef" for trade and statistical purposes.

Milk has long held a sacred place in Indian tradition. Often referred to as a sattvik food, it is considered pure, nourishing, and ideal for spiritual living. But in today’s commercialized world, the question must be asked , Is your cow’s milk still truly sattvik?

What Is Sattvik Food?

In Ayurveda and yogic philosophy, sattvik foods are those that:

• Are obtained without harm or violence

• Promote clarity, calmness, and spiritual growth

It has become common to scroll through your phone while eating. But did you know that this habit can elevate your blood sugar for longer periods and add more stress to your day?

Research and health professionals agree: distraction during meals disrupts your body’s natural cues, leading to overeating and extended sugar spikes. Here’s a detailed look into why you should skip the screen at mealtime and simple ways to keep your health on track.

Distraction During Meals = Longer Blood Sugar Spikes

Studies show that using a phone or tablet while eating often leaves us unaware of what or how much we’re consuming. This results in mindless eating, higher calorie intake, and less awareness of fullness.

One narrative review concluded that digital distractions at meals are linked to altered metabolic responses and elevated blood sugar levels.

Increased Calorie Intake and Poor Food Choices

In today’s fast-paced world, the desire for quick weight loss often leads people to pharmaceutical shortcuts. While weight loss drugs are gaining popularity for their rapid results, they come with serious side effects that are often ignored.

At the same time, AI-powered health technology from wearable devices to virtual health platforms is helping us understand our bodies better than ever before. But here's the truth: no technology can replace personal responsibility when it comes to long-term wellness.

This blog post uncovers the hidden risks of weight loss medications and explains why your daily lifestyle choices are still the most powerful tool for lasting health.
